$SOL is worth 2x $TRX, but TRON holds 6x the stablecoins.

Two heavyweight L1s.

One dominates high-throughput DeFi and trading. The other dominates stablecoin settlement.

$SOL vs $TRX
Head to Head Series, L1 Edition

$SOL: the higher-beta smart contract bet.

→ Price: $104.40
→ Market cap: $61.6B
→ 24h volume: $2.23B
→ FDV: $66.4B
→ Circulating supply: 589.7M / 636.3M
→ DeFi TVL: $5.87B
→ Stablecoins: $15.8B
→ DEX volume: $2.12B/day
→ Chain fees: $26.9M over 30 days

Solana still shows huge onchain activity across DeFi, trading, stablecoins and consumer apps.

Alpenglow went live on mainnet on Oct 21, targeting about 150ms finality, down from roughly 12.8 seconds.

Flip side: the biggest scheduled catalyst is now behind it, and $SOL is still down 64% from its ATH.

$TRX: the stablecoin settlement machine.

→ Price: $0.329
→ Market cap: $31.3B
→ 24h volume: $335M
→ FDV: $31.3B
→ Circulating supply: 95.0B (fully circulating)
→ DeFi TVL: $5.51B
→ Stablecoins: $94.4B
→ Chain fees: $23.8M over 30 days

TRON’s edge is stablecoins. Messari counted $87.9B in USDT on TRON at the end of Q2, with $2.1T in transfers during the quarter.

Recent expansion includes Ethena’s USDe and sUSDe, an OpenZeppelin integration, and continued growth in payments.

Flip side: about 98% of TRON’s stablecoin supply is USDT, and its DEX volume is roughly 1/40th of Solana’s.

My take:

$SOL is the stronger all-around L1 growth bet.
$TRX is the focused bet on stablecoins, payments and global settlement.

Growth and ecosystem: $SOL.
Stablecoin dominance and cash flow: $TRX.

Which L1 has the better setup from here?

@Usoppu Nothing beats having total control of your time

@cryptorover Retails needs the market to get positive

Only 4 of 11 RWA tokens are green since the SEC staff’s statement on tokenized securities on Jan 28, and the median token is down about 15%.

If you’d put $10,000 into each of these RWA tokens on Jan 28, today you’d have:

$QNT: $24,032 | +140.3%
$INJ: $18,238 | +82.4%
$ONDO: $12,599 | +26.0%
$SKY: $10,793 | +7.9%
$LINK: $9,682 | -3.2%
$XLM: $8,468 | -15.3%
$AVAX: $7,677 | -23.2%
$HBAR: $7,489 | -25.1%
$ALGO: $7,418 | -25.8%
$VET: $5,979 | -40.2%
$SYRUP: $5,355 | -46.4%

The SEC headline didn’t lift the sector. $QNT more than doubled your money and $INJ came close, while $VET and $SYRUP lost 40% or more.

The market has rewarded a few names, not RWA as a whole.

Which RWA token are you still holding?

@shadowaguy @ziwenxu_ The volume is nothing for a model tho

With AI doing some crazy shit I really wonder what Hollywood looks like after 3 to 5 years

@ziwenxu_ showcases Gus & Spark, a 3D cartoon reportedly built entirely through code with Claude Opus 5.5, without AI video generators.

The numbers are wild: 34K lines of code, 986M tokens, 37K+ rendered frames, and roughly $370 in API costs.

Claude helped build a custom animation engine, direct the story, and create parts of the 3D world over 15+ hours.

The visuals may spark debate, but the bigger signal is clear: AI is moving from generating clips to building the systems that create entire episodes.

Watch the video and ask yourself: how long before one person can run an entire animation studio with AI?

Top L2s by weekly active wallets:

opBNB: 2.7M
Base: 1.4M
Robinhood Chain: 938.9K
Celo: 785.3K
Arbitrum One: 557.4K
Immutable: 132.6K
World Chain: 118.6K
X Layer (OKX): 115.3K
OP Mainnet: 68.5K

The gap between the top five and the rest is huge. The top five hold about 94% of the activity, with roughly 6.4M weekly wallets between them. The next four combined have 435K.

opBNB alone has nearly double Base’s weekly wallets, and Robinhood Chain is already third.

Which L2 are you actually using?

The next U.S. midterms are on November 3, 2026. Here’s what happened to the top USA-based crypto tokens since the last midterms.

Nov 8, 2022 close → today:

$ZEC: $42.21 → $1,257.79 (+2,880%)
$SOL: $24.36 → $104.62 (+329%)
$XRP: $0.409 → $1.33 (+225%)
$RENDER: $0.610 → $1.84 (+201%)
$BCH: $103.29 → $276.14 (+167%)
$XLM: $0.099 → $0.178 (+79%)
$LINK: $7.72 → $12.07 (+56%)
$UNI: $6.07 → $7.10 (+17%)
$LTC: $57.50 → $59.48 (+3.5%)
$DOGE: $0.089 → $0.079 (-11%)
$ADA: $0.373 → $0.217 (-42%)

Bitcoin did +342% over the same stretch. Only $ZEC beat it.

Election cycles grab headlines, but they don’t tell you when crypto has bottomed. In 2022, FTX was collapsing right around Election Day.

Now another midterm is coming, and these tokens tell very different stories. Some are up multiples. Others are still below their 2022 prices.

Which one has the best setup heading into November 3?
