Avax was also a great performer for this year. It may not be as much as SOL but if we're going to look at its gains, it's almost half of what SOL did gained.
Started from $11 this start of the year and ending in $48 so, that's around 4 times of gain and likely a smooth transaction. May not be 10x of gain but it's going there I guess.
I do feel you should again buy Solana as it will be pumping
It's scary to get into SOL because it's likely that you'll catch the falling knives.
