I think choosing Ethereum is better way for invesment. Because we know that there is no Altcoin that is more famous than Ethereum and especially in a few moments there will be an ETF on Ethereum, of course this will make the price more higher. The only problem currently with Ethereum is that it has huge fees. This is of course because the blockchain is very dense. But I'm sure this will be improved by the developer soon.
I think Solana was only chosen because of its lower costs making it an alternative for shipping. If I can say, I prefer BNB over Solana. BNB is more popular than Solana. However, BNB has shortcomings because it is a coin developed by Binance, and many speculate said that BNB will collapse if Binance breaks down. CMIIW.
