Kanye West’s launch of his Yeezy coin on the Solana network has sent shockwaves through the cryptocurrency market. Trading volumes soared on the platform, with the token quickly becoming a subject of discussion and speculation. While some experts have linked this to potential retail activity spurred by celebrity endorsements, others are cautious about the long-term implications. The token’s debut on the Solana blockchain, chosen instead of Ethereum, has triggered comparisons with past challenges faced by Ethereum in handling massive transactions. This choice might signal a shift in market focus toward cryptocurrencies that offer greater scalability and faster transaction speeds, especially as concerns around congestion on Ethereum continue to rise.
