Ethereum $2,626.9 And the community is experiencing significant difficulties with the influence of competing platforms, which are advantageous in terms of ease of use. Platforms such as Solana from competitors and increasing Layer 2 solutions continue to attract users’ attention.
Increased impact of competition
Ethereum, Bitcoin 
$96,171.6 And in the face of great competitors such as Solana, it is behind price performance. In the last 12 months, Ether increased by 5.9 %, while Bitcoin and Solana rose by 100.58 %and 85 %, respectively. This refers to the concern that investors may increase the tendency to turn to other networks instead of Ethereum.
The Ethereum community tries to meet the product-market harmony considering the needs of the market rather than technological developments. The Layer 2 solutions developed by the network for scalability helps the main network to perform operations with high efficiency, while the transfer of functions to different blockchains led to complexity in the user experience.
Future Strategies
The increase in platforms with a user -friendly structure shakes Ethereum’s place in the market. Solana stands out with its regular structure that users can perform their operations with a single wallet, and the low transaction fees is preferred. In addition, the basic advantages of Ethereum, such as robustness, security and decentralization, can create significant references for applications in the field of corporate finance.
