Standard Chartered Bank stated that @solana is "shifting from memecoins to micropayments."
The bank lowered its year-end 2026 price target for SOL to $250, but raised its long-term forecast, expecting SOL to reach $2,000 by 2030.
Analysts: Solana's ultra-low fees have opened the door to stablecoin-driven micropayments.
However, @ethereum remains Standard Chartered's near-term top pick. The bank expects ETH to outperform other cryptocurrencies in 2026.
