Cryptocurrencies to reach $100 billion market cap by 2026:
๐ฏSolana :
Solana
$SOL , currently valued at roughly $72.6 billion, would need to grow by about 38% to hit the $100 billion threshold. That trajectory appears increasingly plausible given the chainโs improving fundamentals.
๐Notably, Solana is preparing for the
#AlpenglowUpgrade , the most significant consensus overhaul in its history.
๐Combined with the upcoming Firedancer validator client, which has demonstrated massive throughput capacity in testing, Solana is building the infrastructure required to support institutional-scale usage and high-frequency decentralized applications.
๐Its expanding footprint in real-world asset tokenization, growing
#DApp revenues, and deepening staking activity further reinforce the bullish outlook.
Tron
$TRX :
Tron (TRX), meanwhile, sits at a market capitalization of approximately $26 billion, meaning it would need to nearly quadruple, rising by about 284%, to reach the $100 billion mark.
๐The network has evolved into the dominant global infrastructure for USDT transactions, handling the majority of retail-sized
#stablecoin transfers thanks to its extremely low fees and high reliability.
๐Reports indicate that Tron averages more than 2.6 million daily active users, with most on-chain activity tied to wallet-to-wallet payments.
๐Recent governance-driven fee reductions, upgraded virtual-machine efficiency, and expanding cross-chain integrations, including native
#MetaMask support, are positioning Tron as the backbone for fast, inexpensive digital payments across emerging markets.
