Many young people from Generation Z and millennials now prefer Solana (SOL) as their first crypto, compared to Bitcoin. This makes Solana the most popular crypto among beginners.
This is happening because Solana is considered easier to use and more affordable for new investors, leading them to choose Solana alongside Bitcoin and Ethereum.
According to data, 59% of Generation Z already own Solana, while millennials are at 37%. This means these two generations are looking for other crypto options, not just Bitcoin and Ethereum.
However, this popularity is not reflected in Solana's price performance. In the past year, Solana's price has dropped about 53% from its highest price, which reached ±US$294.
As a note, Generation Z consists of those under 25 years old, while millennials are aged 25–40 years.
This is not financial advice. Always do your own research before investing.
