He noted that Optimism has now taken the lead over Solana, which is a worrying sign for those invested in the latter.<\/p>\n<p>Van Ness also mentioned that the circulating supply of Optimism is only 5% of its total supply, which was news to him when he initially tweeted about the flippening. He clarified that he has no investment opinion on either of the cryptocurrencies and that this is not financial advice.<\/p>\n<p>However, he did express that he believes Optimism will likely be around for the long term and could potentially be a profitable business with its optirolls. On the other hand, he doubted that SOL would last more than a cycle.<span data-ez-name=\"tronweekly_com-box-4\"><\/span><\/p>\n<p>A community member<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/apolynya\/status\/1621701373602729985\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">\u00a0commented<\/a>\u00a0on van Ness\u2019s tweet, stating that Optimism is even worse than Solana right now and that he should know better than to promote a low circulating supply of trash.<\/p>\n<p>Van Ness responded by arguing that he was not shilling either of the cryptocurrencies and that he just found the flippening interesting and thought to tweet about it.<\/p>\n<p>Another individual<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/0x_Kun\/status\/1621697826588884992\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">\u00a0commented<\/a>\u00a0on van Ness\u2019s tweet, accused him of promoting a liquidity pump, and criticized his use of \u201cX has surpassed Y due to fundamentals.\u201d The commenter went on to question the validity of van Ness\u2019s analysis, suggesting that if Luna Classic was up, it must also be due to fundamentals.<\/p>\n<p>In<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/evan_van_ness\/status\/1621699425432133632\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">\u00a0response<\/a>\u00a0to the individual\u2019s comment, van Ness stated that they were projecting and that he did not have any significant holdings in either Optimism (OP) or Solana.\u00a0<\/p>\n<figure>\n<div>\n<article role=\"article\" data-focusable=\"true\" tabindex=\"0\" onmouseover=\"this.style.backgroundColor='rgb(245, 248, 258)\"http:\/\/www.tronweekly.com\/\" onmouseout=\"this.style.backgroundColor='rgb(255,255,255)\"http:\/\/www.tronweekly.com\/\"><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/evan_van_ness\/status\/1621699425432133632?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1621699425432133632%7Ctwgr%5E%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&#038;ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fpublish.twitter.com%2F%3Fquery%3Dhttps3A2F2Ftwitter.com2Fevan_van_ness2Fstatus2F1621699425432133632widget%3DTweet\" target=\"_blank\" role=\"link\" data-focusable=\"true\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><\/a><\/p>\n<div>\n<p><span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.twitter.com\/0x_Kun\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">@0x_Kun<\/a> You&#8217;re projecting.<br \/>\nI don&#8217;t own any meaningful $OP or $SOL<br \/>\nMy only real position is that Sqlana is ???? and will be worth much less than $OP in the long-term<br \/>\nBc rollups have good biz models<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/Neb4z5EsIM\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/t.co\/Neb4z5EsIM<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div data-hasmedia=\"false\"><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/evan_van_ness\/status\/1621699425432133632\/photo\/1?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1621699425432133632%7Ctwgr%5E%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&#038;ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fpublish.twitter.com%2F%3Fquery%3Dhttps3A2F2Ftwitter.com2Fevan_van_ness2Fstatus2F1621699425432133632widget%3DTweet\" target=\"_blank\" role=\"link\" data-focusable=\"true\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><\/p>\n<div aria-label=\"Image\">\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Image\" draggable=\"true\" src=\"http:\/\/www.tronweekly.com\/\"*IMAGE_URL*|?format=jpg&#038;name=small\"><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<p>He further stated that his only real position was that Solana would be and was worth much less than Optimism in the long term because rollups have good business models.<\/p>\n<p>Related Reading | <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tronweekly.com\/ripple-cto-congratulated-elon-musk-over-victory\/\">Here\u2019s how Ripple CTO Congratulated Elon Musk Over His Victory<\/a><\/p>\n<p><span data-ez-name=\"tronweekly_com-medrectangle-1\"><span><span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ezoic.com\/what-is-ezoic\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/go.ezodn.com\/utilcave_com\/img\/ezoic.png\" alt=\"Ezoic\" loading=\"lazy\"><\/a><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><\/main><\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tronweekly.com\/optimism-to-overtakes-solana-in-crypto-market\/\" class=\"button purchase\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Read More<\/a><br \/>\n Mishal Ali<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>You are here: Home\/ News\/ Optimism Overtakes Solana In the Crypto Market: The Battle for SupremacyEvan van Ness, a seasoned ConsenSys veteran and the author of the popular \u201cWeek in Ethereum\u201d newsletter, has raised the alarm over the recent performance of Solana (SOL).
