Gokal: “Solana Could Be The Apple Of The Crypto World”

Raj Gokal, co-founder of Solana (SOL) altcoin, talked about his altcoins with assertive words in his latest statement. Solana, a layer-1 blockchain launched in 2020, is one of the largest chains developers are working on. Excluding stablecoins, Solana is the eighth-largest cryptocurrency in terms of market capitalization, with approximately $7.6 billion, according to CoinMarketCap data.

“Solana has the potential to be the Apple of crypto,” said Raj Gokal. Gokal said that for many years, Apple has focused on two things: user experience and performance. The founding partner added the following in his statement:

I think Apple has been working on the latency of touch screens for close to a decade to get the iPhone out, and it seems like a miracle to people.

This platform had a lot to build on to get the iPhone, the App Store, and the app ecosystem to where it is today.

This is also the focus of Solana’s core engineering and ecosystem, Gokal said. Gokal talked about the importance of creating a network that feels like a normal internet even though it is a completely new financial internet.

Gokal concluded with these words:

There are many things the network does to keep itself fresh and competitive. Our core thesis will be to focus on new business, new projects and independent developers. We are still in an ecosystem and a community that is optimistic about what two developers can do within a garage.
