Grayscale's research chief Zach Pandl stated at TOKEN2049 that Ethereum, Solana, and BNB Chain are underestimated as smart contract platforms driving financial activities like tokenization and stablecoins on blockchains. He emphasized the potential for trillions of dollars to move on-chain through these applications, though he did not specify network-specific volumes. The comments coincide with rising interest in newer crypto themes such as Zcash and Hyperliquid, with perpetual futures expected to gain traction among both institutional and retail investors.
