I think Base became better than Solana. Four reasons;
1- Solana is neither faster nor cheaper anymore
2- User base is more wide compared to Solana
3- Base is sitting on Ethereum decentralization
4- There is no socials on Solana you can compare with Farcaster

Above are the most common reasons.

If there will be just 3 chains in the future, first two will be BTC and ETH. I am not sure if Solana can get the third position.

These are my neutral feelings as a non-technical blockchain enthusiast. What is your opinion? I would like to hear.
