Ethereum and Solana may become scarcer – THESE Grayscale projections say…

Ethereum [ETH] was trading at $1,876.89 at press time, following a slight increase over the previous day but a 2.16% decline over the previous week. Meanwhile, Solana was trading at $75.16 at press time, following a slight increase over the previous week and a slight decline over the previous day.

These contradictory price movements imply that there is no clear bullish or bearish momentum dominating the cryptocurrency market, which is extremely erratic. 

In fact, there were no clear indications of bulls or bears on the RSI for either ETH or SOL as well.

Grayscale paints a concerning picture for ETH and SOL

At the same time, Zach Pandl, Head of Research at Grayscale, presented his analysis indicating that Ethereum and Solana may become more scarce assets due to their respective networks’ consideration of lowering the annual production of new tokens.

Currently, issuing new ETH and SOL, which expands the total supply, helps to fund staking rewards on Ethereum and Solana.

This inflation would be decreased by the suggested modifications. Comparable to lowering the production of a commodity, the value of the current tokens may rise if demand remains constant or rises and fewer new tokens are introduced to the market.
