Standard Chartered has lowered its 2026 price target for Solana (SOL) to $250 from $310 but increased the long-term outlook with forecasts of $400 in 2027 and up to $2,000 by 2030. The bank highlighted growth in stablecoin transactions within the Solana ecosystem starting in 2025, marking a shift from meme coin dominance. Despite potential underperformance compared to Ethereum in the short term, Solana is expected to outperform Bitcoin in the long run due to growing micropayment adoption.
