Odaily Planet Daily reports that Kyle Samani, co-founder of Multicoin and Chairman of SOL Treasury, posted on X platform: “Ethereum introduced me to the cryptocurrency space and was my initial source of wealth. However, at Devcon3 held in Cancun, Mexico, in November 2017, I abandoned Ethereum. At that time, ETH was the fastest asset in human history to reach a market capitalization of $100 billion, but Gas fees were skyrocketing. It was clearly necessary to scale quickly, giving me an unprecedented sense of urgency.”
