Bitwise’s CEO, Matt Hougan, believes that ‘Solana is the new Wall Street’, as the ecosystem is quickly becoming the investor-favorite for tokenization and stablecoin-related activity.
The statement came during a discussion with Akshay Rajan from Solana Labs, during which Hougan also said that:
And then they (people) wanna ask how they invest. […] And when they evaluate the different blockchains, the speed, the throughput, the finality of Solana makes it seem extraordinarily attractive.

For Hougan, Solana’s biggest selling point is its unmatched finality speed, set between 400 microseconds and 150 microseconds. This alone makes the Solana ecosystem the best option for institutional investors who often demand high throughput and ultra-fast finality. Wi
