Many call Solana the “Ethereum killer”, However, according to the co-founder of Solana Labs Raj Gokal, the project does not have any such a goal.
Gokal made his statement during a discussion on the social network Twitter.
“knives out” implies we are trying to kill ethereum. ethereum cannot be killed, it’s impossible. and it’s already a beautiful force of good in the world, empowering millions and creating billions in wealth. bitcoin is quite obviously the same. stop framing it as a fight.”

Chris Burniske, the co-founder of venture capital firm Placeholder, noted that despite the “nice words”, every Tier 1 blockchain would like to remain the only one on the market.
Despite pretty words, L1 knives are fully out.
In #crypto, generally, people want their biggest bags to win. This will influence almost all communications, so don't take what you see and hear as truth.
Everyone, including me, is b(i)ased.
