Raoul Pal Bets Big on Solana, Allocating 80% of Crypto Portfolio

Former Goldman Sachs executive Raoul Pal has revealed his heavy investment in Solana (SOL), an Ethereum competitor.

Solana Dominates Portfolio

Pal, known for his macro insights, stated that 80% of his crypto portfolio is allocated to SOL. He has shifted his Ethereum holdings to non-fungible tokens (NFTs), specifically high-end art NFTs.

Reasons for Solana Bet

Pal attributed his decision to invest heavily in Solana to its impressive performance in 2022. The Solana/Ethereum chart convinced him to go “all in” on Solana, similar to his earlier investment in Ethereum.

Solana’s Performance

At the time of writing, SOL is trading at $133, a remarkable increase of over 1,240% from its 2022 closing price of $9.89. In comparison, Ethereum has grown by approximately 155% over the same period.

Diversification

While SOL dominates Pal’s portfolio, he also holds 1% in “stupid s**t” such as Dogecoin and Bonk. Additionally, he has a portion invested in a fund of hedge funds focused on digital assets.
