80/20 ETH/SOL… or full send into Solana?
Hey everyone,
First ever Reddit post here.
I rarely ask/post for opinions online since I prefer doing my own research and making my own decisions, but I’m pretty split on this one, so I figured I’d ask for some insight here.
My current crypto portfolio:
- 32.78 ETH (current avg. price ~1,787€). I made a few trades in Feb/March and managed to increase my ETH position from 28.43 to current, which pushed my avg. price a bit higher than my initial buy-in
- 253.78 SOL (avg. price ~72 €)
- 0.00279 BTC (avg. price ~61k €, acquired through a recent Kraken Pro reward)
A bit of background (for those interested): I’ve been following crypto since 2017. I’m from Slovenia, and what first got me interested was seeing actual crypto adoption in Ljubljana back then. You could buy simple things like coffee or pizza with crypto (BTC, ETH, Bitcoin Cash, and ELI token) through a mobile payment app Elipay, which felt pretty awesome for a relatively small and unknown country.
That got me enthusiastic about crypto and I made my first BTC purchase in 2017 - 0.25 BTC for 600 €. I sold it soon after for a small profit because I needed the money at the time (I was 17). Around that same period I also, somehow, earned 0.6 ETH through some reward system (can not recall what that was for the sake of me), moved it to an online wallet, and forgot about it. A few years later, I never managed to retrieve that ETH as I lost the key to my wallet, obviously lol.
After that I never made any other crypto investments, I just kept following the crypto developments out of interest.
Fast forward to now … I managed to save up some money by now and decided to buy into the February 2026 dip. I promised myself to make the most of the opportunity and avoid the classic “wish I bought more” regret, so I used most of my savings to build the portfolio above.
I am not planning to HODL long term. My goal is to sell when these assets get near previous ATH prices, then move around 90% of the profits into an index fund (where I’m already investing monthly for some time).
So here’s my dilemma:
Looking at Solana’s ATH prices (~280 €), it seems like the upside from current prices (72-75 €) could be much bigger than ETH’s.
If I sold my ETH and went all in on SOL, I’d end up with roughly 1,185 SOL. And if SOL reached even 160 € for example, that would outperform holding my current mix and selling ETH at around 3,850 € (which would be close to its ATH) plus SOL at 160 €. I know ETH is more established and probably less volatile, but SOL also seems solid rtn and has decent upside potential.
So, to sum it up:
Option 1: Keep the portfolio as it is — roughly 80/20 ETH/SOL.
Option 2: Sell my ETH position and go all in on SOL, for higher profit potential, aiming to sell at 160+ € per SOL.
— that’s all.
Thanks in advance guys.
