Scaramucci Says The Setup Is Already In Motion"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>SkyBridge Capital founder Anthony Scaramucci said he still sees a path to Solana reaching $2,500 over a five-to-ten-year horizon, arguing that tokenization plus clearer US regulation could turn Solana into a core financial \u201crail system.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Scaramucci made the remarks in an interview with SolanaFloor filmed during last week\u2019s Solana Breakpoint conference and released on Dec. 18.<\/p>\n<h2>Why Solana Is Still Poised For $2,500<\/h2>\n<p>Scaramucci framed the $2,500 thesis as a long-duration bet that won\u2019t play out cleanly. \u201cIt\u2019s not going to come without\u2026 volatility,\u201d he <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=nJHs3DyqJuQ\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">said<\/a>, pointing to what he called a messy US regulatory year and sticky inflation as headwinds that \u201cprobably slowed down our trajectory.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf you had asked me at the beginning of the year\u201d whether Washington would pass stablecoin legislation and \u201cthe market structure, the CLARITY bill,\u201d he said he would have expected both. \u201cThat did not happen.\u201d Still, he argued \u201cthe timing is still right,\u201d with the caveat that price will likely remain jumpy until those macro and regulatory variables resolve.<\/p>\n<p>To explain the patience required, Scaramucci leaned on a tech-investing analogy, recalling Amazon\u2019s drawdowns by 90% before mass adoption. The lesson, in his words: stay with \u201cgreat technology\u201d through uncertain stretches because durable infrastructure eventually gets adopted.<\/p>\n<p>Asked what surprised him most this cycle, Scaramucci singled out the Trump and Melania memecoins. He described their Solana launch as \u201ca compliment to Solana\u201d because it was selected for \u201cability to handle large scale large volume transactions with great certainty and finality.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>But he also argued the episode backfired on policy. \u201cI think those coins slowed down the regulatory process in the US,\u201d he said, suggesting that the optics of a US president entering the memecoin business created a political \u201cfoil\u201d that opponents could use to resist crypto bills. \u201cI think we would have gotten everything that we wanted this year had the president sort of stayed out of the meme coin business,\u201d he added, calling it \u201cshort-term regulatory\u201d damage.<\/p>\n<p>He also claimed the memecoin surge \u201csucked out all the liquidity from a lot of the altcoins,\u201d which he said \u201churt the industry,\u201d even as it showcased Solana\u2019s throughput.<\/p>\n<h2>Tokenization Is The Endgame<\/h2>\n<p>Scaramucci\u2019s core argument was simple: tokenization is coming, and Solana is positioned to host a meaningful share of it. He said Paul Atkins, whom he described as a longtime personal friend, delivered what Scaramucci considers an underappreciated prediction: \u201cIn 5 years all of our assets are going to be tokenized.\u201d Scaramucci then pushed his own conclusion: \u201cWhat\u2019s going to be the number one rail system to tokenize on? It\u2019s going to be Solana.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He argued superior systems tend to win through adoption, not ideology. \u201cIf you have something that works better than something else, it gets adopted,\u201d he said, comparing Solana\u2019s trajectory to the internet\u2019s jump from dial-up to today\u2019s high-bandwidth reality.<\/p>\n<p>He also flagged operational progress on the network. \u201cI don\u2019t want to jinx us,\u201d he said, but suggested Solana had gone \u201ctwo years now without any\u201d downtime.<\/p>\n<p>SolanaFloor challenged Scaramucci on why SkyBridge tokenized a $300 million fund on another chain. Scaramucci said it was \u201ca very small fund,\u201d and that a larger fund \u201cwill likely get tokenized on Solana.\u201d He also rejected maximalism: \u201cI don\u2019t believe in chain monogamy,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>His view is that \u201cthree or four chains\u201d will win, naming Solana and Avalanche. He argued Avalanche can be attractive for certain compliance-driven deployments, while Solana is where \u201cstocks and bonds are going to be tokenized\u201d and where \u201cthe larger funds are going to be tokenized.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Scaramucci also disclosed his personal positioning: \u201cMy largest personal position even greater than Bitcoin is my position in Solana and I have it all staked,\u201d he said, adding he owns Avalanche and Bitcoin and holds a \u201cvery small position\u201d in Ethereum.<\/p>\n<p>Scaramucci tied the next leg of the cycle to US policy and liquidity. If the US passes market-structure rules next year, he said, prices should respond. If inflation cools and the Fed can cut more aggressively under a new chair, he argued that would add liquidity and reinforce a \u201cpositive flywheel.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>At press time, SOL traded at $125.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-868406\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/SOLUSDT_2025-12-19_13-36-16.png?resize=1024%2C473\" alt=\"Solana price chart\" width=\"1024\" height=\"473\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>SkyBridge Capital founder Anthony Scaramucci said he still sees a path to Solana reaching $2,500 over a five-to-ten-year horizon, arguing that tokenization plus clearer US regulation could turn Solana into a core financial \u201crail system.\u201d Scaramucci made the remarks in an interview with SolanaFloor filmed during last week\u2019s Solana Breakpoint conference and released on Dec.&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":8898,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[116],"tags":[1188,174,175,176,121,127,128],"class_list":["post-8897","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-solana","tag-anthony-scaramucci","tag-sol","tag-sol-news","tag-sol-price","tag-solana","tag-solana-news","tag-solana-price"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/bitcotasks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8897","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/bitcotasks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/bitcotasks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bitcotasks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bitcotasks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=8897"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/bitcotasks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8897\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bitcotasks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/8898"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/bitcotasks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=8897"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bitcotasks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=8897"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bitcotasks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=8897"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
