‘Very wide gap’ between XRP and Solana investor interest: Exec

The crypto market is still “very unsure” about which crypto assets to back beyond Bitcoin and Ethereum, according to an executive.
The average investor still hasn’t reached a clear consensus on which crypto assets beyond the top two warrant serious attention, according to Anthony Bassili, president of Coinbase Asset Management.
“There’s a very, very clear view in the investor community in terms of the right first portfolio is Bitcoin. The next is Bitcoin, Ethereum,” Bassili said during an interview with Cointelegraph at The Bridge conference in New York City on Wednesday.
Bassili pointed out that Solana (SOL) is “maybe” the third asset on the radar. “The market is very unsure as to what’s the next asset they want to own after that,” he said, adding that after Solana, there is a “very wide gap” with XRP (XRP).
