This Thanksgiving 2025, Remora Markets served up one of the cleanest reality checks the Solana ecosystem has seen in a while.

$SOL has had an absolutely insane journey, while $NVDA just keeps marching higher.

Here’s the exact data they posted:

Year	Solana ($SOL)	Nvidia ($NVDA)
2020	$1.76	$13.20
2021	$218.42	$32.48
2022	$13.68	$16.03
2023	$59.29	$48.79
2024	$138.89	$136.63
2025	$141.30	$180.26

The contrast is brutal.

Solana gave life-changing 100x+ gains in 2021, then deleted 94% of its value in 2022, and has spent the last three Thanksgivings basically range-bound between ~$59 and ~$141.

Nvidia, meanwhile, went on a straight-faced moon mission — especially once the AI narrative took over — and is now up roughly 13.6× since 2020 (split-adjusted).

Remora’s closing line hits different:

“Hedge your portfolios with rStocks.”

And they’re not just talking theory. Remora Markets (built on Solana and powered by Step Finance) lets you long tokenized versions of real U.S. stocks — including Nvidia, Apple, Tesla, etc. — without ever leaving the chain.

That means:

• You keep your SOL stack intact
• You get exposure to traditional winners like $NVDA
• You reduce downside risk when the next meme coin winter or macro dump hits

For anyone deep in Solana meme coins — where tokens can 50x in a day and then rug the next — having a slice of your portfolio in tokenized blue-chips is basically free risk management.

Solana proved it can produce generational wealth, but it also proved it can take it away just as fast. Nvidia proved the traditional market still has monsters.

The smartest play in 2025–2026 might be owning both — on the same chain.
