Eclipse’s $ES Gaining Buzz A Layer 2 Project to Watch (Alongside $XRP’s Steady Push)

[tobiluxy]

Lately, there is been quite a bit of chatter around Eclipse and their $ES token. What’s interesting is that Eclipse is aiming to bridge the strengths of both Solana and Ethereum using Solana’s parallel execution for speed while relying on Ethereum for settlement and security. That kind of hybrid approach could actually change how we view scalability in DeFi.

What caught my eye is the way the $ES community is being activated  there is an event where users can quote a pinned tweet and get rewarded. It’s not just a typical airdrop but more of a social push that’s gaining traction. Some platforms, like BingX, have already listed $ES, which adds some legitimacy to the token's early movement.

On the other side, we have $XRP a more established player still fighting its own regulatory battles but pushing forward with real-world utility, especially in cross-border payments. While $XRP moves toward institutional adoption, $ES seems to be carving a niche in the L2 performance race.

It makes me wonder: are we heading into a phase where utility-focused tokens like $XRP coexist with high-performance, developer-focused chains like Eclipse? Could $ES emerge as a sleeper hit in the next cycle?

Would love to hear other thoughts  anyone here exploring $ES or sticking to solid plays like $XRP?
