Ignoring the value of the tokens which are all over inflated right now due to crypto bull market and strong correlation between tokens and popular cryptocurrencies like BTC/ETH, I'm not entirely sure Solana is directly comparable to NASDAQ. NASDAQ is a stock exchange. Solana is a blockchain, for which one application might be an exchange. Solana is competing for mindshare with other blockchains at this point such as Ethereum.
