Messari Crypto offers three frameworks (REV, Monetary Premium, and Security Demand) for valuing Layer-1 blockchains like Ethereum and Solana, emphasizing that traditional SaaS valuation models don't fully apply. REV measures real economic value through gas fees and MEV tips, Monetary Premium values tokens based on belief and store of value, and Security Demand assesses the token's role in securing the network. The frameworks help understand current usage, potential upside, and system-level resilience, suggesting that L1 valuations reflect a blend of all three.
