Original author: Blockworks Original compilation: Felix, PANews The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission's (SEC) approval of spot Solana exchange-traded funds (ETFs) appears to be in its final stages, with the initial seven potential issuers filing revised S-1 filings in recent days, and a new entrant, namely CoinShares, joining the fray. It is worth noting that each document contains content about staking, and as previously reported, the SEC requires issuers to include such content. As the crypto industry prepares for a third crypto-asset ETF that could be approved by the SEC, here are eight companies that have applied for the issuance of Solana ETFs, in order of first filing: VanEck VanEck was the first company to apply for the Solana ETF, about a year ago this month. At the time, while the SEC insisted that Solana was a security, some compared the filing to a call option on Trump's victory in the November election. The bet paid off, but it could have been a pyrrhic victory if the SEC had followed its lead and approved both Bitcoin and Ethereum exchange-traded funds (ETFs) instead of in the order in which applications were filed. The bet paid off, but it could have been a pyrrhic win if the SEC followed the precedent and approved Bitcoin and Ether ETFs all at once, rather than in the order in which issuers filed their applications first. To this end, VanEck has been advocating for the SEC to adopt a "first-to-file" principle, arguing that it is more conducive to innovation and competition. VanEck leverages Kiln to provide Solana staking services for its European exchange-traded products (ETPs).

The Core Solana ETF of the 21 Shares program will be traded on the Cboe BZX exchange, and redemption will take place in the form of SOL tokens. Coinbase is listed as a staking service provider mentioned in 21 Shares' underlying prospectus filed in Europe.

Canary Capital is smaller than some of the funds on the list, but has recently gained prominence by applying for multiple altcoin ETFs. Its ETF applications have been filed include SUI, SEI, INJ, TRX, PENGU, HBAR, LTC, and XRP, among others.

Bitwise Bitwise first applied for an exchange-traded fund (ETF) shortly after Trump's election. In an interview, the company's CEO, Hunter Horsley, called Solana an "incredibly emerging asset and story." Bitwise also launched a Solana-based staking ETP in December, with Marinade providing staking services. If the U.S. approves staking ETFs, this could bode well for Marinade.

Currently, the GSOL Trust is trading at a premium to its net asset value, which means that investors are willing to pay a higher price for the product than the underlying SOL. Last month, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission postponed its decision on Grayscale's exchange-traded funds (ETFs), saying it had not yet "reached any conclusions" on the 19 b-4 application documents for the cash SOL ETF to be listed.

Fidelity In the current competition, Fidelity is the giant. Its Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) are second only to BlackRock in terms of AUM, while its Ethereum ETFs lag behind BlackRock and Grayscale's conversion trusts. Fidelity, a leading provider of brokerage, trust, and IRA accounts, is likely to be a major driver of inflows into approved SOL exchange-traded funds (ETFs).
