The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) is showing distinctly positive signals regarding the approval of spot Solana ETFs. The agency has just requested potential issuers to update their S-1 forms within the next week, a move that experts believe could pave the way for licensing in the coming months.
According to three sources close to the matter, #SEC has announced it will provide comments on the amended S-1 forms within 30 days of submission. Notably, the SEC has requested issuers to update language related to physical redemptions and how they approach staking activities. It is noteworthy that the agency appears willing to consider incorporating staking into Solana ETFs.

Franklin Templeton has stepped into the fast growing Solana space with a new fund called SOEZ. The firm manages a huge amount of money and its entry shows that big players want exposure to Solana because they see strong long term value in the chain. SOEZ gives investors a simple way to follow the price of Solana without holding the token directly.

This fund is different from a basic product because it uses staking. The plan is to stake all the Solana held by the fund when it is allowed. This means the fund will not only follow the price but also earn new Solana through rewards. These rewards will be counted as income for the fund. This setup can give better returns for people who buy the ETF. It also helps the network because staking keeps Solana safe and strong.

For price checks the fund uses a well known benchmark that is trusted by large firms. The ETF is now active and trading on a major United States exchange. Leaders at Franklin Templeton said this product fits well with how investors work today. They also said Solana is becoming a key layer in the digital world because it is fast cheap and built for scale.

Even with this new launch the wider Solana ETF market showed mixed signs. The group of Solana funds saw money flow out on the fourth of December. One of the larger funds had the biggest outflow which pushed the total number into the red. Still some funds gained new money on the same day which shows that interest is not gone. It only shows that investors are being careful during a time of wide market swings.

Solana itself has faced price pressure. The token moved down from its late November peak. Some of this comes from low weekend trading and fear of a pullback across the market. There was also talk among developers about a plan that could lower future staking rewards. This added more pressure because many people who support Solana like the reward system and want it to stay the same.

Even so many people see this new ETF from Franklin Templeton as a sign of strong trust in Solana for the long run. A large firm would not start a fund like this if it lacked faith in the chain. Solana has also seen strong use this year in payments and apps. This fits with what large funds look for when they pick assets to support and promote.

The short term path may be shaky but the long term picture looks solid. SOEZ gives more people an easy way to join the Solana market. It also sends a clear message that big firms believe Solana will play a major part in the future of digital finance.

Solana ETF with Staking Debuts in the U.S.: What Does This Mean for the Crypto Market?
📊 The crypto asset market is experiencing a new phase of institutional maturation, and the launch of the first #ETFdeSolana with staking functionality in the United States is strong evidence of this.
The manager REX Shares innovated by creating the SSK – an ETF that invests directly in SOL spot and distributes staking earnings to investors. But what does this novelty represent for the market as a whole?

CBOE has just submitted a rule change request to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to list Franklin Templeton's Solana ETF. This move comes less than a week after this asset management company filed for the launch of an ETF tracking the price of Solana – the sixth-largest cryptocurrency in the world by market capitalization.

This event marks an important advance in the cryptocurrency ETF market, as more and more traditional financial companies seek to engage with digital assets, especially after the remarkable success of spot Bitcoin ETFs.

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has just delayed its decision on the spot Solana ETF proposals from companies 21Shares, Bitwise, VanEck, and Canary Capital, causing a stir in the cryptocurrency market. Is this a sign of delay or a stepping stone to a major development phase?

Delayed Decision: More Time Needed for Evaluation

On Monday, #SEC announced an extension of the review period for the Solana price-based ETF proposals, citing the need for more time to analyze related legal and policy issues. The SEC emphasized that this delay does not reflect the likelihood of approving or rejecting the funds, while also calling for public input on the proposed regulatory changes. This move comes as the SEC is considering various ETF proposals based on different digital assets, from Solana – one of the blue-chip coins – to meme coins like Official Trump, Bonk, Dogecoin, and even NFTs like Pudgy Penguins.

#ETFApproval #ETFSolana
The launch of a Solana ETF marks a significant shift in the SEC's stance towards this cryptocurrency. The SEC has initiated a binding process, with a deadline of October 11 to approve the Solana ETF, indicating a new consideration of the token as a legitimate asset. This move could attract institutional investments and increase liquidity and confidence in Solana. Furthermore, the news highlights Solana's impressive growth, with a 318% increase in its real economic value in the last quarter and a market capitalization close to 91 billion dollars. Solana not only competes with other altcoins like Litecoin but also stands out for its expanding ecosystem and decentralized applications. The approval of the ETF could be a catalyst for its future growth, although the path to approval faces regulatory and legal hurdles. A rejection could trigger legal actions, as occurred in the case of Grayscale vs. SEC in 2023.
