CoinShares

Think about it, friend, the passions are boiling in the crypto world again — this time around Solana and the opportunity to launch a spot ETF (an exchange-traded fund that tracks the price of an asset directly, rather than through futures). This week, CoinShares filed an application with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to issue its CoinShares Solana ETF.
They submitted the S-1 form, which is the official start of the application. If regulators give the go-ahead, this fund will be traded on the stock exchange and track the real price of the SOL token (by the way, Solana is the sixth largest crypt in the world by capitalization). The assets will be held by Coinbase Custody and BitGo Trust, which are large and trusted guys in the world of digital assets.
An interesting feature: CoinShares also plans to stack some of its assets, that is, to lease tokens on the Solana network and earn income. By the way, the income will also go to the fund, which means it will potentially increase its profitability. However, it has not yet been revealed who will be involved in this stacking.
But what's even cooler is that CoinShares has already become the eighth company that is trying to get approval for the Solana ETF. VanEck, Fidelity, Grayscale and other major players are participating in this race. Everyone wants to be the first, because the order of submission of applications can affect the priority during consideration.
Why is there such a rush now? After the SEC finally approved spot ETFs for bitcoin and ether last year, there was hope that the regulator would now open up to other cryptocurrencies. And Solana, along with Litecoin, is now on the list of "favorites" for approval. According to Bloomberg analyst Eric Balchunas, the resolution may come in 2-4 months. Companies have already begun to refine their applications, for example, adding more details about asset repayment and stacking.
So the question is not “if”, but “when” the SEC will give the go—ahead. Well, if this happens, then a new market will be created for investors who want to invest in Solana through a regular exchange, without messing with crypto wallets and exchanges.
Well, here's a question for you to think about, buddy.:
If the Solana ETF is really approved, would you invest or are you still cautious with the crypt?

CoinShares filed for a Solana spot ETF with the SEC on June 13, 2025.
The filing is the eighth in a growing race for Solana ETF approval.Solana’s price holds steady at $156 amid ETF optimism.Staking rewards are included in several Solana ETF proposals.Approval could drive significant institutional investment in Solana.
CoinShares Enters Solana ETF Race
CoinShares has filed a Form S-1 with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission to launch a Solana spot ETF. The filing, registered on June 13, 2025, marks the company as the eighth applicant vying to introduce a regulated investment vehicle for Solana (SOL). The proposed fund, named the CoinShares Solana ETF, aims to track the cryptocurrency’s price, offering investors exposure through traditional brokerage accounts. This move reflects growing institutional interest in Solana’s scalable blockchain technology.

The filing follows CoinShares’ earlier registration of a Solana ETF Trust in Delaware, a key step toward regulated crypto investment products. The company seeks to capitalize on Solana’s rising prominence as a Layer 1 blockchain, known for its high transaction speeds and low fees. With Solana trading at approximately $156, market optimism surrounding potential ETF approval has bolstered price stability despite broader market fluctuations.
Surge in Institutional Interest
The push for a Solana spot ETF comes amid a wave of similar filings from major asset managers. Firms like Fidelity, Grayscale, VanEck, and others have submitted or updated S-1 forms, signaling strong confidence in Solana’s market maturity. Unlike Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs, which have already secured SEC approval, Solana ETFs represent uncharted territory for altcoin investment vehicles in the U.S. The inclusion of staking functionality in several filings, including CoinShares’, highlights efforts to integrate Solana’s proof-of-stake rewards into regulated structures.
Solana’s ecosystem, driven by its proof-of-history and proof-of-stake mechanisms, supports fast, cost-efficient transactions, making it a strong contender for decentralized finance and NFT applications. The cryptocurrency’s market capitalization exceeds $110 billion, underscoring its appeal to institutional investors. Approval of a Solana ETF could unlock significant capital inflows, enhancing liquidity and mainstream adoption.
The SEC’s response to these filings remains uncertain, with concerns over market manipulation and investor protection still in focus. However, recent regulatory shifts under new leadership suggest a more favorable environment for crypto ETFs. If approved, the CoinShares Solana ETF could pave the way for broader altcoin investment products, bridging traditional finance and blockchain technology.

From May 31 to June 6, 2025, the net inflow of capital into crypto funds amounted to $224 million, indicating a slowdown in dynamics compared to previous weeks. This is stated in the CoinShares report. Experts explain the decline as a result of investor caution due to uncertainty regarding U.S. monetary policy and inflation expectations. Despite this, the inflow continues for the eighth consecutive week, and the total investment amount since the beginning of the year has reached $11 billion.

und (ETF).Seyffarth said in a post on X that #Litecoin has no legal problems with the U. S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
The SEC has never called Litecoin a security, so I wouldn't be surprised if Litecoin comes out on top.

Among the applications are the Solana ETF from Grayscale, the Bitcoin ETF from BlackRock. physical redemption offer, and Cboe's application for spot XRP ETFs issued by Bitwise, 21Shares, Canary Capital and WisdomTree.
