#REX-OSPREYSolanaETF The REX-Osprey Solana + Staking ETF (ticker: SSK) launched on July 2, 2025, marking the first U.S.-listed ETF offering exposure to Solana (SOL) with staking rewards. It debuted on the Cboe BZX Exchange, recording $33 million in trading volume and $12 million in inflows on its first day, outperforming recent Solana and XRP futures ETF launches. The ETF, structured under the Investment Company Act of 1940, holds spot Solana, stakes up to 60% of its SOL directly, and includes Solana-linked international ETPs and liquid staking tokens like JitoSOL. All staking rewards are passed directly to investors, with no cut taken by REX or Osprey. Anchorage Digital serves as the exclusive custodian and staking partner. Despite regulatory hurdles in May 2025, the ETF’s C-corporation structure helped it navigate SEC concerns, positioning it as a pioneer in crypto ETFs. Solana’s price surged to around $153-$160 post-launch, reflecting strong investor interest, though volatility persists. Analysts see this as a potential catalyst for more altcoin ETFs.
