Solana ETFs may take until 2026: Bloomberg Intelligence

January 16, 2025 Coin Telegraph

Altcoins

With lawsuits still pending over Solana’s classification as a security, SOL ETFs will likely have to wait until next year for their debut.

Solana (SOL) exchange-traded funds (ETFs) may not launch in the United States until 2026 even under a crypto-friendly White House, James Seyffart, Bloomberg Intelligence analyst, said on Jan. 16.

Issuers “might see movement” on languishing Solana ETF filings after President-elect Donald Trump takes office on Jan. 20, Seyffart said during an interview with Blockworks.

However, “the timeline could extend into 2026 due to the SEC’s precedent of taking […] 240–260 days to review filings,” Seyffart said.

Solana ETF approvals are extremely unlikely this year, though VanEck’s head of digital assets, continues to believe in them.

United States Solana exchange-traded funds (ETFs) have a “near-zero” chance of getting greenlit under the current administration after the regulator reportedly rejected a filing necessary for their approval.

“A snowball’s chance in hell of approval unless there’s a change in leadership,” said Bloomberg ETF analyst Eric Balchunas in an X post on Aug. 20.

Only days earlier on Aug. 16, reports emerged that Cboe had removed the 19b-4 filings for two prospective Solana ETFs from its website’s “Pending Rule Changes” page.

Analyst tips Solana ETF deadline for mid-March after new filings

July 9, 2024 Coin Telegraph

21 shares solana

Bloomberg ETF analyst Eric Balchunas maintains that the outcome will likely be decided by whether Donald Trump is elected president in November.

Spot Solana exchange-traded funds (ETFs) should receive a final decision from the United States SEC around the middle of March 2025 after the Chicago Board Options Exchange (CBOE) filed applications on Monday to list VanEck and 21Shares’ proposed ETFs.

CBOE filed two Form 19b-4 applications on July 8, one for the 21Shares Core Solana ETF and another for the VanEck Solana Trust.

The CBOE likened the prospective Solana (SOL) funds to spot Bitcoin (BTC) and spot Ether (ETH) ETFs, which the SEC approved in January and May, respectively. It said that Solana’s decentralization, throughput and speed made it resistant to manipulation that could harm investors.
