With $60B in Staked SOL on the Line, Firms Update ETF Filings to Meet SEC Expectations
Main Idea
Nine major firms have updated their Solana ETF filings to include staking disclosures, aligning with SEC expectations, which could enhance institutional adoption and liquidity for SOL.
Key Points
1. Nine financial firms updated their Solana ETF filings by July 31, 2025, to include staking provisions, with VanEck and 21Shares being early movers.

4. Approval of these ETFs could simplify SOL ownership, increase liquidity, and boost institutional adoption of Solana.
5. Grayscale's Solana ETF review is delayed until October 10, while other firms like Franklin Templeton and Fidelity are also complying with SEC guidance.
