Feature News: Canary Capital Joins U.S. Spot Solana ETF Race Following Bitcoin, Ethereum Fund Approvals

Nashville-based asset manager Canary Capital has filed with the U.S. SEC to launch a spot Solana ETF, the third firm to propose a Solana-focused fund after VanEck and 21Shares.

ETF Background: If approved, the Canary Solana ETF would allow investors to gain exposure to Solana (SOL) without directly holding the cryptocurrency, with shares tracking the coinโ€™s market value, Decrypt has reported.

The numbers:

  • Solana is the fifth-largest digital asset cryptocurrency.
  • It has a market cap of $82.3 billion and is up 389% in the last 365 days.

Why is Solana an attractive asset?

  • The blockchain is known for low fees and high transaction speeds.
  • Solana is viewed as a competitor to Ethereum.
  • Canary Capital emphasized Solanaโ€™s transaction volume and active user metrics as indicators of its strong DeFi ecosystem.

However: While the U.S. SEC has approved Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs, in the past it questioned whether cryptocurrencies like Solana are actually securities.

  • Thus an earlier report suggested that if a Solana ETF will be approved, it will likely be if there is a new administration.
    • Coincidentally, it’s now only 8 days away from the U.S. elections.

Let’s go to the news recap today:
