In a landmark regulatory decision, the SEC has approved the first spot Solana ETF, granting VanEck and 21Shares permission to list their SOL products on major U.S. exchanges starting next week.
What This Means for SOL
The approval signals a broader regulatory acceptance of proof-of-stake blockchain assets. Analysts project $500M-$1B in first-month inflows based on the Bitcoin and Ethereum ETF precedents. SOL surged 18% on the news.
