Solana ETF

SOLZ

August delivered strong gains across shipping, crypto, precious metals, biotech, copper, uranium and cloud software ETFs.

The Volatility Shares Solana ETF is rated 'Sell' due to structural disadvantages versus spot Solana ETFs. SOLZ's reliance on futures contracts leads to tracking inefficiencies, a higher expense ratio (0.95%), and inferior yield compared to spot-based staking ETFs. Spot Solana ETFs now offer direct exposure, higher staking yields (~6.2%), and lower fees, making SOLZ increasingly obsolete for long-term investors.

Solana ETF from Volatility Shares offers exposure to Solana (SOL-USD) via futures contracts, not direct asset ownership. The fund performs more in line with Solana than competing products that are either closed-end or C-Corp structures. Solana is a compelling buy with a top 3 stablecoin footprint among public chains and a lower price to fees multiple than Ethereum or BNB.

WGMI, BKCH, STCE, MNRS and SOLZ led last week's ETF winners as crypto and blockchain ETFs surged on strong Solana, Bitcoin and Ethereum gains.

2025 will be remembered as a pivotal year in crypto, where widespread access and clearer regulations helped solidify crypto's place in the financial mainstream.

The SEC has initiated its typical review process with issuers over their spot solana ETFs filings, which means that approval of spot solana ETFs is imminent — possibly within the next few weeks. General consensus among analysts and the broad public is optimistic on approval.

While crypto adoption will likely always be price-driven to some extent, regulatory and political tailwinds have driven a steady influx of launches throughout the year despite price volatility. We are not even halfway through 2025 and have already seen around 27 crypto ETF launches.

When markets move, we can learn a lot from the outperformers. But we can also learn a lot from the underperformers — and maybe even find opportunities.
