Institutional investors see the launch of Solana futures ETFs as a potential catalyst for the approval of spot ETFs that directly hold SOL. As momentum builds, industry heavyweights Franklin Templeton, 21Shares, and VanEck have already submitted applications for their own Solana spot ETFs.

Both funds have been officially registered with the Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (DTCC), paving the way for market trading. The launch was set for March 20, with management fees established at 0.95% for SOLZ and 1.85% for SOLT.

How Solana’s ETF Launch Could Shape the Market
