- Canada to debut world’s first spot Solana ETFs with staking on April 16, 2025
- Solana price consolidates between $130–$134 ahead of ETF launch momentum
- Bullish MACD crossover and rising RSI signal strengthening upward price trend
Canada is all set to launch the world’s first spot Solana (SOL) exchange-traded funds (ETFs).
Following the approval by the Ontario Securities Commission, major issuers including Purpose, Evolve, CI, and 3iQ are set to debut these new funds on April 16, 2025.
Why Are Canada’s Solana ETFs Groundbreaking?
Unlike typical spot crypto ETFs, these Canadian funds uniquely combine direct asset holding with yield generation.
The ETFs will hold physical Solana and actively stake the SOL tokens. This structure provides investors not only with SOL price exposure but also potential income through staking rewards, simplifying access to yield compared to self-custody staking. With Ethereum staking already popular, these potentially higher-yielding Solana staking ETFs could attract broad investor interest.
How Is SOL Price Reacting Before the ETF Launch?
As of press time, Solana is trading at $130.78 , showing a 1.91% daily gain as anticipation builds. After briefly dipping below $128, the price quickly recovered, signaling strong support at lower levels. SOL entered a short-term consolidation phase between $130 and $134.
