The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has pushed its decision for many Spot Solana ETF applications out to October 16, 2025. This marks the final procedural extension (SEC source 1, SEC source 2). This marks the full 60 day delay as is allowed by present regulations. It also means no more extensions will be given out. Large scale asset managers which include Bitwise, 21Shares, Canary Capital, and Marinade Finance are now at a hard deadline.

In breaking news on August 14 which sent shockwaves through the crypto market. Solana saw a drop of 4.18% which took it from $201.62 to $193.19. Although for the month it still put on 18.77% growth. Also reported was a $70 million in liquidations at derivatives exchanges. This in turn proved the market’s overreaction to regulatory news.

Rising Institutional Competition Over Solana ETF Approval

Despite the delay, the competition for an ETF of Solana has heated up. The large players like VanEck, Grayscale, Franklin Templeton, Fidelity, CoinShares, and Invesco Galaxy have thrown their hats in the ring. This expanding list of players is a sign of institutional support behind the approval. It also puts into perspective the very large market which is out there.

Industry professionals are positive. Bloomberg’s James Seyffart reports mid October approval. He sees this as a delay that is more procedural than hostile. On Polymarket, betting trends report the same of over 75% chances of approval this year. At JPMorgan, they put out that should the ETFs for Solana come out which they think will be approved. They estimate $3-6 billion in assets within the first 12 months. This in turn will make for the third main crypto — after Bitcoin and Ethereum — to break into the institutional ETF play.

Global Markets And Before The Deadline

International competition is a factor which puts pressure on the SEC’s decision. In April 2025, Canada’s Toronto Stock Exchange put out four Solana spot ETFs with staking. These did very well. Also by way of background, the U.S. has precedent with the REX-Osprey SOL Staking ETF (SSK). Within 12 trading days it went past the $100 million in assets mark.

Market reports show a trend of institutional growth that is outpacing exchange reserves, which are down pre deadline. In terms of technicals, Solana has strong support at $190-$195 with resistance at $210. The October 16th ruling won’t only determine the fate of Solana’s ETF. It will also set the stage for the future of altcoin ETFs, which may include XRP, Litecoin, and multi-asset crypto funds.

If approved, the Solana ETF would put the blockchain on the same level as Bitcoin and Ethereum as a supported digital asset. This in turn may see a very large new investment.
