[SOL ETF Launch] America's First Ever Staking ETF.
The Altcoin Summer Has Officially Begun
It’s official. The first staking-based cryptocurrency ETF in U.S. history has launched, and it's built on Solana.
REX Shares has introduced the REX-Osprey Solana and Staking ETF, offering investors direct exposure to SOL while generating staking rewards. This is not a synthetic product or futures contract. It’s real SOL, staked for passive income.
Following the announcement, SOL jumped 6% to $158, pushing its weekly gain beyond 12%. But this move isn’t just about short-term price action. It may mark the beginning of a structural shift in crypto investing.
- Key highlights:
- First U.S. staking-enabled ETF
- Direct SOL ownership plus yield from staking
- Built on a C-Corp structure recently approved by the SEC
- Solana holds its position as the 6th-largest crypto by market cap ($83.5B)
- Still 46% below its January high, suggesting room to grow
This ETF isn’t just a win for Solana. It could open the door for a new wave of institutional altcoin products. Analysts already expect more funds to follow Solana’s lead, particularly those offering native staking yields.
The question now is simple:
Who is next?
Solana may have set the precedent. The market is now watching which network will be the next to capitalize on this structure. For now, one thing is clear. Altcoin season may already be underway.

the vision's clear, but the noise isn’t here.
Others seek proof, I seek direction.
It’s not about being first, but seeing what matters.
The path is quieter, slower,
but in the end, it pays loudest.

My New Book is Finally Here
My poetry collection Beautiful and Brutal Things is done. It's actually done and finally published over 270 pages. Over a year of my life went into this book. More than a year, really. Long days at my computer, sometimes seven days a week because I couldn't stop even when I probably should have. Then two months of editing that felt harder than the writing itself. But it's finished, and I'm still standing, and the book is real.
