Solana News Today: Solana-Based Digital Products Attract Record $311.5M Inflows, 336% Weekly Surge Driven by ETF Speculation and Regulatory Progress

CoinShares data revealed that Solana-based digital products, including funds and ETPs, recorded a record $311.5 million in net inflows for the week ending July 19, marking a 336% increase from the $92.6 million inflow on July 12. This surge propelled mid-term inflows to $551 million and pushed year-to-date inflows near $1 billion. The flow rate outpaced XRP-based products by 64.29%, despite XRP’s market cap being 86.4% higher than SOL’s [1]. The spike aligns with growing speculation that a spot Solana ETF could be approved faster than expected, with the SEC’s revised submission deadline set for July 31 and a 30-day review window afterward. Regulatory progress, including the passage of the GENIUS, CLARITY, and Anti-CBDC bills in the U.S. Congress, suggests a potential shift toward streamlined crypto legislation [1].

The momentum is further fueled by the success of niche Solana-related products. REX-Osprey’s Solana Staking ETF ($SKK), which combines $SOL with staking derivatives like jitoSOL, has amassed $134 million in assets under management since its launch, demonstrating strong market appetite for Solana-linked offerings. Bloomberg’s Eric Balchunas noted that $SKK ranks in the top 1% of ETF debuts, reinforcing the sector’s appeal [1]. Analysts project that a standalone Solana ETF could attract up to $55 billion in inflows annually if approved, based on current price levels and market dynamics [1].

The inflows reflect institutional confidence in Solana’s ecosystem, particularly its layer-1 scalability and staking infrastructure. The SEC’s recent allowance for revised ETF applications to include in-kind redemptions and systematic investment language indicates regulators are nearing final-stage negotiations with issuers. While the official approval deadline remains October 10, 2025, the accelerated pace of discussions hints at potential early traction for the product [1].

Market participants are also comparing the inflow trend to other altcoin ETF hopefuls like XRP and Litecoin, which have struggled to replicate Solana’s institutional adoption. The disparity underscores Solana’s unique value proposition, driven by its technical advancements and ecosystem growth [1].
