Bitwise Asset Management’s spot Solana ETF (BSOL) launched with explosive momentum, attracting $69.5 million in debut inflows that dramatically outpaced the $12 million drawn by Rex-Osprey’s competing Solana Staking ETF (SSK). The divergent performance signals strong institutional preference for BSOL’s direct exposure model and competitive 0.20% management fee, even as Solana’s price declined 3.1% to $194 on launch day, highlighting a potential decoupling between ETF demand and short-term price movements.

Hedera & Litecoin ETFs Launch Tomorrow Amid SEC Shutdown
Major cryptocurrency ETFs for Hedera (HBAR) and Litecoin (LTC) are set to debut tomorrow despite the ongoing government shutdown, marking a significant milestone in crypto market integration with traditional finance. The launches proceed smoothly thanks to strategic legal provisions that bypass the need for manual SEC approval, with the New York Stock Exchange certifying filings for multiple crypto investment vehicles including Bitwise’s spot Solana ETF and Grayscale’s GSOL conversion. This development has already sparked immediate price recoveries for both digital assets, with Litecoin reclaiming the $100 level and both cryptocurrencies posting approximately 2% gains.

read moreBitcoin More Likely to Outlast Dollar, Experts Say
Jeff Park, Head of Alpha Strategies at Bitwise Invest, suggests Bitcoin may have a greater probability of surviving longer than the dollar, citing recent liquidity stress in the bond market. A sharp dislocation in the SOFR-Fed Funds spread, now at -3.46 basis points, indicates collateral demand issues ahead of broader volatility. Hedge funds are deleveraging, Treasury yields are rising amid equity selloffs, and traditional safe havens like bonds are losing appeal. Spencer Hakimian notes a breakdown in the 10-year yield market, possibly due to leverage stress in the basis trade. Luke Broyles argues Bitcoin still outperforms equities and bonds despite recent volatility, especially as global trade tensions escalate with tariffs and supply chain disruptions.

Shares of Strategy, a business intelligence and Bitcoin investment firm, have plummeted over 11% to $250, reflecting a broader crypto market downturn that has erased $270 billion recently. Founder Michael Saylor humorously suggested he might need a second job to buy more Bitcoin, which has dropped to a three-month low of $86,000.Concerns about a potential forced liquidation arise as the firm’s average Bitcoin acquisition cost is $66,380, with its 499,096 BTC stash valued at $44.3 billion, still yielding a 34% profit. However, significant debt maturing in 2028 and Saylor’s substantial voting power make shareholder-driven liquidation unlikely.
