#Solana ETF to be listed in 2026#
Hot Topic Overview
Overview
The road to a Solana ETF listing is currently facing numerous challenges, with an estimated launch date in the US not before 2026. The primary obstacle is the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) suing cryptocurrency exchanges, alleging that Solana (SOL) constitutes an unregistered security, which makes it difficult for the SEC to define it as a commodity ETF for review. Furthermore, even with the White House adopting a crypto-friendly stance, the SEC's review process typically takes 240-260 days, further delaying the Solana ETF's market debut.

Analysis
The path to a Solana ETF listing is fraught with challenges, with an estimated launch date in the U.S. not before 2026. Bloomberg Intelligence analyst James Seyffart points out that while the White House is crypto-friendly, the review process has become more complicated due to the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) controversy over the securities nature of Solana and the SEC's lawsuits against crypto exchanges. The SEC enforcement division has labeled Solana as a security, making it difficult for other SEC divisions to review it as a commodity ETF. Even with White House policy support, the SEC's review process takes 240-260 days, pushing back the Solana ETF's listing date to potentially 2026.
