Solana (SOL) is attracting renewed institutional attention as major asset 
managers including Franklin Templeton, Grayscale, VanEck, and Fidelity have 
updated their spot Solana ETF filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange 
Commission (SEC). Related Reading: XRP Set To Explode? Analyst Sees $5 Surge 
Any Moment – Details While the token’s price briefly dipped following the 
news, long-term indicators suggest this move could be a major bullish trigger. 
Asset Managers Revise Solana ETF Filings Amid SEC Dialogue As of August 1, at 
least seven asset managers submitted amended S-1 registration statements for 
Solana-based ETFs. These updates, which now include staking provisions and 
clearer custodianship structures, reflect ongoing discussions with the SEC. 
Notably, Grayscale’s updated proposal introduces a 2.5% annual fee in SOL, 
while VanEck’s version includes active staking rewards and dual custodianship. 
These moves are viewed as part of a coordinated strategy to align with SEC 
expectations, especially after the Commission recently approved in-kind 
redemption structures for Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs. Market watchers believe a 
decision on Solana ETFs could arrive as early as late August or September 
2025. SOL Price Reacts Cautiously, But Long-Term Momentum Builds Surprisingly, 
Solana&#8217;s price dropped by over 3% following the ETF filings, closing at 
$170.24. This suggests the news may already be priced in, or that traders 
remain cautious amid broader market uncertainty. Technical indicators show 
bearish momentum, with SOL struggling to stay above key support zones at $170 
and $158. A close above $180 could reignite bullish sentiment, while a drop 
below $158 may signal a deeper correction toward $145 or $130. SOL&#8217;s price

SOLUSD on Tradingview What Solana ETF Approval Could Mean for SOL While short- 
term volatility persists, the broader implications of Solana ETF approval are 
substantial. A greenlight from the SEC could legitimize Solana as a mainstream 
investment asset, increase market liquidity, and open the door for more 
institutional adoption. With over $60 billion in staked SOL and a maturing 
ecosystem, Solana is well-positioned to benefit once regulatory clarity 
arrives. Related Reading: If Dogecoin Loses This Level, Expect A Major Crash:
