Matthew Sigel, head of research at VanEck, is highly optimistic about the prospects for the listing of the Solana ETF. He believes that the 77% probability given by the cryptocurrency prediction platform Polymarket is "too conservative" and expects the listing probability of the Solana ETF to be even higher.

The future of crypto ETFs: resonance between policies and markets

  1. Market forecasts rise
    According to the latest data from Polymarket, the predicted probability of Solana ETF being approved in 2025 has risen from 77% in early January to about 84%. This change shows that the market's confidence in the listing of Solana ETF is increasing, and also reflects investors' expectations for the overall favorable environment of the cryptocurrency market.

  2. Driving force for policy change
    It is generally believed in the industry that the US cryptocurrency market policy will be more open after Trump wins the presidential election in 2024. Trump has explicitly supported cryptocurrencies and claimed to make the United States the "global cryptocurrency capital." The policy shift under his leadership may accelerate the approval process for spot cryptocurrency ETFs.

  3. SEC's attitude and breakthroughs in technical mechanisms
    The SEC previously expressed concerns about the Solana ETF proposal submitted by VanEck and 21Shares, especially whether SOL should be classified as a security. However, the market is confident that this regulatory barrier can be broken, and believes that the Solana ETF may successfully resolve this issue by emulating the "grant trust" mechanism of Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs.

Why is the Solana ETF so highly anticipated?

  1. Technical support and market position
    As a high-performance public chain, Solana has attracted a large number of developers and users with its fast transaction capabilities and low costs. The launch of Solana ETF will open a door to this ecosystem for traditional investors and further promote its mainstreaming.

  2. Investors' bets
    Data shows that more investors are betting that 2025 will be a bumper year for the crypto market. The Polymarket platform predicts that Bitcoin and Ethereum will hit record highs in 2025, and cryptocurrency ETFs including Solana will become new investment hotspots.

Challenges and opportunities coexist

Despite the positive outlook, several key factors remain to be considered:

  • Regulatory barriers: Whether the SEC will speed up the approval process remains the key to the listing of the Solana ETF.

  • Market competition: As more and more cryptocurrency ETF proposals are submitted, Solana ETF needs to find a unique positioning to attract more capital.

  • Macroeconomic environment: Macroeconomic policies and market fluctuations between 2024 and 2025 may also have a direct impact on the listing of cryptocurrency ETFs.

The Rise of the Crypto ETF Era

2025 may become a historic turning point for the crypto market, especially as the listing of new ETFs further drives capital inflows. The listing of Solana ETF not only symbolizes the mainstreaming of the cryptocurrency market, but is also likely to attract investors' attention to the next generation of public chain projects.
