Ethereum and Solana Staking ETFs Could Launch Within Weeks: Analysts

The first Ethereum and Solana staking ETFs in the United States may be just weeks away from launch, according to ETF analysts closely monitoring the latest regulatory developments. ETF provider REX Shares recently filed to introduce these groundbreaking funds using unconventional regulatory structures that have attracted considerable industry attention. The staking feature has long been considered a critical missing piece in crypto ETF offerings, especially since spot Ether ETFs went live in July 2024. Several executives have argued that without staking, these ETFs remain incomplete. Now, REX Shares appears to be addressing that gap through a novel legal and regulatory setup. Rare C-Corp Structure Used to Avoid Delays Unlike most ETFs, the proposed REX Shares funds are structured as C-corporations—an uncommon format in the ETF space. ETF analyst James Seyffart described the approach as “very rare” in a May 30 post on X, noting that it allows the funds to sidestep the typical 19b-4 filing process with the SEC. “These ETFs are 40-act funds with a unique structure and do not go through the 19b-4 process,” Seyffart explained. This has enabled REX Shares to potentially fast-track approval, while other firms, such as Bitwise, continue to await SEC decisions on similar proposals . In its filing, REX Shares clarified that the fund will be taxed as a C-corporation, meaning it will incur current and deferred tax expenses. These will be reflected in the fund’s Net Asset Value (NAV), a key detail for investors evaluating the fund’s long-term performance. Crypto ETF Staking Ahead? Seyffart added that the REX Shares ETFs will gain exposure to Solana and Ether through Cayman-based subsidiaries and aim to stake at least 50% of their holdings. “This is a bunch of clever legal and regulatory workarounds to get these products to market,” he said, emphasizing that while the structure has trade-offs, it seems to have found favor with regulators. Nate Geraci, President of the ETF Store, echoed the sentiment, saying, “Looks like two crypto ETF launches are imminent,” and noting that staking is the major innovation that could make these ETFs more attractive to long-term investors. Even major firms like BlackRock have acknowledged the importance of staking . In March, BlackRock’s head of digital assets, Robbie Mitchnick, called their Ether ETF a “tremendous success,” but admitted it was “less perfect” without staking. That may soon change if REX Shares’ approach proves successful. The post Ethereum and Solana Staking ETFs Could Launch Within Weeks: Analysts appeared first on TheCoinrise.com .
