On October 28th, Kyle Samani, the managing partner of Multicoin Capital, announced on social media that the SOL spot ETF with staking services, namely the Bitwise SOL Staking ETF, will become operational on Tuesday, October 28th (Tuesday night after the U.S. stock market opens in Beijing time). BlockBeats Note: There are certain distinctions in terms of compliance and asset composition between the Bitwise SOL Staking ETF (BSOL) and the previously listed REX-Osprey SOL Spot ETF (SSK). These differences mainly arise from their filing procedures, regulatory disclosures, and operational structures. REX-Osprey SOL mainly directly stakes SOL (the majority of assets), with 40% staked indirectly through other ETPs and a small portion held in liquid staking tokens. In contrast, the Bitwise SOL Staking ETF (BSOL) will directly stake SOL from the custody wallet, accumulate rewards on a daily basis, and increase the per-unit SOL holding amount. The asset composition is 100% spot SOL.
