21Shares is excited by the potential for an exchange traded product (ETP) in the US that provides access to the Solana ecosystem. We believe this is a necessary step for the crypto industry and it holds true to our mission to bring to market easily accessible financial products centered around crypto assets. Launched in 2020, Solana emerged as an innovative blockchain solution. The Solana ecosystem evolved quickly, boasting unparalleled speeds and cost efficiency. On June 28, 2021, exactly three years ago to the day, 21Shares, through its affiliate 21Shares AG, announced the launch of the world's first Solana ETP. The 21Shares Solana Staking ETP (ASOL) has over $950mn in assets under management as of May 31, 2024 and represents our largest product in the European market. Since our inception, 21Shares has led crypto asset ETP innovation globally, with listings on major exchanges like London Stock Exchange, Nasdaq OMX, Euronext Paris and Amsterdam, Deutsche Börse, and SIX Swiss Exchange. As a leading global crypto asset ETP issuer, this filing is essential for democratizing access to crypto in the U.S. Our commitment to this goal is unwavering, and we look forward to working with regulators throughout the approval process.#Solana #Sol #SolETP #digitalassets #crypto Any future Solana ETP registered under the Securities Act of 1933 is not an investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 or a commodity pool for purposes of the Commodity Exchange Act.

🔥 Brazil has approved its first Solana ETF, a significant milestone for both the #cryptocurrency industry and traditional financial markets. The previous week began with a sharp downturn and heightened volatility across most markets after #Japan raised interest rates, leading to a steep decline in the Japanese stock market—the worst since 1987. This triggered a ripple effect, causing turmoil in other markets as well. 🔍 However, after the initial panic subsided, markets began to recover steadily throughout the week, culminating in a strong performance on Thursday, with both the 🇺🇸 U.S. stock market and the crypto market posting substantial gains. While short-term volatility is expected due to ongoing #macroeconomic factors, the 🌐long-term outlook for the crypto market remains very promising. Total crypto market cap is up +0.11%, #Bitcoin +1.03%, #Ethereum -4.97%, #Solana +2.34% and Pyth +1.79%. Crypto news 📰; 1. Brazil Approves First Solana Spot #ETF - Launching this ETF, Brazil not only enhances accessibility to Solana for institutional and retail investors but also sets a precedent that could encourage other countries to adopt similar investment products. https://lnkd.in/dK8ridjj 2.

ETH ETFs Have Arrived 🚀 The US SEC has given the green light to the first spot #Ether ETFs by BlackRock and VanEck. Trading starts today on Cboe Global Markets, Nasdaq, and NYSE! Ether (ETH) is the native cryptocurrency of the Ethereum network, which holds the second-largest market capitalization in the crypto world. This could be the dawn of a new era for #Ethereum and the crypto market. Here's why 👇🏼 1. Milestone for Crypto 🏅 The approval of 9 spot #ETH ETFs represents a major step forward for the cryptocurrency sector. This follows the successful launch of spot #BTC ETFs earlier this year and highlights the growing acceptance and maturation of the regulatory landscape around digital assets. 📈 2. Expanding Access 🌐 Spot crypto ETFs provide a familiar, regulated product that offers investors direct access to spot crypto. The success of spot #BTC ETFs, with $17 billion in net inflows, underscores the demand for such products and their potential to drive broader crypto adoption. 💼 3. Unique Investment Opportunities 📊 The #ETH ETF will enhance the on-chain ecosystem. Ethereum’s advanced supply system and DeFi capabilities mean that as more ETH is allocated to ETFs, its price is likely to rise, increasing interest and DeFi use, creating a powerful cycle. This impact is more pronounced compared to BTC ETFs. With over 15 million monthly active addresses and a 300% increase in smart contracts deployed in 2023, #ETH's ecosystem is rapidly expanding. 📈🔍 4. Broader Implications 🌟 As the crypto market evolves, the approval of Ether ETFs underscores the growing integration of digital assets into traditional finance, paving the way for a more inclusive and robust financial ecosystem. The increased access and investment opportunities will not only drive innovation but also strengthen the foundation of the crypto ecosystem. With Ethereum’s price currently at $3,443.23, this is an exciting time for investors and enthusiasts alike.

As Ethereum executes its ambitious roadmap, the debate intensifies: Should investors focus on ETH, a basket of Layer 2 solutions, or a combination of both? With Ethereum scaling through L2 solutions and an anticipated ETF trading debut this summer, the stage is set for exciting developments. However, the question remains: which assets should be in your portfolio? Despite Ethereum's robust performance, the rise of L2 solutions like Arbitrum and Optimism presents compelling opportunities. For instance, Arbitrum leads with substantial Total Value Locked (TVL) and daily active addresses, reflecting its strong user base and transaction volumes. On the other hand, Ethereum continues to showcase significant utility with its diverse applications, from gas fees to collateral for loans and smart contract deployment. However, while L2 tokens currently primarily serve governance roles, ETH remains indispensable due to its extensive use cases, including staking, lending, and acting as a medium of exchange. Additionally, the upcoming token unlocks for L2s like Arbitrum, projected to introduce significant sell pressure to the market, could influence price dynamics and investor strategies. I think that, at this point in time, investing in any L2 is like a investment in the success of Ethereum itself and for the top L2s to outperform ETH, the market needs to re-price them in terms of their % of Ethereum’s market cap. For example, we saw this play out over the last year with Solana — which had just 2.5% of Ethereum’s market cap in December of ‘22. This was clearly wrong. The market has since re-rated Solana to 15% of Ethereum. #Ethereum #CryptoInvestment #Layer2 #ETH #Arbitrum #Optimism #Blockchain #DeFi #CryptoAnalysis #InvestmentStrategies https://lnkd.in/dFBtxAUT

🚀 Big Day for Crypto on Wall Street!🎉 Today marks a monumental milestone with the launch of Ether ETFs, signaling a broader acceptance of crypto assets beyond Bitcoin. This is only the second set of crypto ETFs approved by the SEC, a clear indicator of diversifying investment opportunities in the crypto space. 🔍 While the Bitcoin ETFs set a historical record for product launches, the path for Ether might look a bit different. Despite potential challenges such as lack of staking options for ETF investors and increased competition, the underlying technology of Ethereum hosts some of the most exciting applications of blockchain. 💡 Ethereum's capabilities extend beyond simple value storage, providing a platform for smart contracts, decentralized finance, and much more. This positions Ethereum uniquely in the eyes of institutional investors. 📊 According to Matthew Hougan of Bitwise Asset Management despite the uncertainties, there's a strong bullish case for ETH ETFs, driven by: 1. Diversification Needs: Broadening investment portfolios beyond Bitcoin. 2. Vibrant Use Cases: From stablecoins to tokenization, Ethereum is at the forefront. 3. Cash Flow Generation: Ethereum's robust platform generated significant revenues last year, akin to a high-growth tech stock. 🌊 The expected net flows into Ethereum ETFs could be substantial, mirroring the enthusiasm once exclusive to Bitcoin. Let's watch the capital flows as Ether may surprise us to the upside, just as Bitcoin did. Regardless of outcomes, today is a win for the crypto industry! #Ethereum #CryptoETFs #Investing #Finance #Blockchain #Technology Logos Capital Note: This post encapsulates the key points from Anthony Pompliano newsletter which I follow and recommend.

Following the explosive growth of #Bitcoin, the institutional interest will turn towards #Ethereum. The financial landscape is evolving rapidly, and various factors are aligning to make Ethereum an increasingly attractive option for institutional investors. The United States finds itself burdened with mounting debt, causing concerns about the deteriorating quality of American bonds. As a result, savvy institutional investors are beginning to explore alternative investments to safeguard their capital and generate attractive returns. Ethereum, with its robust and secure blockchain network, emerges as a promising contender in this scenario. One of the key attractions for investors considering Ethereum is the potential for a "dividend" of around 5-6%. Unlike traditional dividends, this reward stems from owning and participating in the Ethereum network. It's a tantalizing prospect that has garnered the attention of many, especially in a world where conventional investment options are facing increasing uncertainty. Inevitably, as more investors recognize the stability and reliability of #Bitcoin as a foundational asset in the cryptocurrency space, they will also turn their gaze towards Ethereum. This shift in perception could lead to a significant increase in demand for Ethereum, resulting in a supply shock for $ETH, as investors scramble to secure their positions in this promising digital ecosystem. In conclusion, it appears that Ethereum is poised to take its place as a valuable and secure asset in the world of blckchain and cryptocurrency. As the global financial landscape continues to evolve, institutional investors will likely consider Ethereum as a viable alternative to navigate the challenges posed by increasing debt and uncertainty. #Ethereum #dividends #investors #institutions #Bitcoin

📈 Chainlink Price Action Amid Swift Payments Update and Ethereum ETF Rush With U.S. financial markets on hold for Memorial Day, the long holiday weekend has meant a relatively quiet start to the week for most crypto markets—but one digital asset was booming: Chainlink (LINK). As the 14th largest cryptocurrency by market cap, LINK emerged as Monday's best performer among the top 40 coins. According to CoinGecko, LINK has surged more than 10% in the past day, now trading at $18.75. This spike is largely attributed to the bullish sentiment surrounding Chainlink’s collaboration with international payments platform Swift, set to be showcased at this week's Consensys conference in Austin, Texas. Additionally, Chainlink’s recent involvement in a tokenization pilot with Wall Street giants like JP Morgan and BNY Mellon has further fueled this momentum. This project, leveraging Chainlink's Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol (CCIP), marks a significant step in integrating traditional financial infrastructure with blockchain technology. Sergey Nazarov, Chainlink’s co-founder, also expressed optimism for the broader crypto market, particularly following the historic approval of Ethereum exchange-traded funds (ETFs). He noted that this approval is just the beginning, indicating a future where numerous tokens could have their own ETFs, enhancing global capital market interactions. Chainlink’s recent advancements across multiple blockchains, including Ethereum, Arbitrum, Polygon, and Base, coupled with endorsements from firms like 21Shares, underscore its pivotal role in the evolving digital asset ecosystem. Despite this progress, LINK still has a considerable journey ahead to reach its 2021 all-time high of $52.70. #Chainlink #Crypto #Blockchain #LINK #Ethereum #Swift #Tokenization #ETF #Cryptocurrency #FinancialMarkets

𝑫𝒐𝒏'𝒕 𝒃𝒆𝒍𝒊𝒆𝒗𝒆 𝑺𝒐𝒍𝒂𝒏𝒂: 𝑬𝑻𝑭 𝒔𝒂𝒗𝒆𝒔 𝒕𝒐𝒌𝒆𝒏𝒔 𝒃𝒖𝒕 𝒂𝒅𝒅𝒔 𝒑𝒓𝒐𝒃𝒍𝒆𝒎𝒔 ✨ Today, Solana is the most active headliner in the crypto market: VanEck has applied for an ETF for this token. Altcoins have long lacked such positivity - on this information, for example, AVAX added more than 10% and intended to continue. 📈 According to the filing, VanEck Solana Trust will track the dynamics of the network's native token based on the Solana Benchmark Rate from MarketVector Indexes. The benchmark represents aggregated data from the top five centralized trading platforms for SOLs on the CCData Centralized Exchange Benchmark survey. The product is expected to be listed on the Cboe BZX platform, and the ticker symbol has not yet been determined by the company. The SEC has not yet announced a deadline for a decision and most experts are skeptical. ⏳ Recognition of the asset as a security brings it under regulation under other laws and complicates the trading process. At the same time, we should remember that ETFs are only a tool, not a panacea against loss. ETFs are not some magical growth engine. Any ETF on NYSE or NASDAQ is initially in the same conditions as regular stocks, which can rise and fall or hang around for years at the same levels (e.g., Ford stock). 💼 So, we should not expect excessive positivity from the Solana ETF. Everything still depends on the overall supply of money in the system. If the Fed starts lowering the rate - we will go up. If not - no ETFs will not help crypto. 💰 At the moment, the technical picture of SOL looks much better than, for example, that of BTC. And if it did not move most of the time synchronously with Bitcoin, we could say that the reversal pattern is complete. However, drawing such a conclusion without confirmation from BTC is wishful thinking. 𝐒𝐨, 𝐛𝐞𝐡𝐚𝐯𝐞 𝐬𝐞𝐧𝐬𝐢𝐛𝐥𝐲 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐝𝐨 𝐧𝐨𝐭 𝐠𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐢𝐧 𝐭𝐨 𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐜𝐮𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐬' 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐯𝐨𝐜𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬. 🚀 𝑷𝒓𝒐𝒇𝒊𝒕𝒔 𝒕𝒐 𝒚’𝒂𝒍𝒍! 💸 #Solana #Cryptocurrency #ETF #Altcoins #CryptoMarket #Trading #Investing #FinancialMarkets #VanEck #SEC #Bitcoin #NYSE #NASDAQ #CryptoTrading #MarketTrends
