The post Hong Kong Officially Approves First Solana ETF, Alongside BTC & ETH appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News

Hong Kong has just made history by approving the world’s first spot Solana (SOL) exchange-traded fund (ETF), following the earlier approvals of Bitcoin and Ethereum spot ETFs, marking Solana as the third cryptocurrency to receive such recognition in the region.

Following the news, Solana’s SOL jumped into the green, trading around $184 after a long period of losses.

Solana ETF Makes Its Debut on HKEX

The ChinaAMC Solana ETF, issued by China Asset Management Company, will list on October 27 on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange under ticker 03460. Each trading unit represents 100 SOL, with a minimum investment of about US$100, making it accessible to all investors.

The Solana ETF will operate under a well-structured and regulated framework. OSL Exchange will handle trading and settlements, while OSL Digital Securities Ltd. will serve as the sub-custodian.

Unlike traditional funds, this ETF will track the Solana Market Price Index and hold real SOL tokens in secure, regulated wallets under Hong Kong’s digital asset rules.

By offering direct exposure to Solana’s token (SOL), the ETF allows investors to track its price without holding the cryptocurrency directly. 

Institutional Confidence Rising On Solana

The approval comes amid rising institutional demand for Solana-based products following the CME Group’s recent listing of Solana futures options on October 13, 2025. 

According to ChinaAMC, the SOL ETF aims to give investors easy access to Web3 assets and support the growth of high-speed blockchain networks.

Major financial institutions, including JPMorgan, have projected that Solana ETFs could attract over $1.5 billion in inflows over the next year.​

Why Hong Kong Approved Solana First

Analysts believe that Solana was approved due to its fast transactions, low fees, and growing use in DeFi and NFTs. Its network handles over 90 million transactions daily. 

Institutional holdings have risen 230%, with companies like Forward Industries and Helius buying SOL for staking and reserves.

ETF analyst Nate Geraci said Hong Kong is ahead of the U.S., and the Solana ETF could lead to other blockchain ETFs like Cardano and Avalanche, once frameworks mature.​

With major ETF issuers like VanEck, Fidelity, and 21Shares still awaiting U.S. clearance, Hong Kong’s regulatory confidence in Solana could shape the next wave of cryptocurrency-led financial innovation worldwide.​

Here’s How Consumers May Benefit From Lower Interest Rates

The post Here’s How Consumers May Benefit From Lower Interest Rates appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Topline The Federal Reserve on Wednesday opted to ease interest rates for the first time in months, leading the way for potentially lower mortgage rates, bond yields and a likely boost to cryptocurrency over the coming weeks. Average long-term mortgage rates dropped to their lowest levels in months ahead of the central bank’s policy shift. Copyright{2018} The Associated Press. All rights reserved. Key Facts The central bank’s policymaking panel voted this week to lower interest rates, which have sat between 4.25% and 4.5% since December, to a new range of 4% and 4.25%. How Will Lower Interest Rates Impact Mortgage Rates? Mortgage rates tend to fall before and during a period of interest rate cuts: The average 30-year fixed-rate mortgage dropped to 6.35% from 6.5% last week, the lowest level since October 2024, mortgage buyer Freddie Mac reported. Borrowing costs on 15-year fixed-rate mortgages also dropped to 5.5% from 5.6% as they neared the year-ago rate of 5.27%. When the Federal Reserve lowered the funds rate to between 0% and 0.25% during the pandemic, 30-year mortgage rates hit record lows between 2.7% and 3% by the end of 2020, according to data published by Freddie Mac. Consumers who refinanced their mortgages in 2020 saved about $5.3 billion annually as rates dropped, according to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. Similarly, mortgage rates spiked around 7% as interest rates were hiked in 2022 and 2023, though mortgage rates appeared to react within weeks of the Fed opting to cut or raise rates. How Do Treasury Bonds Respond To Lower Interest Rates? Long-term Treasury yields are more directly influenced by interest rates, as lower rates tend to result in lower yields. When the Fed pushed rates to near zero during the pandemic, 10-year Treasury yields fell to an all-time low of 0.5%. As…

CryptoQuant: Unrealized profits of whales holding 10,000 to 100,000 ETH hit a new high in November 2021

PANews reported on September 18th that CryptoQuant analyst CryptoOnchain reported that the unrealized profits of medium-sized whales holding 10,000 to 100,000 ETH in Ethereum wallets have climbed to levels last seen in November 2021, when ETH hit its all-time high. This suggests these whales are currently holding significant paper gains, similar to the situation at the previous market peak. Historical data shows that such high levels of unrealized profits are often accompanied by increased selling pressure or profit-taking, potentially influencing price trends. While this may not necessarily trigger an immediate market correction, investor psychology and whale behavior at this stage could have a significant impact on price fluctuations.
