The post 7 Solana ETF Issuers File S-1, Analyst Doubts Next Week Approval appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.

Seven Solana ETF applicants filed S-1 statements with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on June 13; however, Bloomberg ETF analyst James Seyffart doubts approval will come as soon as next week. “I think there needs to be a back and forth with the SEC and issuers to iron out details, so I doubt it.

VanEck — which was the first US firm to file for a spot Solana ETF in June 2024 — was the last to submit its amended S-1 amended filing for the day.
