Cryptocurrency journalist Summers has brought attention to the disappearance of key documents related to proposed Solana ETFs from the CBOE website.
The filings, identified as SR-CboeBZX-2024-066 and SR-CboeBZX-2024-067, appear to have been removed, sparking speculation about Solana ETFs.
The applications, submitted on July 8th by VanEck and 21Shares, aimed to launch Solana ETFs, marking a potential third wave of spot cryptocurrency ETFs following the SEC’s approval of Bitcoin ETFs earlier this year. The SEC’s approval is crucial for these products to commence trading, but the agency’s rules do not impose a strict deadline for reviewing investor disclosure filings.
Summers noted that the SEC has yet to issue Notices of Filing for these applications, raising the question of whether the 19b-4 filings have been withdrawn. This development leaves the cryptocurrency community and potential investors in suspense, as they await further clarity on the situation.
VanEck and 21Shares had applied with the SEC in June to launch these new Solana ETF products.
