VanEck's Matthew Sigel is optimistic about the approval of a Solana ETF, citing legal perspectives and infrastructure utility. He believes that Solana is a commodity like Bitcoin and Ethereum, emphasizing the importance of decentralization and network progress. Despite the removal of the company's filings from the CBOE website, Sigel remains confident in this belief and is committed to advocating this position alongside exchange partners.
Sigel, the Head of Digital Asset Research at VanEck, highlighted that courts and regulators have begun to recognize certain crypto assets as commodities in secondary markets, despite their classification as securities in primary markets. He expressed optimism toward the approval of the Solana ETF, addressing concerns surrounding the removal of the company's filings from the CBOE website and emphasizing the evolving legal perspectives that inform his belief in Solana as a commodity.
Regarding decentralization, Sigel noted that Solana has made progress, with the top 100 holders now possessing 27% of the supply, a notable reduction over the last 12 months. The network also boasts over 1,500 validators spanning 41 countries, with 10% of addresses holding less than 9% of the supply. He emphasized the upcoming Firedancer client as a further enhancement to decentralization, ensuring no single entity can dominate the blockchain. Sigel affirmed VanEck's commitment to advocating this position alongside exchange partners to appropriate regulators.
