Solana ETFs: Investors Bet Big Despite Price Drop

Solana's price might be going down, but that isn't stopping investors from putting money into Solana ETFs. Last week, these ETFs saw money flowing in for seven days straight. The biggest day was Tuesday, with $16. 6 million added. So far, Solana ETFs have pulled in $674 million since they started. These ETFs are pretty new. The first one came out in July, and another one launched in October. That October launch was one of the most popular ETF launches of 2025. Even though Solana's price is down, big investors are still interested. This is happening even as other signs, like the total value locked in Solana's smart contracts, are also dropping.Solana's price has taken a hit. It's down nearly 55% from its highest point in January. It's also trading below its average price over the last year. The token is struggling to break through a resistance level between $140 and $145. Even the launch of Solana ETFs and growing interest in crypto from regulators hasn't helped it close above that level. The market is showing mixed signals. On one hand, there's strong interest from institutional investors. On the other hand, Solana's price and on-chain metrics are struggling. This could mean that investors see long-term potential in Solana, despite its current price struggles. There's also talk about traditional finance moving on-chain. SEC Chair Paul Atkins mentioned this recently. If this happens, it could be a big deal for Solana and other crypto projects.
