Solana spot ETFs extend inflow streak as Bitwise adds SOL exposure
US spot Solana ETFs posted 6 straight sessions of net inflows, Bitwise led with more than $55 million on 25 September, and SOL reached $122, its highest since January.
Why it matters
The flows make spot Solana ETFs a regular institutional channel for the asset, with Bitwise extending its lead in the category and Grayscale ranking second. Price direction is unsettled, since one account describes a rally to a level last seen in January and another reports a drop, so the size of the inflows is firmer than the direction of the price.

Reported by U.Today
What happened
US spot Solana ETFs have taken in net capital on 6 consecutive trading sessions, and Crypto News reported that SOL cleared $119 resistance to reach $122, its highest since January. Net inflows on 25 September came to roughly $86 million, with Bitwise taking more than $55 million and Grayscale $18 million and no fund posting a net outflow that day, a figure CryptoPotato also reported. U.Today said the stretch covering 21 to 25 September was the largest weekly total the funds have recorded since they launched late last year, with every ETF in the complex taking in money over the week and Bitwise's BSOL holding the largest share ahead of Grayscale. SOL traded down to $112 earlier in the run before recovering, and Crypto News reported its Delta reading and exchange netflow both turning in buyers' favour. U.Today later reported that Bitwise had drawn in more than $9 million into its Solana ETF as of 28 September even as the price slipped, extending its buying run and leaving the firm in need of another $270 million in net inflows to reach its stated milestone. The two U.Today accounts point in opposite price directions, and nothing in the reporting settles whether the inflows continue if SOL keeps falling.
