Brazil approves Solana ETF – Could this be the breakthrough SOL needs?

  • Solana ETFs approved in Brazil.
  • Despite the approval of Solana based ETFs, the market remains bearish.

As a seasoned crypto investor with over a decade of experience in this dynamic and unpredictable market, I must admit that I have seen my fair share of highs and lows. The recent approval of Solana ETFs in Brazil has undoubtedly stirred excitement within the community, but as someone who’s learned to read between the lines, I remain cautiously optimistic.


For the past three months, there’s been great anticipation within the crypto market regarding the acceptance of Solana ETFs (Exchange Traded Funds). The initial applications for these Solana-based ETFs were submitted in Canada, followed by similar requests in the U.S. during June.

The green light for Ethereum ETFs has fueled optimism about the possibility of Solana ETFs as well. After much anticipation, the Brazilian Securities and Exchange Commission (CMV) has finally given the go-ahead to the world’s inaugural Solana-focused exchange-traded funds.

Brazil’s CVM approves Solana ETFs

After many months of waiting, the first SOL ETF ever was approved in Brazil.

As reported by the CVM (Comissão de Valores Mobiliários), the Securities and Exchange Commission of Brazil, the SOL ETFs are currently undergoing preparations for operation. However, they have not been officially approved by the Brazilian stock exchange yet.

In Brazil, the Solana-related Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) will employ CME CF Solana dollar benchmark rates. These rates are developed by CF Benchmarks as part of their partnership with the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME).

Additionally, the Brazilian asset manager QR will provide the ETF, and Vortax will be the manager.

By greenlighting the first SOL ETF, Brazil has established itself as a global leader embracing cryptocurrencies. For the past three years, it has ventured into numerous investment opportunities involving Ethereum and Bitcoin, thus demonstrating a broad and innovative stance towards digital currencies.

Upon closer examination, it appears that the total open interest on Coinglass has dropped significantly from $3.09 billion to $2.02 billion within the last week.
