Canada Approves First Solana Spot ETFs With Staking Functionality
In a major move for altcoin adoption, Canada Asset Management launched four Solana (SOL) Spot ETFs on April 16 via the Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX). This approval marks a historic milestone — the first Solana ETF in North America to feature built-in staking rewards.
Each Solana ETF will track the USD price of SOL while offering investors the ability to earn annualized yields between 6% and 8% through staking. This gives passive investors exposure not only to price appreciation, but also to on-chain yield — a unique proposition in the current crypto ETF landscape.
The Solana ETF approval date comes at a time when institutional demand for yield-generating crypto products continues to rise, and Solana is increasingly positioned as a high-performance Layer 1 alternative to Ethereum.
Bitunix Analyst: SOL Watching $122 Support, $149.74 Breakout Zone
According to Bitunix analysts, the launch of the Canada Solana ETF may provide a short-term sentiment boost to SOL, though key technical levels will determine near-term market direction.
As of April 2025, Solana is still down approximately 33.21% year-to-date, reflecting the broader market pullback from Q1 highs.
That said, ETF capital inflows and investor reaction will be important drivers to watch.
Key Levels to Watch (April 2025)
-
Support: $122
-
Resistance: $149.74
A strong defense of the $122 support could stabilize the price and invite renewed interest. A breakout above $149.74 would likely open the door for a larger bullish move, especially if ETF adoption builds momentum.
What This Means for Investors
The approval of a Solana Spot ETF — especially one that includes staking — is a significant step forward for mainstream altcoin exposure. It reflects growing institutional confidence in the Solana ecosystem and positions SOL alongside Bitcoin and Ethereum in regulated investment products.
But as always, analysts at Bitunix caution traders:
“Before entering any position, assess your risk tolerance and investment goals. Monitor ETF volume and flow in the coming weeks — and remember, technical levels can shift fast if sentiment changes.”
Final Thoughts
With Solana ETF approval now official in Canada, SOL joins the ranks of regulated, institution-ready crypto assets. The combination of spot tracking and staking rewards makes this a uniquely attractive product — and a potentially powerful narrative for Solana heading into Q2.
But until price confirms strength above resistance, the focus remains on consolidation and ETF market reaction.
