SEC Kicks the Solana ETF Can Down the Road—Again! You Won’t Believe the Excuses!

by

Well, well, well… the postponement heard ’round the blockchain. Everyone’s shocked—shocked!—that the SEC is taking its sweet time (up to 240 days, don’t ask why, they like their calendars) before deciding if Grayscale’s Solana ETF gets a shiny green light or the ol’ regulatory rubber chicken. So when’s this grand decision? October 2025. That’s right, folks, put it on your grandma’s birthday calendar—she’ll need the reminder more than the SEC does! 🗓️

This dazzling move? Classic SEC! It’s practically tradition: stall, ask for more paperwork, make coffee, stall some more. They call it “evaluating 19b-4 filings.” I call it “stretching one memo over a year.” They’re checking everything—laws, structure, if anyone spelled ‘ETF’ right, you name it. Maybe someone’s still waiting for their computer to boot up.

And why the delay? Oh, the drama! The SEC wants you to think they’re “carefully weighing the regulatory complexities and risks” of crypto stuff. Translation: they’re still not convinced these SOL-based ETFs are anything more than magic internet money or the world’s fanciest Monopoly tokens. 🎩💸

Big picture: this review is part of Uncle Sam’s latest “Operation: Watch That Crypto!” extravaganza. They’re making sure digital thingamajigs like these don’t slip past the velvet ropes of compliance before you or your neighbor’s dog can buy a share. Really, it’s the SEC’s favorite sport—delaying decisions and making everyone guess what decade they’ll say yes or no. 🕵️‍♂️
