Wall Street Welcomes Solana Staking With First US ETF Offering On-Chain Rewards

The investment landscape reaches a new milestone as REX-Osprey launches SSK, the first U.S.-listed ETF combining Solana (SOL) exposure with direct on-chain staking rewards. Commencing trading on July 2, 2025, the REX-Osprey Solana + Staking ETF enables traditional investors to earn native crypto yields through standard brokerage accounts.

The innovative fund structure provides spot market access to Solana, eliminating contango risks associated with futures contracts. Its hybrid staking approach allocates 50-60% of assets to directly staked SOL positions, while 40% invests in exchange-traded staking products. The remaining portion includes liquid staking derivatives such as JitoSOL. Notably, REX and Osprey pass 100% of staking rewards to investors without taking any management cut.

This product represents Wall Street's first crypto-native yield mechanism in an ETF wrapper, marking a significant convergence between traditional finance and blockchain ecosystems.
