The cryptocurrency industry has been about hitting new milestones<\/a> in 2025, with the futures-based Solana and XRP ETFs (exchange-traded funds) among the latest to reach new achievements. According to the latest market data, the SOL and XRP ETFs have reached $1 billion in total capital inflows since their launch earlier. This feat comes on the back of rumors that the world\u2019s largest asset manager, BlackRock, might look to launch a spot XRP-based exchange-traded fund.<\/p>\n

SOL & XRP Futures ETFs Hit New Milestone<\/b><\/h2>\n

In an August 9 post on the X platform, the president of The ETF Store, Nate Geraci, revealed<\/a> that the futures-based Solana and XRP ETFs have attracted over $1 billion in capital since launch. These crypto-linked investment products started trading in the United States about five months ago\u2014around March (for SOL ETF) and April (for XRP).<\/p>\n

For context, futures-based exchange-traded funds are a type of investment product that holds the futures contracts of an asset. A futures contract is a financial instrument that allows an investor to buy an asset at a predetermined price on a predetermined date.<\/p>\n

In March 2025, Volatility Shares launched<\/a> the first-ever Solana exchange-traded funds in the United States. The firm rolled out two products at the time: Volatility Shares\u2019 Solana fund, which replicates the performance of Solana futures, and the 2x SOL ETF that offers double-leveraged exposure.<\/p>\n

While Teucrium launched the first US-based XRP ETF (a 2x leveraged fund) in April, Volatility Shares offered the first non-leveraged futures-based XRP exchange-traded fund in May. As shown in the chart below, both the SOL and XRP ETFs had posted only modest monthly performances up until July\u2014where they each posted approximately $350 million in capital inflows.<\/p>\n

Geraci noted that these figures include REX-Osprey\u2019s Solana staking exchange-traded fund, which boasts up to $150 million in assets under management. According to the ETF expert, this performance proves that there will be demand for spot SOL and XRP ETFs.<\/p>\n

Expert Doubles Down On BlackRock\u2019s Application For SOL And XRP ETFs<\/b><\/h2>\n

It is worth mentioning that a slew of applications from various asset managers are awaiting approval from the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to launch Solana and XRP ETFs. As reported by Bitcoinist<\/a>, BlackRock has indicated that it currently has no plans to join the race for spot Solana and XRP ETFs.\u00a0<\/p>\n

In a second post on X, Geraci reiterated his belief that BlackRock would be looking to expand its crypto ETF portfolio. \u201cAnd I\u2019m being told BlackRock doesn\u2019t want a piece of this?\u201d the ETF expert said, referring to the attention being enjoyed by the future-based version of the XRP exchange-traded fund.<\/p>\n
