Coinshares withdrew an sec filing for a staked solana etf. this was for a deal that was 'never effectuated' and 'no shares were sold.' while the withdrawal removes a potential institutional investment vehicle, it wasn't an active product, thus the direct impact on sol's price is minimal, especially since other staked sol etfs are already live and attracting inflows.
The information comes directly from coinshares' sec filing, making it a verifiable and reliable source.
The withdrawal of an uncompleted etf application is a minor setback but not a significant new bearish catalyst. existing staked sol etfs continue to attract capital, and sol's price has already been in a downtrend despite these inflows. this news is unlikely to cause a dramatic shift in direction.
Any market reaction to the withdrawal of an uncompleted etf application would likely be immediate but short-lived, given the minor nature of the event.
