ChinaAMC fund begins trading on HKEX, expanding regulated access to SOL for investors across the region.
Hong Kong has launched Asia’s first Solana (SOL) spot ETF, approved by the city’s Securities and Futures Commission (SFC). The ChinaAMC Solana ETF started trading on Monday on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange (HKEX), with shares available in HKD, RMB, and USD.
The ETF is designed to physically hold Solana (SOL) tokens, mirroring the performance of the CME CF Solana-USD Index, which reflects the Asia-Pacific closing price.
According to its prospectus, the fund does not engage in staking, leverage, or derivatives trading. It conducts all transactions exclusively through virtual asset platforms licensed by Hong Kong’s Securities and Futures Commission (SFC).
The fund’s annual management fee is set at 0.99%, with BOCI-Prudential Trustee Limited serving as custodian and OSL Digital Securities acting as the virtual asset sub-custodian.
Global Expansion Momentum
The approval marks a milestone in Solana’s (SOL) global expansion, coming on the heels of Brazil’s earlier rollout of a spot Solana ETF.
Following the announcement, trading volumes in SOL jumped 40% to $8 billion within a day, signaling renewed investor enthusiasm. SOL’s price, however, saw only a modest uptick — rising 2.4% to $202.66 over the past 24 hours.
The move is expected to broaden institutional participation, with projections indicating up to $1.5 billion in inflows into Solana spot ETFs worldwide by the end of 2025.
Why This Matters
The launch provides investors with a regulated way to access Solana, underscoring the growing role of cryptocurrency in mainstream financial markets.
