SOL jumped above $164 in the minutes following the report, up nearly 5% over the past 24 hours.

After the debut of bitcoin and ether spot ETFs in the U.S. last year, asset managers are racing to get regulatory approval to launch similar vehicles for smaller cryptocurrencies, offering traditional investors easier access to invest in digital assets. Several asset managers have filed applications with the SEC to launch funds holding SOL, including Fidelity, Grayscale, Franklin Templeton and VanEck.

CoinDesk reached out to prospective issuers for confirmation but had not yet heard back at time of publication.
