Solana

Franklin Templeton’s Head of Digital Assets, Roger Baston, shared insights into the future of cryptocurrency investments, highlighting the potential of Solana (SOL) as a new candidate for an Exchange-Traded Fund (ETF). 
This follows a week marked by significant fund flows in the Ethereum ETF market despite a general decline in Ether prices. 
<h2 id="franklin-templeton-s-focus-on-demystifying-crypto">Franklin Templeton’s Focus on Demystifying Crypto</h2> 
In an interview with Bloomberg, Roger Baston stressed that Franklin Templeton is focused on demystifying and opening up the world of crypto investments. When asked about the initial demand for the <a href="https://coingape.com/tag/spot-ethereum-etf/">spot Ethereum ETF</a> and whether there was any disappointment due to Ethereum not rallying, Baston clarified,&nbsp; 
<blockquote>
 “No, there’s no disappointment at all. I think we’re super early in this transition of making crypto easy to access.”
</blockquote> 
He pointed out that, although Ethereum has not yet become as famous as Bitcoin, it holds a lot of promise because its network is capable of solving many issues in the decentralized environment. 
Baston discussed how the company is trying to make these assets more accessible to investors through brokerage accounts and ETFs. Franklin Templeton Head of Digital Assets also expressed optimism about the future, not just for Ethereum and Bitcoin, but also for other promising projects in the blockchain and digital asset infrastructure. 
<h2 id="potential-of-spot-solana-etf">Potential of Spot Solana ETF</h2> 
However, when asked about Ethereum’s possible complexity for the ordinary investor, Baston agreed that it could be overwhelming.&nbsp; 
Nonetheless, according to him, those investors interested in technology-based portfolios may well welcome the improvements on efficiency brought about by decentralized ledger systems such as Ethereum. 
Baston also referred to <a href="https://coingape.com/tag/solana-sol/">Solana</a> as another network with high growth potential like Ethereum. He spoke about the need to assess various networks and the possibilities of diversifying the digital assets. This aligns with Franklin Templeton’s ongoing assessment approach, and possible allocation of blockchain projects depending on their merits and demand from investors. 
<h2 id="strong-sec-s-revised-stance-on-solana-strong">SEC’s Revised Stance on Solana</h2> 
At the same time, the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) amended its complaint against Binance also excluding Solana from its list of securities.&nbsp; 
This change could mark a change in the regulatory views, which could create new possibilities like a <a href="https://coingape.com/tag/spot-solana-etf/">Solana ETF</a> aligning with Franklin Templeton’s forecast. 
Nonetheless, BlackRock’s CIO of ETFs, Samara Cohen, in a Coingape report, stated that the firm is not looking to launch more crypto ETFs, including a Solana ETF, even though it admitted that Bitcoin and Ethereum have been successful. This still creates a window for other companies such as Franklin Templeton to come up with new products in the crypto ETFs. 
<h2 id="strong-ether-etfs-experience-mixed-flows-strong">Ether ETFs Experience Mixed Flows&nbsp;</h2> 
Ether ETFs have had a volatile first week of trading, with several of them down 4% or more in line with the fall in Ether prices. However, some new funds received huge investments, with BlackRock being the most favored with $500 million. Other inflows of interest are Bitwise’s ETHW at $276 million and Fidelity’s FETH at $244 million. 
Franklin Templeton’s own EZET also saw an inflow of $26 million, reflecting growing interest in their offerings. 
On the other hand, <a href="https://coingape.com/tag/grayscale/">Grayscale’s</a> ETHE witnessed massive outflows with $1.72B which symbolized that many investors were pulling their money out of this investment. The high fees of 2.5% attached to Grayscale’s products have been cited as a reason for these outflows as investors seek cheaper options.
