Grayscale Introduces Staking to Ethereum and Solana Investment Products
Grayscale has integrated staking into its ether and solana investment products, marking the first time U.S.-listed spot crypto ETPs offer this feature.
The update affects the Grayscale Ethereum Trust ETF (ETHE), Ethereum Mini Trust ETF (ETH), and Grayscale Solana Trust (GSOL).
ETHE manages approximately $4.82 billion, ETH has $3.31 billion, and GSOL holds $122.5 million in assets.
Staking allows investors to earn rewards from blockchain networks without holding or managing the underlying assets directly.
Grayscale will stake assets via institutional custodians and validator providers, aiming to support network operations while fulfilling fund objectives.
ETHE and ETH provide exposure to ether, while GSOL involves solana and trades over-the-counter.
GSOL could be among the first listed Solana ETPs featuring staking, pending approval for exchange trading.
