Despite the ongoing partial government shutdown in the United States, the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) is set to launch new spot crypto exchange-traded funds (ETFs) this week. The listings are for Solana (SOL), Hedera (HBAR), and Litecoin (LTC), marking another significant step towards integrating digital assets into traditional financial markets. 10/28/2025 will see the debut of the first U.S. spot ETFs from Canary Capital for Hedera and Litecoin, with Bitwise Invest launching its Solana Staking ETF on the same day after receiving NYSE Arca certification. Grayscale’s Solana Trust (GSOL), previously available on the OTC market, is also scheduled to convert into a spot ETF on 10/29. This wave of launches follows the landmark approval of spot Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs in 2024, expanding access for both institutions and retail investors to a wider range of digital assets. The new ETFs offer more opportunities for yield generation through staking, as seen with Bitwise’s Solana Staking ETF. Notably, these listings demonstrate continued institutional demand and the increasing importance of regulated vehicles for crypto exposure, even amidst political turmoil.
