U.S. Investors Bet Big on Solana, Fresh Data Reveals Key Player Interest Is At A High

21.09.2026 / Payment system news

Cryptocurrency investors in the United States appear fully invested in Solana, as investments in Solana’s Spot Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs) have skyrocketed recently. This development further solidifies Solana’s dominance in the broader cryptocurrency ecosystem. 

According to data from SolanaFloor, U.S. spot Solana ETFs recorded $47.62 million in net inflows on September 18th. The entire amount flowed into Bitwise’s Solana Staking ETF (BSOL), while other funds in the category posted zero net flows for the day.

The strong single-day intake pushed total assets under management for U.S. Solana ETFs to about $1.62 billion, with cumulative net inflows reaching about $1.42 billion. 

BSOL remains the group’s dominant product, holding roughly $1.14 billion in assets and continuing to capture most investor interest amid a broader multi-week inflow streak for Solana-linked funds.

Notably, Bitwise’s Solana Staking ETF (BSOL), a U.S. exchange-traded fund that provides investors with direct exposure to the price of Solana (SOL) while also generating staking rewards, launched in October 2025 and has notably outperformed since its inception. 

It is also worth noting that during the week that closed on September 18, Solana ETFs attracted notably larger net inflows, around $60.7 million according to available figures, allowing their run of consecutive positive weeks to continue. Bitcoin ETFs, by contrast, experienced an unusually subdued period with minimal movement. 

Solana also set a new all-time high for on-chain activity in August, handling 5.2 billion non-vote transactions. This total is up 19% from July’s prior record after removing all consensus voting traffic from the count.

Interestingly, memecoin trading fueled most of the growth and drove weekly spot volume to $5.2 billion. That volume level marked the highest weekly figure recorded since November 2025. At report time, Solana’s SOL is up 7.65% and now trades at a press-time price of $117 per asset.
