Our read on GSOL
AGrayscale ran a Solana trust back in 2021, long before spot Solana ETFs existed. GSOL is that vehicle grown up: NYSE Arca listed, staking the SOL it holds, priced at 0.19%.
The Trust is designed to passively track the value of Solana held by it, including Solana earned through staking, after expenses and liabilities.
Why people hold it
- 0.19% a year, below the median fee among spot Solana funds.
- The coins work. The trust is designed to track the value of the Solana it holds, including Solana earned through staking, after expenses, so rewards compound inside the fund.
- Long lineage for a crypto product: the trust dates to 2021 and was the first Grayscale staking vehicle to uplist to NYSE Arca under the SEC's new generic listing standards.davispolk.com
- Sits in the upper half of its Solana cohort and stays tight to its stated mandate of passively tracking the Solana it holds.
Worth knowing
- One token, no cushion. The whole position tracks SOL, and single-asset crypto moves hard in both directions.
- Staking rewards land in the fund's value, not your cash account. Distributions are annual or semiannual, not a regular income stream.
- The Solana shelf is priced tightly: BSOL at 0.20% and TSOL at 0.21% sit within a couple of basis points, so the fee edge here is thin.
