These companies are preparing for a 2025 that may be beneficial for their applications. Matthew Sigel, head of digital asset research at VanEck, assured that the chances of there being a solana ETF in the United States “are overwhelmingly high by 2025”.
This optimism is based on the victory of Donald Trump in the presidential elections on November 5th and expressed support towards the cryptocurrency sector.
