For years, traditional finance laughed at crypto. But now? The same institutions that dismissed it are fighting to launch their own crypto ETFs. And it’s happening faster than anyone expected. The approval of just one could be a catalyst. But three? That could ignite a historic bull run.
These ETFs could legitimize the entire industry overnight. But here’s the thing: these ETFs aren’t just investment vehicles. They’re much more. They’re the bridge between TradFi and crypto’s next bull run. And with these 3, you can frontrun all the big institutions that are going to try to crowd you out later…… In this video, I will show you how these ETFs could finally bridge Wall Street and Web3. And how this moment might redefine the future of digital assets.
Can These 3 Spot ETFs Launch With a Government Shutdown
Before I show you which spot ETFs are imminent, I need to first check something else. Can these ETFs actually launch with a government shutdown? The answer to this question would be no, right? However, how come we apparently have three spot ETFs going live tomorrow?
Well, that needs some explanation. So, here we go. By now, you should be familiar with the S-1 form. This is the initial registration statement filed with the SEC. Here’s a sample of such an S-1 form. So, when filing a crypto spot ETF, this is an important step and form in the registration process. You probably agree with that, right?
The 8-A Form
However, there’s another form that is also very essential. This is the 8-A filing form. So, this form registers a company’s securities for trading on an exchange. For crypto ETFs, it signifies that the fund is one step closer to being approved and being able to start trading. The filing itself does not equal SEC approval. However, it’s a procedural step that must be completed before the ETF shares can be listed and offered to the public. This form requires filing under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The S-1 form registers them under the Securities Act of 1933.
So, the 8-A is another critical form that needs filing. But here’s the plot twist. Typically, the SEC needs to approve these filings. However, these three were smart. They inserted some add-ons in their filings. So, they amended their S-1s in a way that let them automatically go effective 20 days after filing. In other words, the SEC doesn’t need to approve them manually. So, although we have a shutdown, the filings can go live on their own. As journalist Eleanor Terret mentions on X, they ticked all legal boxes.
🚨NEW: @CanaryFunds spot $HBAR and $LTC ETFs are now effective and will begin trading on the NASDAQ tomorrow, according to CEO @stevenmcclurg.
“Litecoin and Hedera are the next two token ETFs to go effective after Ethereum,” McClurg told me in a statement. “We look forward to… https://t.co/tPjsjLEE3R

Eric Balchunas also confirmed that these three ETFs will launch tomorrow. He’s a senior ETF analyst for Bloomberg. However, with the caveat; Assuming there’s not some last min SEC intervention.
Confirmed. The Exchange has just posted listing notices for Bitwise Solana, Canary Litecoin and Canary HBAR to launch TOMORROW and grayscale Solana to convert the day after. Assuming there’s not some last min SEC intervention, looks like this is happening. https://t.co/bHwRnc1jsn

They can begin trading without a separate, new SEC sign-off for each fund. That’s because of the new exchange/adoption and automatic effectiveness procedures. There’s a legal backbone to this. Among others.
- SEC rules and prior staff interaction.
- Exchange rule filings.
- Issuer S-1/8-A filings.
So, in short, they’re launching because the regulatory paperwork is in place. Like the filings and exchange notices. Not because the SEC ignored them. So, now let’s take a look at these three new spot ETFs.
Solana $SOL ETF
So, the first spot ETF, I’m going to cover is the Bitwise Solana $SOL spot ETF. To top it off, this is also a staking ETF. In other words, you can earn passive income from it. That’s of course by staking the $SOL. And all this, without having to own the actual asset. This ETF will go by the name of $BSOL.
Introducing $BSOL — the Bitwise Solana Staking ETF. Starts trading tomorrow.
– First U.S. ETP to have 100% direct exposure to spot SOL
– Maximizing Solana’s 7%+ average staking reward rate*
– Targeting 100% of assets staked
– Staking through Bitwise Onchain Solutions, powered by… pic.twitter.com/Vo8Ko0qOCn— Bitwise (@BitwiseInvest) October 27, 2025
This makes it the first ever US ETP to have 100% direct exposure to spot $SOL. As a bonus, it offers the 7+% staking rewards on $SOL. Currently with 0% fees, Bitwise waives them for a limited time. The website is also live.
There’s also a Grayscale spot ETF that’s supposed to launch a day later than these three. Eric Balchunas wrote that on X. So, exciting times ahead of us.
However, the strange thing to me is that the $SOL price didn’t move. Instead, it went sideways. It’s still hovering around the $200 range. I still think that Solana is one of the runners during this quarter. Nonetheless, this sideways shuffle is strange.
$SOL is still holding its 3-year support trendline.
The most important level for Solana is $280, and a weekly close above it will trigger a massive rally.
I still think $400-$500 SOL is happening this cycle. pic.twitter.com/vPOkJwWnGS

Hedera $HBAR ETF
Hedera $HBAR spot ETF by Canary Capital is the second one. The Nasdaq has officially posted the Canary $HBAR ETF (Ticker: $HBR) listing circular. BitGo and Coinbase Custody will be the custodians. CoinDesk Indices will deliver the official pricing.
CONFIRMED: Nasdaq has officially posted the Canary $HBAR ETF (Ticker: $HBR) listing circular.
The fund is set to begin trading on October 28, 2025, offering direct SPOT exposure to $HBAR , the native token of the Hedera Network.

Canary Capital’s CEO, Steven McClurg, posted this; Tomorrow is a long time coming. So, the $HBAR ETF gives institutional investors regulated access to Hedera. There’s no need to hold crypto directly. That’s one of the advantages a spot ETF offers. The issuer holds the underlying asset. As a buyer, there’s no need to visit a crypto exchange and have a crypto wallet. Many investors, especially institutions, see this as an advantage.
In contrast to $SOL, the $HBAR price did move. And not only a little bit. Today, the $HBAR price is up by no less than 17.8% to 21 cents. Over the last 7 days, it’s even up by 26%. If you bought $HBAR a year ago, you’re now up by 346%. Some X accounts see $HBAR now go to as high as 48 cents.
🔹 $HBAR – Hedera Hashgraph
📍 Current Price: $0.1995
🎯 Upper Target: $0.31 – $0.48
📉 Lower Target: $0.17 – $0.11
⚠️ Just my prediction, not financial advice.

Litecoin $LTC ETF
The Canary capital Litecoin $LTC spot ETF is the last one for today. Many crypto OGs hearts might start racing by the view of this. Providing, they diamond handed their $LTC bags. I’m pretty sure that along the way, many have sold their bags. Nonetheless, the $LTC spot ETF is a fact. The ticker will be $LTTC.
Canary Capital has just filed form 8-A with the SEC for the Canary Litecoin ETF to be listed on the @Nasdaq. Indicating that a launch is imminent and trading could soon commence. (NASDAQ:LTCC)

The $LTC price also reacted positively to the Nasdaq listing. The current $LTC price is $102 and up 2.8% on the day. Will this be the catalyst to pump $LTC to $400 and new ATHs?
Some companies might be secretly buying $LTC and once they about to finished their purchase, they will make the announcement.
People will start to get interest in it, together with ETF approval. It could give a good run up in Nov-Dec.$LTC back to $400 in Dec 2025. pic.twitter.com/HkCHrkd8mm

Now, the big question is what will this really do to the respective prices of these assets? The $BTC and $ETH ETFs triggered short-lived price surges. They were around 5 to 15%, followed by retracements once the hype cooled. Most inflows during the first week are liquidity-seeking arbitrage trades, not long-term holdings.
For the medium term, ETFs can stabilize and support gradual price appreciation. Staking options like the $SOL ETF are beneficial.
But for Hedera and Litecoin, price impacts will depend heavily on whether funds gain liquidity depth and index inclusion. They also have smaller ecosystems and fewer narratives.
So, yes, these ETFs could lift prices modestly. They can also deepen legitimacy, especially for Solana. This has strong institutional and DeFi traction. However, they likely won’t create instant wealth for issuers. That will take time.
The biggest value may actually be credibility and visibility. It positions Solana as a mainstream investable asset. I see this for Hedera and Litecoin to a lesser extent.
Why Is This Useful Alpha?
Knowing about this is good Alpha. That’s because ETFs move markets long before they launch. Smart traders know this. While most people wait for the headlines, the real money positions early. Institutions are already preparing, and when approvals hit, liquidity and FOMO flood in. That’s when prices explode.
The secret isn’t chasing hype. Instead, it’s spotting filings, trends, and timing your entry before the crowd. So, if you position yourself early, that’s how you can profit from this.
