Bitwise’s Solana ETF Reaches New AUM High
The Bitwise Solana Staking ETF (BSOL) has reportedly reached an all-time high of more than $1.2 billion in assets under management (AUM) after attracting more than $60 million in inflows over two days, according to Bitwise CEO Hunter Horsley.
The update highlights continued demand for exchange-traded products offering direct exposure to Solana alongside staking-related exposure. BSOL trades under the ticker BSOL and provides investors with exposure to SOL through an exchange-traded product structure.
The $1.2 billion figure and two-day inflow total were highlighted by Horsley, with the comments reported on September 22, 2026. A report covering the update said the original social-media post was later deleted, so the figures should be understood as statements attributed to the Bitwise CEO rather than independently verified figures from a newly published Bitwise AUM release.
BSOL Combines SOL Exposure With Staking
Bitwise launched BSOL in October 2025 as a U.S. exchange-traded product designed to provide direct exposure to SOL while incorporating staking into the product structure. Bitwise said at launch that it intended to stake 100% of the fund’s SOL holdings through its own onchain infrastructure powered by Helius.
Investors can learn more about the product through Bitwise’s official BSOL information. The fund’s regulatory documentation is also available through the SEC filing for the Bitwise Solana Staking ETF, which identifies BSOL as the fund’s ticker and describes its investment objective of providing exposure to the value of SOL held by the trust, less expenses and liabilities.
Staking is an important part of the product because Solana uses a proof-of-stake consensus mechanism. On the network, SOL holders can delegate tokens to validators, helping those validators participate in consensus while potentially earning staking rewards. Solana explains the process in its official staking documentation.
$60 Million in Two-Day Inflows
The reported more than $60 million in inflows over two days represents a notable short-term increase in capital flowing into the Solana-focused ETF.
For an ETF, inflows generally refer to new capital entering the product through creations of fund shares, although changes in AUM can also reflect movements in the underlying asset's market value. As a result, AUM and net inflows are related but are not identical measures.
In this case, the reported inflows came alongside a new AUM record above $1.2 billion. That combination means the fund's assets under management reached a higher level while investors were adding capital during the two-day period highlighted by Horsley.
Bitwise's own fund materials show that BSOL remains part of the firm's broader crypto ETF lineup. The company's current fund information lists BSOL alongside its other crypto exchange-traded products.
Solana Staking Adds Another Layer to ETF Exposure
BSOL differs from a conventional spot crypto product because its structure incorporates staking. Bitwise previously said the fund was designed to stake its SOL holdings through Bitwise Onchain Solutions, with Helius providing staking technology.
For beginners, staking can be understood as committing SOL to support the operation and security of the Solana network through validators. Solana's official documentation says delegated SOL contributes to validator stake weight, while eligible stakers can receive rewards. The actual reward rate can change depending on factors including network inflation, the amount of SOL staked and validator performance.
Solana also documents stake accounts and the mechanics used to delegate SOL to validators. Its official stake-account documentation provides technical details about how staking accounts operate on the network.
BSOL’s Growth Follows an Earlier AUM Milestone
The latest reported milestone comes after BSOL crossed $500 million in AUM in November 2025. At the time, Bitwise said the fund reached that level within its first 18 days of trading.
That earlier milestone came shortly after BSOL began trading in October 2025. Bitwise described the product as the first U.S. ETP with 100% direct exposure to SOL and one of the first crypto ETPs with built-in staking.
The progression from the initial $500 million milestone to the latest reported figure above $1.2 billion represents a significant expansion in the amount of capital associated with the product. However, the latest $1.2 billion figure remains based on the statement attributed to Horsley rather than a newly published Bitwise announcement confirming the exact AUM.
What the New AUM Record Means
The reported record places the Bitwise Solana Staking ETF among the more closely watched institutional products providing exposure to Solana. The combination of direct SOL exposure and staking is central to BSOL's structure and distinguishes it from products that only track an asset's market price.
The reported $60 million in two-day inflows also shows that capital can move into crypto investment products in relatively concentrated periods. Still, short-term inflows should not be interpreted as a guarantee of future fund performance or SOL price movements.
For now, the key development is the reported milestone: BSOL has surpassed $1.2 billion in AUM after more than $60 million of inflows over two days, according to Bitwise CEO Hunter Horsley. The figure adds another notable chapter to the growth of Solana-focused exchange-traded products in the U.S.
