The divergence between Goldman Sachs' large new entry and Susquehanna's near-exit suggests uncertainty around the Solana staking ETF's yield sustainability or fee structure. Monitor for any changes in Solana staking yields or ETF expense ratios that could explain the sell-side conviction. The absence of insider buying reduces the bullish signal from the new Goldman position.
Executive Summary
Institutional activity in Bitwise Solana Staking ETF (BSOL) was mixed in Q2 2026, with Goldman Sachs initiating a $39M position and Jane Street doubling its stake, while Susquehanna and IMC-Chicago substantially reduced holdings. The net institutional flow was negative, with $41.7M in buying offset by $30.9M in selling, suggesting divergent views on the Solana staking yield thesis. The lack of insider buying weakens conviction in the bullish side of the trade.
