Per Bitwise’s OWNB website, Fold holds 1,485 BTC worth roughly $130 million, while Bitdeer holds 1,039 BTC worth about $92 million.

Cboe BZX Exchange has officially filed form 19b-4 for a new Solana exchange-traded fund with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. The filing with the SEC sees Cboe officially add Fidelity’s proposed Solana ( SOL ) ETF to the growing list of altcoin related applications before the U.S. securities watchdog. With form 19b-4, Cboe is looking for SEC’s approval of a proposed rule change that will see the exchange list and trade shares of the Fidelity Solana Fund. Application for a nod from the regulator follows the registration of a Solana trust with the CSC Delaware Trust Company. Fidelity Investments now joins a host of industry players seeking regulatory approval for spot Solana ETFs from the SEC. They include Canary Capital, Franklin Templeton, Grayscale and VanEck. The 19b-4 filing comes just a day after Fidelity also sought SEC’s greenlight for a blockchain-based fund tracking its money market fund. As crypto.news highlighted , the company is looking to unveil an ETF for its on-chain fund the Fidelity Treasury Digital Fund. The fund, with ticker FYHXX, holds cash and U.S. Treasury securities. While the scramble for spot ETFs goes a notch higher with Cboe BZX’s filing with the SEC, the market is looking to gauge demand via the performance of Solana futures ETFs. Florida-based Volatility Shares debuted the Volatility Shares Solana ETF and Volatility Shares 2X Solana ETF on March 20, 2025. The two products, with ticker symbols SOLZ and SOLT respectively, saw notable volume on launch, which has prompted analysts to predict potential demand.

Ripple has agreed to drop its appeal against the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, according to Ripple chief legal officer Stuart Alderoty. Just days after the SEC dropped its case against XRP ( XRP ) creator Ripple, the company has confirmed it is also dropping its counter-appeal. In a post on X , Alderoty said both parties had not only agreed to withdraw their respective appeals but had also settled on a reduced fine, cutting the original $125 million penalty to $50 million. “The final crossing of t’s and dotting of i’s – and what should be my last update on SEC v Ripple ever,” Alderoty wrote. “Last week, the SEC agreed to drop its appeal without conditions. Ripple has now agreed to drop its cross-appeal. The SEC will keep $50M of the $125M fine (already in an interest-bearing escrow in cash), with the balance returned to Ripple.” The SEC is also set to request that Judge Analisa Torres lift the standard “obey the law” injunction imposed on Ripple following the agency’s motion. However, these agreements remain subject to a vote by the Commission. Final documentation and other standard court procedures also need to be completed. Once finalized, the Ripple versus SEC case, which began in December 2020, will officially conclude. The latest news around the case comes as the SEC takes a complete u-turn following the exit of former chair Gary Gensler. Reports that the regulator was winding up its case against Ripple also surfaced. Under new interim chair Mark Uyeda, the SEC has, over recent weeks, dropped investigations and closed several high-profile lawsuits, including those against crypto exchanges Coinbase and Kraken. A more pro-innovation stance has marked this new direction, moving away from the regulation-by-enforcement approach seen during Gensler’s tenure. Among the changes: roundtable meetings by the Crypto Task Force, now led by Commissioner Hester Peirce. Meanwhile, U.S. President Donald Trump’s pick for new SEC Chair Paul Atkins is expected to take over in coming weeks.

BitMEX co-founder Arthur Hayes has stirred up the crypto community with his latest prediction, stating that he believes Ethereum’s price will reach $5,000 before Solana achieves the $300 landmark. Hayes dropped this opinion in a recent post on X, and as you might expect, it got a lot of crypto enthusiasts talking. One respondent to Hayes’ comment agreed with his prediction, outlining the reasons why Ethereum might have a stronger bullish outlook compared to Solana. According to this user, Ethereum benefits from significant institutional backing, potential support from upcoming ETF developments, and a clearer path in terms of regulation. While acknowledging Solana’s speed and high throughput as key advantages for the network focused on scalability, the respondent also pointed out some challenges for Solana. These include its history of network downtime incidents and the perceived influence of venture capital firms on the project. Hayes’ optimistic outlook for Ethereum comes on the heels of a significant achievement for the cryptocurrency in terms of institutional adoption. BlackRock, the leading asset management company, has increased its Ethereum holdings under the BUIDL to over $1 billion. That highlights a notable milestone in the cryptocurrency’s institutional adoption. Reports indicate that BlackRock’s assets under management (AUM) in the BUIDL fund climbed to $1.145 billion as of March 23rd, a notable increase from around $990 million in the previous week. Ethereum constitutes the majority of the capital in BlackRock’s BUIDL fund, with additional allocations across other blockchain platforms like Avalanche, Polygon, Aptos, Arbitrum, and Optimism. Also, Ethereum continues to be the dominant base layer for the burgeoning sector of tokenized real-world assets (RWAs).

This significant support line traces back to the COVID-19 market crash, with notable price lows aligning with events like the LUNA collapse and the hack of the Bybit exchange. Drawing on historical patterns, analysts expect Ethereum to post a notable rebound from around this price level, considering two previous rallies when the flagship altcoin surged 1,400% and 270%, respectively.
