| 3 months | +54.5% | +53.4% | +1.1 pts |

| Since it listed | −18.6% | −21.7% | +3.1 pts |
In plain words
Over the time since it listed to Sep 11, 2026, Solana moved −21.7% and VSOL returned −18.6%. That leaves it 3.1 percentage points ahead. That difference is the fee, the custody cost, the friction of creating and redeeming shares in blocks, and whatever the market paid for the shares rather than for the coin, all of it together. It is the only figure on this page the sponsor does not publish itself. VSOL charges 0.30% a year and still finished 3.1% ahead of Solana, which a fee cannot do on its own. Solana is a proof of stake chain, so a fund holding it can stake. VSOL’s own filings say it does (10-Q, Aug 13, 2026). What the prices show is that it finished 3.1% ahead of Solana’s own price over the same days, against +2.9% for the other 8 funds holding Solana. After a fee, an in-kind ETP ahead of the asset it holds got there by staking. A spot trust is not a registered investment company. It files a 10-K rather than an N-PORT, and its holding is one line: the Solana it custodies.

Questions people ask
- Does VSOL track Solana?
- Over the time since it listed to Sep 11, 2026 it returned −18.6% against Solana’s −21.7%, which leaves it 3.1 percentage points ahead. That difference carries the fee, the custody cost and the market’s pricing of the shares, and ETFIQ computes it from the fund’s own closes and the coin’s own closes over the same two dates.
- Does VSOL stake?
- Solana is a proof of stake chain, so staking is possible. Whether this fund stakes, and what the sponsor keeps of it, is a term in its own filings and is read from those rather than assumed.
- What is VSOL?
- VanEck Solana ETF, a spot Solana trust sponsored by VanEck, listed Nov 17, 2025. It holds the coin through a custodian rather than futures on it or shares in companies that own it.
The words on this page
- Tracking difference
- The fund’s total return minus the coin’s over exactly the same days, in percentage points. The fee, the custody cost, the creation and redemption friction and whatever the market paid for the shares, all of it, in one number.
- Spot
- The fund holds the coin itself, through a custodian, rather than futures on it or shares in companies that own it. Only spot funds are on this desk; the others are measured where they belong.
- Sponsor
- Who runs the trust. A spot crypto ETF is a 1933 Act trust rather than a registered investment company, so it has a sponsor rather than an adviser, and files a 10-K rather than an N-PORT.
- Thinly quoted
- A fund whose price sat unchanged on more than one trading day in twenty. Its quoted return is what somebody paid on the days anyone traded, which is not the same thing as what the fund did, so ETFIQ shows it and does not rank it against funds that trade.
- Staking
- Only proof of stake coins can be staked, so it exists for ether and Solana funds and cannot exist for a bitcoin one. Where a fund stakes, the yield and the sponsor’s share of it are terms in its own filings.
