Grayscale Solana Staking ETF, through its sponsor Grayscale Investments Sponsors, LLC and CSC Delaware Trust Company as trustee, entered into a Third Amended and Restated Declaration of Trust and Trust Agreement effective August 6, 2026, replacing the prior trust agreement and its amendments.
The revised agreement requires the trust to commence regular distributions of the net cash proceeds of staking rewards to shareholders by reducing Staking Consideration to cash no less often than quarterly and promptly distributing the cash, net of trust expenses not assumed by the sponsor, including a portion paid to the sponsor for facilitating staking arrangements. The trust currently intends to distribute these net cash proceeds on a monthly, but at least quarterly, basis. Distribution amounts will depend on Staking Consideration actually received and cannot be predicted, and shareholders are advised to consult tax advisors. The trust plans to file a prospectus supplement under Rule 424(b)(3) to update related disclosure.
Grayscale Solana Staking ETF plans to enter a Third Amended and Restated Declaration of Trust and Trust Agreement on or around August 7, 2026. The amendment would require the Trust to convert staking rewards (Staking Consideration) to cash no less often than quarterly and promptly distribute net cash, after Trust expenses and a portion paid to the Sponsor for facilitating staking, to shareholders. It also includes conforming changes to support the staking program and mandatory distribution framework. The Sponsor views the change as not materially adverse and as necessary or desirable to align with IRS Revenue Procedure 2025-31 so the Trust can continue to be treated as a grantor trust, and is providing 20 days prior notice.
Supplemental tax and risk disclosures emphasize that U.S. tax treatment of digital assets and staking remains uncertain. If the IRS rejects the grantor trust position, the Trust could be taxed as a partnership or a corporation; corporate status could trigger 21% entity-level U.S. federal income tax and 30% withholding on certain distributions to non-U.S. holders, potentially reducing after-tax returns and widening divergence between NAV and the value of SOL. U.S. and non-U.S. investors, including tax-exempt holders, may recognize taxable income from staking rewards, forks or airdrops and, in some situations, could incur tax liabilities without matching cash flows, while non-U.S. holders also face possible 30% withholding on some U.S.-source income and additional FATCA-related withholding.
Grayscale Solana Staking ETF reported a leadership change at its sponsor, Grayscale Investments Sponsors, LLC. Effective July 2, 2026, Kathryn Masci and Daniel Plourde, both Senior Vice Presidents of Finance, were appointed interim Co-Chief Financial Officers of the sponsor.
Masci was also appointed to the sponsor’s Board of Managers and will serve as the ETF’s Principal Financial and Accounting Officer. They succeed Edward McGee, who is stepping down after about seven years as Chief Financial Officer for personal reasons, with no disagreement related to the company’s operations, policies, or practices noted.
Grayscale Solana Staking ETF is cutting key fees after entering Amendment No. 3 to its Trust Agreement. Effective June 25, 2026, the annual Sponsor’s Fee is reduced from 0.35% to 0.19% of the aggregate value of the Trust’s assets.
The Sponsor has also lowered the Sponsor’s Staking Fee from 23% to 7% of gross Staking Consideration generated under its staking arrangements. The Trust plans to file a prospectus supplement reflecting these lower fees, which should make the ETF structurally cheaper for investors.
Grayscale Solana Staking ETF entered into amendments to its Authorized Participant Agreement with Jane Street Capital, LLC, allowing Jane Street to conduct creations and redemptions of shares in-kind. These are the transactions through which large blocks of ETF shares are issued or retired.
The sponsor, Grayscale Investments Sponsors, LLC, also notes it may engage additional Authorized Participants over time. Those future participants may be able to conduct creations and redemptions in-kind, in cash, or using a combination of both methods.
Grayscale Solana Staking ETF reported that CoinDesk Indices, Inc., the Index Provider for the fund, has updated the trading platforms used to calculate its underlying CoinDesk Solana Benchmark Rate.
Effective January 20, 2026, the Index Provider added Binance and Gate for SOL-USDC trading pairs and HashKey for the SOL-USD trading pair, after those venues met its inclusion conditions. At the same time, it removed Bitfinex’s SOL-USD trading pair because that platform no longer met those conditions in a scheduled monthly review.
Following these changes, the Index now uses several exchanges for SOL-USD pairs, including Bitstamp by Robinhood, Bullish, Crypto.com, Gemini, HashKey, Kraken, LMAX Digital, and OKX, and for SOL-USDC pairs, including Binance, Bitstamp, Bullish, Bybit, Gate, Kraken, and OKX. The Index Provider states it may further adjust venues or methodology over time.
Grayscale Solana Staking ETF reported that its name is being changed from “Grayscale Solana Trust ETF” to “Grayscale Solana Staking ETF.” The sponsor, Grayscale Investments Sponsors, LLC, filed a Certificate of Amendment to the Certificate of Trust in Delaware and entered into an additional amendment to the Declaration of Trust and Trust Agreement to implement this change, both effective at 12:01 a.m. New York City time on January 5, 2026.
Shares are expected to continue trading on NYSE Arca under the ticker symbol GSOL. Existing stock certificates remain valid and do not need to be exchanged, so the change is primarily a rebranding rather than a change to how the shares trade.

Grayscale Solana Trust ETF filed an update explaining how it uses cashtags and third-party content on X (formerly Twitter). The sponsor, Grayscale Investments Sponsors, LLC, notes that when it uses a ticker symbol with a “$” on X, the platform automatically links that cashtag to pages showing market data, news, and other information created by third parties.
Grayscale emphasizes that it does not control, endorse, or take responsibility for any information displayed on those X-generated pages or on third-party sites accessed through them. It explains that this material is not authorized or verified by Grayscale and may differ from its official disclosures. Investors are directed to rely on Grayscale’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission for authoritative and up-to-date information about the trust and its products.

Effective November 18, 2025, the index provider removed the itBit SOL-U.S. Dollar trading pair from the index after itBit failed to meet the provider’s conditions for inclusion and did not add any new platforms in its scheduled monthly review.
The index for SOL-USD trading pairs now uses Bitfinex, Bitstamp by Robinhood, Bullish, Crypto.com, Gemini, Kraken, LMAX Digital, and OKX. For SOL-U.S. Dollar Coin (USDC) trading pairs, it uses Bitstamp, Bullish, Bybit, Kraken, and OKX. The index provider states it may change trading venues or index calculation methods at any time, including during scheduled monthly reviews.
