AI brief of an SEC Form 8-K · 21Shares Solana Staking ETF (TSOL)

21Shares Solana Staking ETF switches NAV benchmark to FTSE Solana Index from Aug. 27

Neutral Impact 3 of 5 product/contract Written later

The fund's sponsor signed a licensing agreement with FTSE International for the FTSE Solana Index, which will replace the CME CF Solana-Dollar Reference Rate - New York Variant for valuing shares starting August 27, 2026. The filing also shows a fund name change, a restated trust agreement, and a change to quarterly-or-less frequent payment of the sponsor fee, which the filing says are not expected to materially affect holders' rights.

Key points

  • FTSE Solana Index replaces the CME CF benchmark for net asset value starting August 27, 2026, after the CF Benchmarks license terminates August 31, 2026
  • Licensing agreement dated August 20, 2026 has an expected one-year initial term with automatic one-year renewals
  • Sponsor fee payment changed from weekly in arrears to at least quarterly in arrears, payable in SOL
  • Trust renamed from 21Shares Solana ETF to 21Shares Solana Staking ETF on August 25, 2026
