In the ever-evolving narrative of cryptocurrency markets, Solana has emerged as a beacon of bullish momentum, surging ahead of market giants Bitcoin and Ethereum

Solana (CRYPTO: SOL) price surged 7% on Wednesday, outperforming the gains in Bitcoin and Ethereum. The "triple-digit" move in the crypto space comes ahead of the launch of the first-ever Solana futures exchange-traded fund (ETF) products.
What Happened: Solana's price rose by about $44 to $670.29, marking its largest triple-digit price gain this year. The world's 12th largest cryptocurrency is now up about 87% year-to-date.
The new "+2X" and "+3X" daily futures ETFs from Florida-based Volatility Shares LLC, which is making its foray into the ETF market, will be tracking the price movements of Solana futures. The two ETFs - the Volatility Shares Solana ETF (NYSE: SOLZ) and the Volatility Shares 2X Solana ETF (NYSE: SOLT) - are set to launch on Thursday, according to a recent SEC filing.
The registration statement for the ETFs mentions that the funds will typically enter into cash-settled Solana Futures Contracts to obtain exposure to the cryptocurrency. Shares of the ETFs will be listed on the Nasdaq Stock Exchange.
