即将在芝加哥商业交易所（CME）上推出Solana（Sol）期货

即将推出的美国衍生品交易所芝加哥商业交易所（CME）上的Solana（Sol）期货，这表明很快就会发布美国第一批美国SOL交易所资金（ETF）列表

The upcoming launch of Solana (SOL) futures on the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME) signals that the first U.S. SOL exchange-traded funds (ETFs) listings are coming soon.

即将推出的Solana（Sol）期货在芝加哥商业交易所（CME）上发起的信号表明，美国第一批美国SOL交易所交易资金（ETF）列表即将推出。

According to Chris Chung, founder of Solana-based swap platform Titan, the CME will begin offering futures contracts for SOL on March 17. They will be among the first regulated Solana futures to hit the U.S. market after Coinbase launched its own futures in February.

根据Solana Swap Platform Titan的创始人Chris Chung的说法，CME将于3月17日开始为SOL提供期货合约。在Coinbase在2月推出自己的期货之后，它们将成为第一个受到美国市场的监管索拉纳期货之一。

The listing “paves the way for the eventual approval of SOL ETFs,” Chung told Cointelegraph.

Chung告诉Cointelegraph，上市“为最终批准SOL ETF铺平了道路。

He added that he expects the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission to approve asset managers VanEck and Canary Capital’s proposed spot Solana ETFs as soon as May.

他补充说，他预计美国证券交易委员会将在5月批准资产经理Vaneck和Canary Capital的拟议现场Solana ETF。

The existence of regulated Solana futures “signals to regulators that Solana is maturing as an asset, making it easier for them to greenlight additional financial products of similar risk and type.”

受监管的索拉纳期货的存在“向监管机构发出信号，表明索拉纳正在成为一种资产，使他们更容易绿灯，具有类似风险和类型的其他金融产品。”

Futures contracts are standardized agreements to buy or sell an underlying asset at a future date. They play a crucial supporting role for spot cryptocurrency ETFs because regulated futures markets provide a stable benchmark for measuring a digital asset’s performance.

期货合约是标准化协议，以在将来的日期购买或出售基础资产。他们在现货加密货币ETF中起着至关重要的辅助作用，因为受管制的期货市场为测量数字资产的绩效提供了稳定的基准。

CME already lists futures contracts for Bitcoin (BTC) and Ether (ETH). U.S. regulators approved ETFs for both of those cryptocurrencies last year.

CME已经列出了比特币（BTC）和Ether（ETH）的期货合约。去年，美国监管机构批准了这两种加密货币的ETF。

The prospect of U.S. regulators approving spot Bitcoin ETFs this year has also reportedly led some institutions to prepare to short Bitcoin futures.

据报道，美国监管机构批准现货比特币ETF的前景也导致一些机构准备短暂的比特币期货。

Solana futures and ETFs will additionally help expand Solana’s growth story beyond memecoins, which were central to the blockchain network’s success in 2024.

Solana Futures和ETF将帮助将Solana的增长故事扩大到Memecoins之外，这是区块链网络在2024年成功的核心。

These products “will bring more serious, sticky capital and pave the way for the development of other real-world use cases, such as payments and remittances,” according to Chung.

Chung说，这些产品“将带来更严重，更粘的资本，并为开发其他现实世界中的用例（例如付款和汇款）铺平道路。”

Those use cases are “[f]ar more boring than memecoins, perhaps, but a reliable source of long-term revenue that will buoy Solana’s price in the next bear market.”

这些用例也许是“ f息息相关，也许比纪念物更无聊，但是长期收入的可靠来源，它将在下一个熊市中为索拉纳（Solana）的价格浮出水面。”

Memecoin trading, largely tied to the popular Pump.fun platform, comprises roughly 80% of the Solana blockchain network’s revenues, according to asset manager VanEck.

根据资产经理Vaneck的说法，Memecoin交易主要与流行的Pump.Fun平台有关，占SOLANA区块链网络收入的约80％。

However, activity on the Solana network declined in February after a series of memecoin-related scandals soured sentiment among retail traders.

然而，在零售商人中发生了一系列与模因有关的丑闻酸味的情绪之后，索拉纳网络上的活动在2月下降。

Still, cryptocurrency trading volumes on Solana continue to rival those of the entire Ethereum ecosystem, including its layer-2 scaling chains, VanEck said on March 6.

Vaneck在3月6日表示，尽管如此，Solana上的加密货币交易仍在与整个以太坊生态系统中的贸易量相匹配，包括其2层扩展链。

Chung said he expects Solana ETFs to take off among retail investors, partly because of the challenges facing rival smart contract platform Ethereum.

Chung说，他希望Solana ETF在散户投资者中脱颖而出，部分原因是竞争对手Smart Contract Platform Ethereum面临的挑战。

Solana’s native SOL token has performed about twice as well as Ether since early 2024, according to TradingView.

根据TradingView的数据，Solana的本地Sol代币自2024年初以来的表现和以太的表现大约两次。

Ethereum’s spot price has struggled since March 2024, when the network’s Dencun upgrade cut transaction fees by approximately 95%.

自2024年3月以来，以太坊的现货价格一直在挣扎，当时该网络的Dencun升级削减交易费用约为95％。

“With the extremely weak price action we’re seeing in ETH, Solana is now the only option for retail investors wanting to get exposure to crypto beyond Bitcoin, but not willing to go full degen,” Chung said.

Chung说：“由于我们在ETH中看到的价格极为薄弱，Solana现在是想要获得比特币超越比特币的加密货币的散户投资者的唯一选择，但不愿意全力以赴。”

Bloomberg Intelligence has set the odds of the SEC approving spot Solana and Litecoin ETFs at 70%.

彭博情报局将SEC批准Sot Solana和Litecoin ETF的几率定为70％。
