Galaxy Digital follows in Grayscale’s footsteps and announced the launch of their Solana Funds that will track the performance of the Bloomberg Galaxy Solana Index.
First Grayscale Now Galaxy Digital
Galaxy Digital has announced the launch of its Solana Fund on Dec. 16 which will track the newly launched Bloomberg Galaxy Solana Index (Ticker: SOL).
The fund will be a passively managed fund that is designed to provide institutional investors access to returns based on the performance of the SOL token through investment vehicles that don’t involve the “complexities” of investing in digital assets directly. The Bloomberg Galaxy SOL Index is a digital asset benchmark that is owned and administered by Bloomberg Index Services Limited and is co-branded in collaboration with Galaxy Fund Management.
“The crypto economy is on an exciting growth trajectory, and we’re meeting the opportunity by thoughtfully expanding our product suite to provide access to the institutional-grade portion of the digital asset class. Solana has a compelling use case, a strong technological foundation, and is of increasing interest to crypto investors,” stated Steve Kurz, Global Head of Asset Management at Galaxy Digital, in the official press release.
“We’re consistently looking for opportunities in the ever-evolving crypto markets, and it’s clear that Solana is growing quickly in the space. This new index is another opportunity to meet the actively engaged institutional market, and we’re excited to continue working closely with an industry leader like Galaxy as we expand our crypto capabilities and offerings,” added Alan Campbell, Global Head of Product for Bloomberg’s Multi-Asset Index business.
