Odaily Planet Daily News: Matthew Sigel, head of digital asset research at VanEck, said that the chances of VanEck applying to issue a spot Solana ETF depend largely on the results of the 20204 presidential election and whether Gary Gensler continues to serve as chairman of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. "It is very likely that cryptocurrency voters will play an important role in this election. We have seen changes in the regulatory environment at the level of elected officials. Several Democrats voted in favor of legislation that supports cryptocurrency." Sigel agreed with SEC Chairman Gary Gensler's recent comments that "Ethereum applications are progressing well," adding, "This may be the only time in three years that I agree with Gary Gensler."
