The addition of Solana aligns with Fidelity’s broader strategy of expanding access to digital assets for its brokerage clients. According to official filings, Fidelity Wise Origin Bitcoin Fund (FBTC:CBOE) currently holds 205,888.4 BTC, valued at approximately $22.77 billion, representing 0.98% of Bitcoin’s total 21 million supply.

Solana ETFs Get Nod in Hong Kong
In a further show of institutional momentum, Hong Kong’s Securities and Futures Commission (SFC) recently approved the first Solana spot ETF, issued by ChinaAMC. The ETF, scheduled to begin trading on October 27, positions Hong Kong ahead of the US in providing regulated institutional access to Solana exposure.
The development has sent bullish signals across the market, with prediction markets now pricing Solana ETF approval odds in the US at 99%.

Market trends reflected positive reaction as Solana increased 6% intraday on Thursday, climbing to $192 from an opening price just below $180. The dual catalysts of Fidelity’s listing and SOL ETF approval in Hong Kong saw Solana emerge as the best performer among the top 10 ranked cryptocurrencies at the time of writing.
Anticipated SOL demand from Fidelity’s brokerage clients has boosted speculative trading on early-stage crypto projects like Pepe Node (PEPENODE).
Pepe Node allows users to own virtual meme coin mining rigs, combine nodes for higher yields, and earn bonus rewards from network participation.
