Hong Kong's second spot Solana ETF, the Pando Solana ETF (ticker 2831.HK), is set to list on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange on 13 October 2026, according to a post from Solana's official X account on 12 October. A spot ETF is a fund that holds the actual asset and trades like a share, so investors get Solana exposure through a brokerage account rather than a crypto exchange. Solana also said global spot SOL ETFs hold about $1.9bn in net assets, with roughly $1.6bn in cumulative net inflows.

Solana is a blockchain network whose native token, SOL, is used to pay fees and secure the chain. The Pando Solana ETF is the second such product in the city, following an earlier spot Solana listing there. Odaily reported the same details on 12 October, citing Solana's announcement.

The city's second spot Solana ETF

The listing is confirmed by the issuer and the exchange, according to InvestIn.News reporting. Pando and HKEX, through HKSCC, have both confirmed the 13 October 2026 listing date. That matters because the original announcement came from Solana's own account, and a product launch normally needs the issuer and the exchange to sign off before shares can trade.

What it means for Hong Kong investors

Solana's post put global spot SOL ETF net assets at about $1.9bn and cumulative net inflows at about $1.6bn. Those figures are Solana's own and cover all spot Solana ETFs globally, not just the city's. The same post said the Pando Solana ETF would list on HKEX on 13 October.

Reactions on X were mixed. Credible (@crediblefin) said on X that Solana was "making moves". Crypto Warrior (@ScottLEOWarrior) said on X that Solana's institutional access keeps expanding and the city is becoming an increasingly important market to watch. P MAN (@damn_then) said on X that it was another ETF listing but SOL was barely reacting, and that the inflows sound decent until compared with Bitcoin's. Propfirm Investigator (@pf_investigator) said on X that the city is collecting Solana ETFs pretty quickly, and Seal The Deal (@SealTheDealcash) said on X that Solana keeps sealing the deals.

Mixed reactions on X

The wider market was calm on 12 October. Solana traded at $112.83, up 2.97% in 24 hours, while Bitcoin was at $83,982, up 1.26%, and ether at $2,560, up 2.15%, according to InvestIn.News market data at 04:53 UTC. Total crypto market value stood at $2.82 trillion, and the Crypto Fear & Greed Index read 69 of 100, in Greed territory.

What happens next is the listing itself on 13 October 2026. After that, the focus will be on whether the fund gathers assets and how it compares with the first Hong Kong spot Solana ETF. It isn't clear yet how much the Pando fund will hold at launch.

Questions readers ask

When does the Pando Solana ETF list in Hong Kong?

The Pando Solana ETF (ticker 2831.HK) is set to list on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange on 13 October 2026, according to Solana's official X account. Pando and HKEX, through HKSCC, have confirmed the date, according to InvestIn.News reporting. It is the city's second spot Solana ETF.

How big are global spot Solana ETFs?

Solana said global spot SOL ETFs hold about $1.9bn in net assets, with roughly $1.6bn in cumulative net inflows. Those figures are Solana's own and cover all spot Solana ETFs globally, not just the city's. Odaily reported the same details on 12 October, citing Solana's announcement.

What does a spot Solana ETF mean for investors?

A spot ETF holds the actual asset and trades like a share, so investors get Solana exposure through a brokerage account rather than a crypto exchange. For investors in the city, the Pando Solana ETF adds another way to buy Solana exposure inside a regulated market, alongside the first local spot Solana ETF.

Our view

Hong Kong's second spot Solana ETF is best understood as competitive product expansion in a deliberately crypto-friendly jurisdiction, validated by global demand for SOL exposure rather than by explosive local assets under management so far. The Pando Solana ETF (2831.HK) arrives on 13 October with global spot SOL ETFs holding about $1.9bn in net assets and about $1.6bn in cumulative net inflows, figures that speak to international appetite more than to the city's own base. The confirmation from Pando and HKEX, through HKSCC, gives the listing a firmer footing than the original social media post alone. In my view, the test is not the listing date but whether the fund gathers meaningful assets after launch, and whether a second local spot Solana ETF deepens the market or simply splits the same pool of demand.
