Frenesi no Mercado: Investidores Dobram Apostas em ETFs de Solana e Meme Coins em 2025
O mercado cripto está vivendo mais um capítulo de euforia—e desta vez, Solana e meme coins roubam a cena.
ETFs de Solana viram o novo 'must-have' das carteiras institucionais, enquanto ativos especulativos como meme coins continuam a sugar liquidez como um buraco negro financeiro. A pergunta que fica: é inovação ou FOMO disfarçado de estratégia?
Wall Street parece ter descoberto que 'blockchain' rima com 'ganhos'—pelo menos até a próxima correção do mercado. Enquanto isso, os degens festejam.

Nansen data further showed that the number of active addresses on Solana jumped 5.3 percent to 24.4 million, and fees generated climbed 44 percent, reaching $7.68 million. Over the past 30 days, the network handled more than 2.1 billion transactions.
Investors show a growing appetite for Solana ETFs and meme coins
US-listed Solana ETFs have quietly brought $78 million in the last month, underlining growing demand for altcoin-based funds even as Bitcoin remains the market leader.
The REX-Osprey SOL + Staking ETF (SSK), which began trading on July 2, has amassed more than $41 million in assets already, based on Bloomberg Intelligence data.
Volatility Shares’ leveraged Solana ETF (SOLT) has gathered $69 million so far this year, while its standard Solana ETF (SOLZ) has held $23 million.
These inflows arrive as several fund managers prepare for what they hope will be the next big ETF approval in the US. Although the SEC has not yet green-lit such an offering, many in the industry are growing hopeful it could win approval soon.
According to CoinGecko data, meme tokens on Solana have also seen a pump alongside the broader rally. PENGU by Pudgy Penguins and Bonk are the two high-market-cap meme coins that recorded the highest climb this week.

PENGU is 48.2% and Bonk has spiked 33.9% over the last 7 days, according to present data by CoinGecko. Their current market caps stand at $1,918,146,113 and $1,465,716,245, respectively.
Goatseus Maximus rose 27.0%, while Peanut the Squirrel and Popcat gained 21.7% and 21.2% respectively.
Dogwifhat added 13.6% while the Official Trump coin climbed to 11.8%. Smaller advances came from Fartcoin (4.5%), dog (Bitcoin) (7.1%), and aura (6.8%). Among the major meme tokens, only Useless Coin and Melania Meme slipped, down 3.7% and 0.1%.
In the last 24 hours, Bonk saw about $1.46 billion in trading volume, Pudgy Penguins $863 million, and Official Trump $520 million, highlighting strong trading interest alongside Solana’s gains.
Reflecting the growing interest in Sol-based meme coins, Pump.fun, a Solana-based meme coin launchpad that allows users to create speculative meme coins, raised $600 million in just 12 minutes during its ICO, making it the largest ICO on record.
In an X post on July 9th, Pump. Fun said it would sell 150 billion coins at a price of $0.004 per token. Prior to the public sale, the platform had sold 180 billion coins to private investors at that same price.
