▌The US SEC questions the legality of the Ethereum and Solana pledged ETFs submitted by REX
The US SEC questioned the Ethereum and Solana pledged ETFs launched by REX Shares and Osprey Funds, believing that they may not meet the definitions of investment companies and ETFs in the Federal Securities Act.
The US SEC stated that these funds may have "incorrectly submitted registration statements" and that "the disclosure in the registration statements about the identities of these funds as investment companies may be misleading."
Greg Collett, general counsel of REX Financial, said: "We think we can satisfy the SEC about the investment company's issues, and we don't plan to launch the fund until we do that."
