BNB Staking ETF on the Horizon as Rex-Osprey Submits Listing Filing

REX Shares and Osprey Funds filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to launch the REX-Osprey BNB + Staking ETF, a groundbreaking move for cryptocurrency investment. This ETF aims to track BNB’s price performance while generating staking rewards, offering investors a regulated way to tap into the Binance ecosystem’s growth. The filing, submitted under the Investment Company Act of 1940, could see the ETF trading on the Cboe BZX Exchange by November 9, 2025, pending SEC approval.

Key Filing Details
The ETF will invest at least 80% of its assets in BNB and related products, with at least 40% allocated to other ETFs or ETPs tracking BNB, such as the 21Shares Binance BNB ETP. Staking will occur through a Cayman Islands subsidiary, with custody handled by Anchorage Digital. The fund aims to stake most BNB holdings, offering 3-5% annualized yields via dividends, despite a seven-day unbonding period.

Market Implications
This ETF enhances accessibility, allowing retail and institutional investors to earn BNB staking rewards without managing wallets or validators. It could drive capital into the BNB Chain, boosting liquidity and stability. The filing follows REX-Osprey’s successful Solana + Staking ETF, which amassed $161.7 million in two months, signaling strong investor interest in altcoin ETFs.

Looking Forward
Approval could accelerate mainstream crypto adoption, bridging traditional finance and DeFi. With BNB’s market cap exceeding $120 billion and institutional interest surging, this ETF may reshape crypto investment landscapes.

REX-Osprey’s BNB Staking ETF filing is a pivotal step toward regulated crypto investment, offering simplified access to staking rewards and reinforcing BNB’s growing financial relevance.
