The REX-Osprey SOL + Staking ETF, SSK, saw investors yank $3.2 million in net assets on January 07, 2026, marking a meaningful outflow for the Solana-focused product. The latest redemption represents roughly 1.88% of the fund’s $170.54 million in assets under management (AUM), a notable shift for a vehicle marketed around combining SOL exposure with staking yields.
The fund flow reversal comes as the related asset, SOL-USD, trades at $136.38 after a bruising three-month stretch, during which the token has dropped about 27.65%. Short-term trading signals remain cautious, with a 1-day technical stance currently at Hold, underscoring a market that is hesitant to call a bottom but not yet ready to capitulate further.
For SSK, the outflows suggest that recent volatility and drawdowns in Solana are starting to outweigh the appeal of staking-enhanced returns, at least among more tactical ETF investors. While the withdrawal is still modest relative to total AUM, it may indicate growing sensitivity to downside risk in single-chain thematic products, especially after an extended pullback in the underlying token. How quickly flows stabilize—or reverse—will likely depend on whether SOL can reassert upward momentum and justify the added risk of concentrated exposure.
