Solana ETF News Shows Disappointing Outcome: Unilabs & SUI Set to Lead Utility Coins in 2025

As the Solana ETF delay news has disappointed investors, the focus has shifted to two rising stars in the DeFi space: SUI Blockchain and Unilabs (UNIL).

The Solana price has dropped below the $180 mark after the news of the Solana ETF delay came out. However, as the capital is rotating to utility coins, SOL investors are swiftly diversifying to potential coins.

SUI Blockchain has surged to a 6-month high of $4.44, while Unilabs has emerged as the best presale contender of 2025 with its first-ever AI investment management platform. Currently, it is presale and has raised a staggering $7.2 million in a few weeks of launch.

SEC Delays Decision on Grayscale Solana ETFs

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has delayed its decision on whether to approve the Grayscale Solana ETF, according to filings released on Monday. The agency now has up to eight more weeks to decide on Grayscale’s request to turn its Solana Trust into a Solana ETF.

At the same time, Invesco and Galaxy Digital have filed a new application for their own Solana ETF. They aim to list the fund on the Cboe BZX Exchange using Rule 14.11(e)(4), the same process used for other digital asset-based ETFs.

Solana has pulled back nearly 13% from the recent highs and is taking support from the 20-day simple moving average (SMA), indicating that the bulls are fiercely defending the level. At the press time, it is trading at $180 with 2% drop in the last 24 hours and a 24% drop in trading volumes.

SUI Blockchain: Will It Recover From The Pullback?

The Sui Blockchain price has been on a correction, dropping 15% from the recent swing high. This pullback came as a profit-taking of the recent rally rather than the start of a new bear trend. According to Coinmarketcap data, the Sui Blockchain is currently trading at $3.80 with a drop of 5% in the last seven days. SUI has retraced back down and is currently trying to stabilize above the $3.60 crucial support level.

Sui Blockchain’s market sentiments are currently bullish, as its Total Value Locked (TVL) has reached a record level of $2.28B. At the same time, Coinglass data shows that the Open Interest (OI) has spiked to $2.66, signaling rising investor demand and strong DeFi growth.

Analysts predict that these developments will affect the SUI price. Furthermore, it has strong resistance levels at $4.50 and $5. If these trends persist and SUI Blockchain clears this level, it may explore higher levels above its previous all-time high.

Unilabs Emerges as the 2025 Market’s Top Utility Coin

While Solana ETF still awaits approval, another utility altcoin, Unilabs (UNIL) , has emerged at the top of the market. This rapid ascent is backed by its advanced AI technology and a strong surge in demand for its undervalued presale phase.

With over $7.2 million raised and 1,208 million tokens sold, this AI-focused token is becoming a top contender for expert investors who are seeking real utility.

Unilabs is the world’s first fully AI-backed DeFi asset manager. As of Q3 2025, it has over $30 million in AUM (assets under management) and is challenging major conventional asset management platforms with its superior results and institutional-grade investment strategies.

The biggest highlight of the platform is its EASS tech, Unilabs’ AI engine. The platform scans thousands of projects in real time, checking on-chain, tokenomics, team quality, utility, and community support, and provides investors with high-quality early-stage DeFi opportunities.

With the token price expected to hit $0.0097 in the next stage, savvy investors have been scooping up tokens at a discounted price of $0.0085 in the current stage.

Final Thoughts

Solana ETF hype has slowed down, and it is bringing new attention to Unilabs and SUI Blockchain. SUI’s growth in TVL and OI momentum puts it at the front of the DeFi revival. But Unilabs is a standout of the season with its revolutionary AI asset management platform.  As more investors seek utility tokens, UNIL and SUI are seeing surging demand.
