    Cointelegraph.com - 13:20 Oct 29, 2025
    Bitwise’s Hunter Horsley was stung by criticism from Ethereum Maxis about the firm’s support of Solana, as ETH helped inspire Bitwise in 2016 In the lead-up to this weeks surprise listing of its Solana Staking ETF on the New York Stock Exchange, Bitwise CEO Hunter Horsley caused a stir by telling Cointelegraph that Solanas shorter validator exit queue gave it the edge over Ethereum in the staking ETF race. Bitwise chief investment officer Matt Houghan went much further on a podcast, praising Solanas speed, throughput and finality as extraordinarily attractive. He labelled it the new Wall Street. The glowing endorsements were controversial among Ethereum fans, some of who seemed to believe Bitwise was betraying ETHs cypherpunk values by championing other projects. Horsley was stung by the criticisms, not least because Ethereum was part of the inspiration for creating Bitwise in the first place. He replied he felt terrible to see these posts.

Earlier, when the second round of talks had begun between the two sides on Oct 25, Asif had warned that failure to reach an agreement would mean “open war”.
