21Shares has taken a major step in bringing cryptocurrencies to mainstream investors by filing for a spot Dogecoin ETF. The SEC approval of this fund would allow investors to track the price of Dogecoin without directly purchasing the token. This announcement is part of 21Shares’ continued expansion into regulated crypto products, following a successful launch of Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs. A key factor driving this move is the partnership with House of Doge, which will support fund initiatives related to Dogecoin. 21Shares’ ETF filing comes at a pivotal moment for the cryptocurrency market: the Senate confirmed Paul Atkins as the new SEC chair, potentially impacting the timeline and outcome of pending crypto ETF applications. This filing follows delays by the SEC regarding various proposed crypto ETFs, including those targeting Litecoin, Solana, XRP, and Dogecoin. The recent US tariff pause also contributed to a rally in the cryptocurrency market, with Bitcoin witnessing gains after the announcement.
