21Shares Advances Dogecoin ETF Proposal, Moving Forward With Nasdaq Listing

21Shares has taken its bid for a spot Dogecoin exchange-traded fund (ETF) to the next level by submitting a 19b-4 proposal to the SEC. This comes as Nasdaq officially filed the listing application, marking a crucial step towards regulatory approval. The move is bolstered by increased optimism for altcoin ETF approvals under the leadership of new SEC Chair Paul Atkins, a known crypto advocate who replaced his predecessor with a pro-crypto stance.
