The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has extended its review periods for proposed XRP and Dogecoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs), aligning with typical timelines and showing no indication of denial. This positive development comes alongside the recent CME listing of XRP futures, which is expected to strengthen both assets’ chances for ETF approval. Industry analysis suggests an 80% likelihood of XRP ETF approval by year-end, as reflected in Polymarket data. The market remains optimistic about the potential for approvals despite regulatory delays. Additionally, the CME listing serves as a sign of institutional acceptance and increased market maturity for these assets. Overall, the industry appears poised for continued growth with further developments in this space.
