When Will The SEC Approve the Dogecoin ETF Application?
The SEC has repeatedly delayed decisions on several DOGE ETF applications, saying it requires more time to review thoroughly.
In June, the Commission said, “Institution of proceedings does not indicate that the Commission has reached any conclusions with respect to any of the issues involved.”
“Rather, the Commission seeks and encourages interested persons to provide comments on the proposed rule change,” it added.
The SEC is seeking public comments and utilizing its period of review for 240 days before approving. Now, the final decision for most DOGE ETF applications is likely to be released between October 2025 to January 2026.
