#AltcoinETFsPostponed The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has delayed decisions on several altcoin spot ETFs, including those for Solana (SOL), XRP, Dogecoin (DOGE), Hedera (HBAR), Polkadot (DOT), Litecoin (LTC), and Cardano (ADA), as well as Ethereum (ETH) staking proposals. These delays, announced on April 30, 2025, and earlier in March and April, affect filings from firms like Franklin Templeton, Grayscale, Bitwise, Canary Capital, 21Shares, and VanEck. New deadlines are set for June 10–11 and May 29 for some proposals.Bloomberg ETF analysts James Seyffart and Eric Balchunas describe the delays as “standard procedure,” citing the SEC’s need for more review time and the unconfirmed status of new SEC chair Paul Atkins. Despite the postponements, approval odds remain high, with Litecoin at 90%, Dogecoin at 75%, Solana at 70%, and XRP at 65% for 2025. Analysts note a crypto-friendly U.S. administration and Trump’s influence could boost prospects, though investor demand for altcoin ETFs may be weaker than for Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs.Posts on X reflect similar sentiment, noting delays but optimism for eventual approvals. However, the SEC’s cautious approach emphasizes investor protection, market stability, and concerns like volatility and custody security.
