#AltcoinETFsPostponed

The US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has postponed decisions on several altcoin-based exchange-traded funds (ETFs), including those for XRP and Dogecoin. The SEC extended the review period for Franklin Templeton's spot XRP ETF to June 17, 2025, and similarly delayed the decision on Bitwise's Dogecoin ETF. Analysts view these delays as standard procedure, drawing parallels to previous delays for Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs before their approvals. Approximately 70 crypto ETF applications are pending, with experts cautioning that investor demand for altcoin ETFs may be limited compared to flagship cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Ethereum.
