#AltcoinETFsPostponed
Starting from April 30, 2025, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) postponed decisions on multiple applications for index funds (ETFs) based on altcoins, including those for XRP, Dogecoin (DOGE), Solana (SOL), Litecoin (LTC), Cardano (ADA), and Polkadot (DOT). The SEC cited the need for more time to fully assess these proposals. 
Despite these delays, analysts remain optimistic about the eventual approval of altcoin ETFs in 2025. Bloomberg's ETF analyst, James Seyffart, noted that such postponements are standard procedure and that the final deadlines for decisions extend until October.
