#AltcoinETFsPostponed

The US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has delayed its decision on several altcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs), including those for XRP, Solana, Litecoin, and Dogecoin. The delays affect various applications, with new deadlines set for:

- *XRP ETF*: Franklin Templeton's spot XRP ETF decision delayed to May 22, 2025, with Bloomberg analysts estimating a 65% chance of approval and Polymarket placing the odds at 72%. XRP ETF approval odds have recently hit 85% after SEC leadership changes.

- *Dogecoin ETF*: Bitwise's Dogecoin ETF pushed to June 15, 2025.

- *Solana and Litecoin ETFs*: Some analysts predict a 90% chance of approval for these ETFs.

The SEC's delay doesn't necessarily reduce the likelihood of approval, as the final deadlines extend until October 2025.
