On April 30, 2025, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) announced the postponement of its decisions regarding several applications for cryptocurrency exchange-traded funds (ETFs) linked to alternative coins, including Solana (SOL), Ripple (XRP), Litecoin (LTC), and Dogecoin (DOGE).

Possible reasons for the postponement

Ongoing investigations: Some currencies, such as Solana, are facing additional regulatory scrutiny due to concerns about being classified as unregistered securities.

Political and regulatory pressures: The SEC seeks more time to assess the potential impacts of these funds on the market, especially amid political and administrative changes.

Future outlook

Despite these postponements, some analysts remain optimistic about the possibility of approving these funds later in 2025, especially with increasing institutional interest in cryptocurrencies.
