#AltcoinETFsPostponed
he 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. The outcome depends on the SEC's next move and regulatory decisions ¹ ².
