#SEC推迟多个现货ETF审批

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) recently announced a delay in the decision on the approval of spot ETFs for cryptocurrencies such as XRP, Solana (SOL), Litecoin (LTC), Cardano (ADA), and Dogecoin (DOGE), extending the final resolution date to May 2025. This move involves applications from institutions such as VanEck and Grayscale, sparking heated discussions in the market about regulatory attitudes and compliance issues.

The SEC stated that more time is needed to assess issues such as market manipulation risks, asset classification, and custody solutions, especially since XRP and SOL face additional scrutiny due to legal attribute disputes. Analysts point out that such delays are a “standard process” for the SEC when handling cryptocurrency ETFs; the approval of Bitcoin spot ETFs has also experienced multiple delays, ultimately being approved in 2024, providing a reference for the current case. Bloomberg analyst James Seyffart believes that despite the delays, the approval probabilities for ETFs like Litecoin and Dogecoin remain high (90% and 75%, respectively).

The market is under short-term pressure, with significant price declines for tokens like XRP and DOGE, but in the long term, if ETFs are approved, they will attract institutional funds and promote market maturity.
