#AltcoinETFsPostponed

The US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has postponed decisions on several altcoin ETFs, including ¹ ²:

- *Franklin Templeton's XRP ETF*: The SEC extended the review period to June 17, 2025, citing the need for additional time to evaluate the proposed rule change and address regulatory issues.

- *Bitwise's Dogecoin ETF*: The SEC delayed its decision, following a pattern seen with previous applications for Bitcoin and Ethereum spot ETFs.

- *Other Altcoin ETFs*: The SEC has received approximately 70 crypto ETF filings, including proposals for ETFs holding XRP, Solana, Litecoin, Dogecoin, and other tokens.

These delays reflect the SEC's cautious approach to approving investment products for assets beyond Bitcoin and Ethereum. Analysts suggest that these extensions are standard procedure and don't necessarily signal rejection ¹.
