#AltcoinETFsPostponed AltcoinETFsPostponed The US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has postponed its decision on several altcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs), including those for XRP, Solana, Litecoin, and Dogecoin. This delay affects multiple filings from firms like Canary Capital, Bitwise, 21Shares, and VanEck.
*Affected ETFs:*
- *XRP ETFs*: Filed by Canary Capital, Bitwise, and 21Shares
- *Solana ETFs*: Filed by 21Shares, Canary, and VanEck
- *Litecoin ETFs*: Filed by Canary
- *Dogecoin ETFs*: Filed by Bitwise and 21Shares
*New Deadlines:*
- *June 17, 2025*: New deadline for Franklin Templeton's spot XRP ETF and Bitwise's Dogecoin ETF
- *October 18, 2025*: Potential final decision date for other crypto ETFs, based on standard procedural deadlines
*Reasons for Delay:*
The SEC cited the need for a longer review period to consider the proposed ETFs and address concerns. Analysts believe the delays are standard procedure and don't necessarily indicate a rejection. The SEC is reviewing around 70 crypto ETF proposals, many involving altcoins.¹ ²
