#AltcoinETFsPostponed

The US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has delayed its decision on several altcoin ETFs, including those for XRP, Solana, Litecoin, and Dogecoin. The delays affect various applications, with new deadlines set for May 22, 2025, and June 2025. Specifically:

- *XRP ETF Deadline:* May 22, 2025, for filings from Canary, Bitwise, and Grayscale

- *Dogecoin ETF Deadline:* June 15, 2025, for Bitwise's Dogecoin ETF

- *Other Altcoin ETFs:* Franklin Templeton's spot XRP ETF decision has also been delayed

Analysts estimate a high chance of approval for XRP ETFs in 2025, with Bloomberg predicting a 65% chance and Polymarket estimating 72%. The SEC's decision will significantly impact the crypto market, potentially paving the way for mainstream investors to access these altcoins through traditional stock accounts ¹ ².
