The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) is expected to acknowledge the spot exchange-traded fund (ETF) filings for XRP and Dogecoin as early as this week.
The SEC’s recent significant move was acknowledging the amended Solana ETF application by Grayscale on February 6. Now, Bloomberg ETF analyst James Seyffart suggests that amended filings for XRP and Dogecoin ETFs could be the next to receive acknowledgment.
Seyffart, alongside his colleague Eric Balchunas, currently places the odds of approval for spot Litecoin (LTC) and Solana (SOL) ETFs at 90% and 70%, respectively. The SEC has already acknowledged Form 19b-4 filings for both of these cryptocurrencies, with the final decision deadlines set for October 2 and October 25, 2025.
Beyond these, there is growing anticipation for the approval of XRP and Dogecoin ETFs. Seyffart noted in a post on X (formerly Twitter) on February 10 that these applications could get a nod from the SEC this week. The Cboe BZX exchange filed S-1 forms for XRP ETFs with several firms, including Canary Capital, WisdomTree, 21Shares, and Bitwise. Similarly, Grayscale and Bitwise have also filed S-1 forms for Dogecoin ETFs. Analysts expect Form 19b-4 filings for these to be acknowledged on February 13 and 14, respectively.
Looking further ahead, Seyffart and Balchunas believe that by the end of 2025, both the SEC and Commissioner Hester Peirce’s crypto task force will help provide much-needed regulatory clarity, particularly in resolving the ongoing debate about whether cryptocurrencies should be classified as securities or commodities.
