- SEC review extensions for XRP and Dogecoin ETFs align with typical timelines, with no indication of denial.
- CME’s XRP futures launch strengthens the case for ETF approval by showing institutional market readiness.
- Polymarket data shows an 80% approval probability for XRP ETFs, reinforcing market confidence in 2025 approvals.
The likelihood of XRP and Dogecoin ETFs entering the market in 2025 remains strong despite recent regulatory delays. According to industry expert Nate Geraci, both assets are still expected to secure approval this year. The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission has extended its review of the proposed spot XRP ETF by Franklin Templeton and Bitwise’s Dogecoin ETF.
SEC Review Extensions Within Expectations
Although the SEC’s extension pushed the timeline further, the delay did not surprise market watchers. The prolonged process is typical for cryptocurrency-related filings. Bloomberg analysts continue to predict a possible XRP ETF approval by October, indicating confidence in the outcome. The extension appears to align with the standard pace of SEC decision-making rather than indicating rejection.
The recent confirmation by the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME) to list XRP futures may improve the asset’s chances for an ETF. Futures trading often signals a maturing market and adds credibility to the asset class. The rollout is seen as a step forward, supporting broader institutional interest and regulatory acceptance. Market participants view this development as a sign of progress for potential spot ETFs.
Market Sentiment Holds Steady on Approval Odds
According to Polymarket, the current market sentiment places an 80 percent chance on XRP receiving ETF approval before the year ends. These figures have remained consistent for over two months, suggesting that the industry remains confident despite regulatory procedures. Bitwise’s Dogecoin ETF filing continues to be part of this optimism, as broader interest in memecoins sustains attention in the ETF space.
The ETF sector is adapting to regulatory dynamics while continuing to advocate for more crypto-based products. Experts suggest that the attention surrounding these filings reflects the increasing mainstream acceptance of digital assets. Besides XRP and Dogecoin, industry players are closely watching how these approvals may influence other altcoin-related ETF proposals in the future.
