Grayscale has filed an S-1 registration statement with the US Securities and Exchange Commission seeking approval for a spot Dogecoin ETF. The move adds another Dogecoin ETF to the slate already under SEC review, including filings from Bitwise and REX-Osprey. Other meme-coin ETF proposals under review include TRUMP, BONK, and Pudgy Penguins, underscoring the growing institutional push to bring meme-coin funds into the regulated ETF space.
The filing comes a day after the SEC delayed decisions on several Solana ETF applications from Bitwise, 21Shares, and VanEck, as well as a separate Dogecoin ETF proposal from 21Shares. Dogecoin has been underwhelming in the current cycle compared to its 2021 mania peak, when it briefly traded above $0.72. Since the start of the year, DOGE has mostly moved sideways in a narrow $0.15 to $0.25 range, with no major breakouts or breakdowns. It was last changing hands at $0.228, according toCoinGecko data.
