The US SEC has acknowledged the filing by 21Shares for a Dogecoin ETF, initiating a formal review process.
The acknowledgment does not mean approval but triggers a period of scrutiny and public comment lasting up to 240 days.
21Shares' proposed ETF aims to track Dogecoin's price with actual DOGE tokens, partnering with the Dogecoin Foundation's corporate arm.
Several other asset management firms have also applied for Dogecoin ETFs in the US, with a 63% to 75% chance of approval estimated by industry analysts.
