The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has chosen to delay its approval decisions regarding spot XRP and Dogecoin (DOGE) exchange-traded funds (ETFs), aligning with predictions from analysts.

What to know:

• Approval decisions have been postponed until June 15 for the Bitwise DOGE ETF and June 17 for the Franklin XRP Fund.
• The SEC can extend the decision timeframe from 45 to 90 days if further consideration is needed for the proposed regulatory changes.
• Analyst James Seyffart noted that these delays were anticipated, with most filing deadlines expected in October 2025 or later.

The SEC indicated on Tuesday that it requires additional time to evaluate the proposed rule changes surrounding these ETFs, stating: “The Commission finds it appropriate to designate a longer period within which to take action on the proposed rule change so that it has sufficient time to consider the proposed rule change and the issues raised therein.”

In a post on platform X, James Seyffart remarked:

“We also had the SEC delay decisions on Ethereum Staking and Dogecoin ETFs today. I expect more delays today or at least this week on some Solana and Hedera/HBAR ETF filings. This is expected IMO. Final deadlines for most of this stuff is in October 2025 or later.” Source
Translation: We also had the SEC delay decisions on Ethereum Staking and Dogecoin ETFs today. I am expecting more delays today or at least this week on some Solana and Hedera/HBAR ETF filings. This is expected in my opinion. Final deadlines for most of this stuff is in October 2025 or later.

XRP and DOGE prices remain relatively stable alongside flat Bitcoin market activity.
