A Dogecoin (DOGE) spot exchange-traded fund (ETF) is reported to be launching on the 11th (local time).
On the 9th (local time), Bloomberg analyst Eric Balchunas said on X (formerly Twitter), "RexShares' Dogecoin spot ETF will launch on the 11th," adding, "it will be the first ETF in the U.S. to hold a meme coin."
Earlier, RexShares had submitted an application for a Dogecoin spot ETF to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) under the Investment Company Act of 1940. Generally, crypto asset ETF issuers must submit S-1 and 19b-4 filings to the SEC, but choosing the 40 Act method allows for a faster launch.
