21Shares has filed to launch a Dogecoin ETF on Nasdaq, as per the SEC submission.

21Shares Targets Institutionalization with Dogecoin ETF
21Shares, a digital asset manager based in Switzerland, has submitted an SEC proposal for a Dogecoin ETF. The ETF aims to give institutional and retail investors direct DOGE exposure.
Nasdaq is the proposed listing venue, while Coinbase Custody is named as the custodian. Dogecoin Foundation will help market the ETF once approved.
Dogecoin Price Unfazed by ETF Filing Announcement
The filing has stirred some interest, but the immediate DOGE price reaction remains unchanged. Institutional inflows depend on the ETF’s approval status.
If approved, the ETF could lead to broader DOGE market acceptance, possibly influencing other meme coins and major cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Ethereum.
Crypto ETFs: Historical Performance and Expectations
In the past, other crypto ETFs such as Bitcoin and Ethereum saw significant inflows but had mixed price impacts. Approval processes were extensive and complex.
Experts suggest the Dogecoin ETF could attract similar flows, influencing broader market dynamics. Success depends on market sentiment and regulatory landscapes.
