Reasons for SEC Delays on Dogecoin ETF Decisions
The SEC has repeatedly delayed decisions on several DOGE ETF applications, citing the need for thorough review.
> In June, the Commission said: > "Institution of proceedings does not indicate that the Commission has reached any conclusions with respect to any of the issues involved." > "Rather, the Commission seeks and encourages interested persons to provide comments on the proposed rule change," it added.
Impact of ETF Approval on Dogecoin's Price
Approval could significantly boost DOGE’s price by enabling institutional investment, akin to the effects of Bitcoin ETF approvals. Conversely, a rejection may lead to temporary price dips.
As the market anticipates the approval of Dogecoin ETFs, investors and analysts continue to closely monitor the SEC's decisions. The final decision on most applications is expected between October 2025 and January 2026.
