Dogecoin ETF Could Launch in the US Next Week

Dogecoin may be on the verge of its first exchange-traded fund (ETF) in the United States, with a potential launch as early as next week.

ETF issuer REX Shares has filed an effective prospectus with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), opening the door for a Dogecoin ETF under the Investment Company Act of 1940. This pathway mirrors the approach used for its recently approved Solana staking ETF, offering a regulatory alternative to the traditional S-1 and 19b-4 filings.

The move positions Dogecoin alongside other major crypto assets making their way into regulated financial products. While most issuers are still awaiting SEC decisions on Bitcoin and Ethereum products through the conventional route, REX’s strategy provides a faster track to market.

Dogecoin has seen renewed momentum in 2025, climbing over 116% in the past year despite trading 54% below its December 2024 highs. With its long-standing cultural relevance and growing institutional interest, the potential launch of a DOGE ETF could mark another milestone in bringing the meme coin into mainstream finance.
