XRP, Dogecoin ETFs set to launch in U.S. this week

REX‑Osprey says its spot XRP ETF (ticker XRPR) will debut this week after clearing the SEC’s 75‑day window under the 1940 Act. A Dogecoin fund (DOJE) is also slated for launch, in what would be the first U.S. memecoin ETF.

REX‑Osprey touts it as the first U.S. product to offer spot exposure to XRP. The filing cleared the Investment Company Act of 1940 75‑day review period, letting it launch automatically unless the SEC objects.

A separate Dogecoin ETF (DOJE) from the same issuer is also expected this week. ETF watcher Eric Balchunas said DOJE is slated for a Thursday launch. Both products used the 1940 Act route, which differs from the Securities Act of 1933 pathway used for spot Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs.

These launches will test a fresh read on altcoin ETF appetite. Nate Geraci called XRPR a “litmus test” for demand versus any future ’33 Act spot products; futures‑based XRP ETFs are already nearing $1 billion in assets by his tally.

Issuer context: REX‑Osprey launched the SSK Solana Staking ETF in July. It holds SOL (with a portion natively staked) but has seen modest AUM so far relative to BTC/ETH peers. In late August’25, the issuer also filed for a BNB staking ETF.

The pipeline is filling up. Bloomberg’s James Seyffart counts 90+ crypto exchange‑traded products in front of the SEC. Canary Capital’s Litecoin ETF has a final decision due in early October. Bitwise filed a spot Avalanche (AVAX) ETF this week, while the SEC delayed decisions on Bitwise’s Dogecoin ETF and Grayscale’s Hedera ETF to Nov. 12.

First‑day trading volumes and flows will show how much retail and advisory demand these funds can capture compared with the larger BTC/ETH cohort.
