NYSE Arca Seeks SEC Approval for Grayscale Dogecoin ETF
The move follows Grayscale’s recent launch of its Dogecoin Trust. The Grayscale Dogecoin ETF would function similarly to Grayscale’s existing cryptocurrency trusts. Coinbase Custody Trust is set to act as the fund’s custodian, while BNY Mellon will oversee administrative and transfer services.
Interest in Dogecoin-based investment products has surged, with Bitwise also filing for a Dogecoin ETF earlier this week. Just a year ago, the prospect of a regulated Dogecoin ETF seemed unlikely, but the recent filings highlight the cryptocurrency’s increasing legitimacy within financial markets.
