Bitwise Asset Management has filed for a spot Dogecoin (DOGE) exchange-traded fund (ETF) in the United States, aiming for regulatory approval by the end of November. The filing, submitted on November 6, 2025, utilizes Section 8(a) to potentially achieve automatic effectiveness after 20 days unless the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) intervenes. This move is part of a broader trend where investors are increasingly seeking regulated access to popular cryptocurrencies. A spot DOGE ETF could significantly enhance institutional exposure to Dogecoin, aligning it with existing Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs. Market participants are closely watching SEC feedback, fee structures, and market responses as the approval deadline approaches.
