SOL, XRP and DOGE Spot ETFs Likely to Be Approved by SEC in Coming Months, Analysts Say

Crypto ETF issuers may not have to wait much longer to expand beyond spot bitcoin and ether funds.
Bloomberg ETF analysts Eric Balchunas and James Seyffart now see a 75% or greater chance the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) approves a range of spot altcoin ETFs by the end of 2025.
Eight separate spot fund proposals are currently in front of the SEC, including ETFs tied to solana (SOL), litecoin (LTC), dogecoin (DOGE), XRP, cardano (ADA), avalanche (AVAX), polkadot (DOT), and hedera (HBAR). Balchunas and Seyffart believe index and basket-style ETFs — which group multiple cryptocurrencies — have the highest odds of approval, pegging those chances at 90%.
The first key deadline comes on July 2, when the SEC must respond to proposals filed by firms including Grayscale, Bitwise, Franklin Templeton, and Hashdex for basked-style funds. Decisions on single-asset ETFs like SOL, DOGE, XRP, and ADA are expected in October, with others following in November and December. These are final deadlines, meaning the SEC — which previously delayed decisions — will be required to issue a final rulings.
Some issuers have submitted intent to launch funds tracking smaller-cap tokens such as SUI, Trump Coin (TRUMP), and Melania Coin (MELANIA), but these have not yet advanced to the formal 19b-4 stage — a requirement filing to trigger an SEC review.
Seyffart noted that SUI’s chances could be on par with the other altcoin filings. “I need to dive in a bit more for an official odds number, but I’d assume it would have similar prospects to the other altcoin ETFs,” he said.
The outlook for altcoin ETFs shifted sharply after U.S. President Donald Trump took office, and his appointment of crypto friendly Paul Atkins as SEC chairman. Atkins recently told industry participants that innovation “has been stifled” and the existing regulatory framework “badly needs attention.”

Bitcoin Jumps Above $97K as Traders Optimistic U.S.-China Trade Deal Possible

Bitcoin (BTC) is trading above $97,000 during the Asian morning hours as the market breathes a sigh of relief that the U.S. and China are said to be working on a trade deal, even if the market is also skeptical that a deal will be reached this month.
«The U.S. has proactively reached out to China through multiple channels, hoping to hold discussions on the tariff issue,» China state media posted on social media.
Dogecoin (DOGE) led gains among majors with a 4% rise in the past 24 hours. Cardano’s ADA, XRP, ether (ETH) and BNB rose between 1-3%, with the broad-based CoinDesk 20 (CD20) rising 2.2%.
Movement’s MOVE extended losses to 21% as the company confirmed founder Rushi Manche had been suspended following a CoinDesk exposé of possible token manipulation involving the 21-year-old.
On Polymarket, bettors are skeptical that a deal will come this month, giving it only a 20% chance of happening by June. Bettors are likely concerned that the hawkish rhetoric from the White House means a deal may take longer than a month to be reached.
The speed and intensity of the tariffs the White House announced earlier this year panicked the market, leading to a significant drop in BTC’s price, but with this apparent trade detente, $100,000 bitcoin is back on the agenda.
Other crypto metrics are looking healthy, market observers say, putting $100K bitcoin in sight.
«Momentum continues to build across crypto with spot flows broadening, alt activity heating up and subtle but meaningful shifts in market structure,» trading and technology group Flowdesk said in a recent market note.
«As BTC ranges above $90K, undercurrents of risk appetite are growing stronger within both spot and derivative markets. Liquidity remains strong with rising volumes, surging weekend activity, and improving altcoin depth. At the same time, broad-based spot buying continues, led by speculative alts and AI tokens, alongside $1.5B in Bitcoin ETF inflows as institutional demand grows,» Flowdesk also wrote.
The market is also likely optimistic about Strategy’s continued BTC buys, and push towards further institutionalization.
As CoinDesk recently reported, Michael Saylor announced that Strategy is raising $21 billion for more BTC buys.
In a recent note, Presto Research said investors are increasingly impressed by Strategy’s growing institutional sophistication, highlighted by new valuation frameworks like BTC Torque and a strong focus on accurately pricing its fixed-income instruments.
Kava milestone pushes AI tokens higher
Artificial Intelligence (AI) tokens are in the green on Friday as the market reacts positively to news from Kava Labs that it hit 100K users of its decentralized AI platform.
Data from CoinGecko shows the market segment is up 3%, beating the CoinDesk 20, a measure of the performance of the largest digital assets, which is up by 1.8%.
«People are turning to Kava AI because it offers two things most platforms don’t, verifiability and privacy,» Kava Labs’ Scott Stuart said to CoinDesk in an email. «That includes users who are deeply embedded in Web3 as well as those simply seeking an alternative to opaque, centralized AI systems.»
Interest in Kava and decentralized AI growing globally, Stuart said, as more users recognize the value of AI that’s both decentralized and transparent, not reliant on a black-box model governed by a handful of corporations.

Movement Labs Suspends Rushi Manche Amid Coinbase Delisting, Token-Dumping Scandal

Movement Labs announced today on X that it had suspended co-founder Rushi Manche.
The move to suspend Manche comes as Coinbase delisted the MOVE token, after CoinDesk reported that Movement Labs is investigating how a market maker tied to Web3Port acquired and dumped over 5% of the token’s supply, triggering a price crash.
Binance had previously banned the market maker at the center of this, Web3Port, from its platform.
The MOVE token is down about 20% on the day, according to CoinDesk market data.

U.S. Senate Moves Toward Action on Stablecoin Bill

The U.S. Senate may soon vote on legislation that would establish U.S. regulations for the issuers of stablecoins, also marking the first time the chamber has considered a major crypto bill.
Senate Majority Leader John Thune, a South Dakota Republican, started the ball rolling to fast-track the Guiding and Establishing National Innovation for U.S. Stablecoins (GENIUS) Act, which is the Senate’s version of two similar bills rolling through both chambers of Congress. The House of Representatives is expected to follow closely behind on its own voting. Thune’s move to expedite the bill is meant to limit delays and floor action in order to get it done more quickly. It’s so far unclear precisely when the Senate vote will happen, but an earlier vote on the effort in the Senate Banking Committee had approved it with a wide bipartisan majority of 18-6. The House Financial Services Committee also advanced its similar bill in April.
“I look forward to passing the GENIUS Act in short order to keep digital asset innovation in America, protect customers, and make sure foreign companies are playing by the same rules,” said Senator Bill Hagerty, the Tennessee Republican who authored the bill, in a statement. It’s also backed by Senator Tim Scott, the chairman of the Senate Banking Committee.
President Donald Trump’s self-described crypto sherpa, Bo Hines, the executive director of the Presidential Council of Advisers for Digital Assets, told CoinDesk earlier this week that the two bills are as much as 90% similar and that members of both chambers are seeking to work out the differences.
Hagerty said he would introduce an updated version of the bill earlier Thursday.
