Dogecoin ETF: The DTCC Gate That Teases The Market

Like a row of weary prisoners waiting for the whistle, the 21Shares Dogecoin ETF has inched into the DTCC precincts, a milestone on the road to a launch that pretends to be progress while the clock ticks away. The fund, known by the ticker TDOG, still trembles on the edge of the regulator’s desk, awaiting the final word. 😂🧭

TDOG Appears On DTCC Platform

Swiss asset manager 21Shares has set its Dogecoin ETF, trading under TDOG, before the Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation, now listed on the DTCC’s Active and Pre-Launch roster. Broker-dealers can run their checks-setting up the ticker, smoothing the clearing wires-while the vast machinery pretends to be efficient. 😅

The listing mirrors the old ritual where BTC and ETH spot ETFs appeared on DTCC before any trading. But this listing is not a seal from the SEC; it is merely a preparatory whisper on the wall. 🤔

TDOG’s appearance underscores the growing institutional attention to Dogecoin. Grayscale filed a spot Dogecoin ETF after the SEC delayed 21Shares’ filing. Rex-Osprey rolled out a hybrid Dogecoin ETF last week, and it traded more briskly on its debut than many predicted. 😏

Such a listing signals demand enough to trouble the stillness of the market; yet the real act remains to be written by regulators. 📝

SEC Approval Remains The Final Step Before Trading

Even with the DTCC listing in place, trading cannot begin without the SEC’s blessing. The regulator is poring over 21Shares’ filing to ensure compliance with every rule, as if the paperwork itself could move mountains. The DTCC step advances, but the curtain will not rise until the SEC speaks. 🗣️

The SEC process typically involves public comments, agency feedback, and detailed checks. Timelines are murky; the Commission has already pushed back once, citing the need to review Nasdaq’s rules. ⏳

If approval comes, the Dogecoin ETF would land on U.S. exchanges, giving investors regulated exposure to Dogecoin. The 21Shares Dogecoin ETF (TDOG) is now on the DTCC platform. For now, TDOG remains under review, its fate tied to the SEC’s final nod. 🧭
