The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) delayed decisions on three crypto exchange-traded funds (ETFs) on Sept. 10.<\/p>\n

The decisions postponed BlackRock\u2019s<\/a> Ethereum<\/a> staking proposal alongside Franklin Templeton\u2019s<\/a> spot XRP<\/a> and Solana<\/a> ETF applications. The delays come as the SEC develops a generic listing framework<\/a> that could streamline future crypto ETF approvals.<\/p>\n

The postponements position these applications for potential approval during an anticipated October batch decision window, aligning with previous predictions.<\/p>\n

Bloomberg ETF analyst James Seyffart<\/a> noted in April that crypto ETFs would likely get a batch of approvals in October<\/a>, when some of the over 90 filings reach their final deadlines.<\/p>\n

Generic framework<\/h2>\n

The SEC has been working with US exchanges on a standardized listing framework for token-based ETFs that would eliminate individual rule-change requests for qualifying assets.<\/p>\n

The initiative would allow ETF sponsors to bypass the customary Form 19b-4 process when underlying tokens meet predetermined criteria.<\/p>\n

Under the proposed framework, sponsors would submit registration statements on Form S-1, observe standard 75-day review periods, and list products once the waiting periods have ended.<\/p>\n

Market capitalization, on-exchange trading volume, and daily liquidity represent key metrics under discussion for qualification thresholds.\u00a0The current rule-change pathway requires each spot crypto ETF to secure a Commission order before listing, a process designed for novel or complex products.<\/p>\n

Moving to standing rules for qualifying assets would shorten timelines and reduce iterative comment cycles between the agency and applicants.<\/p>\n

Approval jumpstart<\/h2>\n

Eric Balchunas<\/a> said on Sept. 9 that the \u201cmemecoin ETF era [is] about to kick off\u201d with a Dogecoin<\/a> ETF slated for launch on Sept. 11<\/a> under the 40 Act structure.<\/p>\n

Balchunas said this could potentially become \u201cthe first-ever US ETF to hold something that has no utility on purpose,\u201d considering Dogecoin was originally created as a tribute to the Doge meme.<\/p>\n

A successful Dogecoin ETF launch could catalyze broader approval momentum for pending applications.<\/p>\n

Seyffart previously shared that there are 92 crypto ETF applications<\/a> divided across various assets, including Solana, XRP, Litecoin<\/a>, and staking versions of existing products awaiting SEC decisions.<\/p>\n

The comprehensive filing list reveals applications from major issuers, including VanEck<\/a>, Grayscale<\/a>, Canary<\/a>, Bitwise<\/a>, and Franklin Templeton, covering assets ranging from established cryptocurrencies to emerging tokens.<\/p>\n
