Bitwise Asset Management has quietly nudged Dogecoin one step closer to Wall Street\u2019s ETF club, filing an amended S-1 on 26 June that for the first time allows \u201cin-kind\u201d creations and redemptions. The tweak is more than procedural. It lines the proposed Bitwise Dogecoin ETF up with the operational playbook the US Securities and Exchange Commission already blessed for spot-bitcoin and spot-ether products, and it signals that SEC staff are now deep in the weeds on the mechanics of custody and settlement.<\/p>\n

Signs Point To Dogecoin ETF Approval<\/h2>\n

\u201cBitwise has filed amended S-1s for their spot Dogecoin ETF and their spot Aptos ETFs. Good signs as it indicates SEC engagement, and tracks with other spot approvals,\u201d Bloomberg Intelligence senior ETF analyst Eric Balchunas wrote<\/a> on X. He underscored the importance of the new language: \u201cOne HUGE update to the filing is \u2018in-kind\u2019 creations and redemptions\u2026 Near-lock at this point that in-kind will be allowed in spot ETFs across board.\u201d<\/p>\n

The change matters because in-kind processing lets authorized participants swap DOGE directly for ETF shares (and vice versa) without the tax friction and slippage that accompany the cash-only model imposed on futures-based crypto funds. The SEC\u2019s willingness to consider that structure for a dog-branded altcoin would have seemed fanciful a year ago. It now appears consistent with the regulator\u2019s post-bitcoin-ETF d\u00e9tente, during which issuers also sought in-kind redemptions.<\/p>\n

Approval odds are converging on the high end of the spectrum. Less than a week ago, Balchunas and fellow analyst James Seyffart raised their probability for \u201cthe vast majority\u201d of pending altcoin ETFs\u2014including Dogecoin\u2014to \u201c90 percent or higher,\u201d citing what Seyffart called \u201cvery positive\u201d SEC engagement.<\/p>\n

Notably, that optimism has not fully washed into prediction markets: on Polymarket, the contract<\/a> titled \u201cDoge ETF approved in 2025?\u201d was trading around 69% early Friday morning in Europe, while a shorter-dated line for approval by 31 July priced in barely 13% odds.<\/p>\n

Dogecoin Price Stalls (For Now)<\/h2>\n

Dogecoin itself has yet to reflect the regulatory tail-wind. The token changed hands near $0.161\u2014down roughly 2% on the day. Technical trader Kevin (@Kev_Capital_TA) line in the sand\u201d at the $0.143\u20130.127 support band: \u201c<\/p>\n

\"Dogecoin<\/p>\n

Yet Kevin cautions that meme-coin exuberance ultimately hinges on the Federal Reserve, not tweet-driven hype. In a separate post this week, he noted that fresh highs in bitcoin dominance continue to ride \u201crestrictive monetary policy and an uncertain geopolitical environment.\u201d Alt-season, he wrote, will require the end of quantitative tightening and a tangible decline in the US terminal rate\u2014conditions absent since late-2023 and still distant according to Fed-funds futures.<\/p>\n

At press time, DOGE traded at $0.16123.<\/p>\n
