BREAKING: First-Ever Dogecoin ETF ($DOJE) Poised for Launch Next Week - Here’s What You Need to Know

Wall Street finally catches up to the meme revolution as regulatory filings indicate the inaugural Dogecoin ETF could hit markets as soon as next week.

The $DOJE Trust

Sources close to the matter confirm the proposed fund would track DOGE's spot price—giving institutional investors their first pure-play exposure to the cryptocurrency that began as a joke but now commands a $20+ billion market cap.

Why This Matters

Traditional finance has largely watched from the sidelines as crypto ETFs exploded in popularity. This move would legitimize Dogecoin alongside Bitcoin and Ethereum in the eyes of retirement accounts and hedge funds—though skeptics question whether the market needs another vehicle for speculative assets.

Timing and Implications

With approval seemingly imminent, traders are positioning for potential volatility. The ETF structure eliminates the friction of direct crypto ownership while providing the regulatory comfort blanket institutions crave—even if it means paying management fees for something you could hold in a digital wallet yourself.

As one fund manager quipped: 'We'll happily charge 0.95% annually to hold an asset that was created to mock everything we stand for.' Sometimes the joke writes itself.

The first-ever Dogecoin ETF may be hitting the market soon. REX-Osprey has filed for the REX-Osprey DOGE ETF ($DOJE), which would give investors direct exposure to the performance of Dogecoin ($DOGE), the original memecoin. The same firm recently launched $SSK, the first Solana + staking ETF, and is now expanding into meme assets. Bloomberg analyst reacted and said that the filing looks effective under the 40 Act, meaning $DOJE could launch as early as next week. Alongside Dogecoin, future ETFs linked to Trump, XRP, and Bonk could also be on the table.
