The U.S. SEC has extended review deadlines to November 12 for the Bitwise Dogecoin ETF proposal filed with NYSE Arca, and for the Grayscale Hedera ETF, keeping both applications under formal regulatory consideration after their March filing and Federal Register publication.
Grayscale has amended filings for its long‑running Litecoin and Bitcoin Cash trusts to seek conversion to exchange‑listed ETFs. Conversion would permit daily creations and redemptions, a mechanism that generally reduces OTC premiums and aligns market pricing with underlying net asset value.
The procedural delays reflect the growing volume of altcoin ETF applications since 2025 and the resulting regulatory backlog, underscoring continued SEC scrutiny rather than indicating a predetermined approval path.
