🔥 Day 8 Hot Topic: XRP ETF Goes Live
REX-Osprey XRP ETF (XRPR) to Launch This Week! XRPR will be the first spot ETF tracking the performance of the world’s third-largest cryptocurrency, XRP, launched by REX-Osprey (also the team behind SSK). According to Bloomberg Senior ETF Analyst Eric Balchunas,
#DOGE ETF上市# The first DOGE ETF in the United States debuts, the GT wealth myth is upgraded!
The first DOGE ETF in the United States (code: DOJE) was jointly launched by REX Shares and Osprey Funds, scheduled to officially list on September 18 (Thursday). This ETF adopts the structure of the Investment Company Act of 1940, bypassing the lengthy 19b-4 approval process for traditional spot ETFs, and quickly received SEC approval.
ETF Structure Revealed: Why Is It Said to "Deliberately Hold Useless Assets"?
Bloomberg analyst Eric Balchunas bluntly stated: DOJE is "the first ETF in the United States to intentionally hold non-utility assets." This statement seems sarcastic but actually reveals the disruptive nature of the DOGE ETF - the financial revolution of meme coins.
Unlike traditional Bitcoin spot ETFs, the underlying design of DOJE is full of "sneaky moves":
1 The cleverness of circumventing regulation with the "40 Act": registering under the Investment Company Act of 1940, avoiding the SEC's lengthy 19b-4 rule approval. This framework requires funds to meet standards such as diversification disclosure and investor protection, but allows investment in derivatives through Cayman subsidiaries, perfectly circumventing the regulatory risks of directly holding spot assets. 2 Exposure to derivatives rather than holding spot: The ETF does not directly purchase DOGE, but tracks the price through futures and swap contracts. The remaining 20% of assets are allocated to U.S. Treasury bonds or cash to maintain liquidity. This reduces custody risk but may result in tracking errors and higher management fees.
3 Opening the floodgates for retirement accounts: DOGE can be included in compliant channels such as Individual Retirement Accounts (IRA), attracting traditional conservative funds.
After a huge breakthrough, where does the target price look? Can the surge of DOGE continue?
Traders have drawn key offensive and defensive lines:
Short-term goal: After breaking through $0.30, the next resistance level is at $0.45. If it can hold the support at $0.26, momentum may push the price up to $0.80.
Extreme bullish expectations: Analyst Javon Marks has set a target of $0.6533 (over 100% increase from the current level), approaching the historical high of $0.73.
Risk Warning: The Federal Reserve's decision from the meeting on September 16-17 may trigger short-term volatility. The meme nature of DOGE makes it susceptible to emotional drives, so caution is needed for a rapid pullback after positive news is fully priced in.
The counterattack of meme coin:
From Musk's plaything to Wall Street assets, the financialization process of DOGE is rewriting the traditional financial definition of "value": community culture defeats pragmatism! DogeOS CEO Jordan Jefferson pointed out, "The ETF approval proves that institutions recognize the value of community culture."
DOGE has survived for ten years not due to technological advantages, but because of viral marketing and community consensus.
The unexpected advantages of PoW consensus differ from PoS meme coins like Shiba Inu. DOGE adopts a proof-of-work (PoW) mechanism derived from Bitcoin, which has a quantifiable energy consumption benchmark, serving as implicit technical support for its approved ETF.
The entry of institutions changes the valuation logic.
After the ETF launch, DOGE may replicate the trajectory of Bitcoin ETF—raising $12-20 billion in the first month, doubling the market cap in the short term. Institutions like Grayscale continue to buy, with the proportion of long-term holders on-chain surging by 526%, and the average holding period extended from 7 days to 4 months.
How to cope with this wave of meme financialization?
Opportunities and risks coexist, follow the trend, but be wary of fluctuations:
The initial listing of the ETF may bring price pulses, but the structure of DOGE derivatives may amplify volatility.
Adopt conservative position management and avoid leverage.
Pay attention to ETF capital flow data: the scale of capital inflow in the first week after listing is a key indicator. If there is a continuous net inflow, it will form long-term price support.
Layout ecological related assets: The rise of DOGE will drive attention to other meme coins (such as SHIB, PEPE), but it is necessary to select varieties with community consensus and liquidity.
The DOGE ETF is a landmark event in the history of cryptocurrency — it signifies that the financial system finally acknowledges: consensus itself is value. However, the speculative nature of meme coins has never changed; in this frenzy, surviving is more important than how much one makes.
