Bitwise Starts 20-Day Clock for Spot Dogecoin ETF With Section 8(a) Filing

The move lets the registration become effective without a formal SEC approval unless regulators step in during the window.

Overview

  • By removing the delaying amendment from its S-1, Bitwise triggered Section 8(a), setting up potential effectiveness around November 26 if the SEC takes no action.
  • The fund would hold DOGE directly, use Coinbase Custody for tokens and BNY Mellon for cash, track the CF Dogecoin-Dollar benchmark, and is expected to list on NYSE Arca.
  • Bloomberg’s Eric Balchunas highlighted the filing as a deliberate use of the 20-day auto-effectiveness route.
  • The SEC can still issue a stop order or seek amendments that would pause or restart the countdown, and operational steps could separate the effective date from the first trading day.
  • REX-Osprey’s DOJE launched in September, and Bloomberg analysts estimate better than 90% odds that multiple Dogecoin ETFs will be trading by year-end.
