U.S. Spot ETFs for DOGE & XRP Unlock New Access
The post U.S. Spot ETFs for DOGE & XRP Unlock New Access appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Crypto News 27 September 2025 | 11:40 REX Osprey has launched the first U.S.-listed spot ETFs for Dogecoin (DOGE) and XRP (XRPR), giving investors regulated, direct exposure to two of the market’s most popular altcoins.

This move follows earlier milestones such as Solana’s staking ETF approval and reinforces that spot crypto ETFs are no longer niche products.
