    21Shares’ TDOG Dogecoin ETF appears on the DTCC list while SEC approval remains pending

    TDOG is a physically backed ETF created by 21Shares to give Dogecoin price exposure without holding the coins directly. Its recent appearance on the DTCC file list opens the door for purchase through ordinary brokers, helping both institutions and retail traders who prefer to avoid private key storage. This DTCC step indicates operational readiness, not permission, as SEC approval is still required.

    The ETF holds real DOGE in institutional custody—Coinbase Custody is one example—so the fund’s value mirrors Dogecoin’s price moves. The description states, “TDOG is designed as a physically backed ETF, which means it holds real Dogecoin.”

    DTCC registration often precedes U.S. exchange trading but does not constitute regulatory approval. The SEC still needs to rule, and several deadlines sit in November 2025 based on current filings.

    Structure and DTCC status

    TDOG lowers entry hurdles by allowing investors to buy via normal brokerage accounts, shifting operational risk to a professional custodian, and keeping tax paperwork simpler because it’s a listed security. These features provide DOGE returns without the need to manage private keys.

    Trade-offs are clear: management fees gradually trim returns, holders have no on‑chain DOGE and cannot spend it, volatility remains, and trading follows equity market hours rather than crypto’s 24/7 clock. Regulatory shifts can also change the fund’s status or performance.

    Market watchers are signaling anticipation, with Polymarket pricing a 94% chance of eventual DOGE ETF approval and large wallets holding 10.91 billion DOGE—the highest in four years, according to the supplied data. These indicators reflect growing interest around potential approval.

    Competition already exists, as REX‑Osprey introduced the DOJE product in September 2025. This suggests alternative vehicles are available while TDOG awaits the next regulatory steps.

    The next checkpoint is the SEC decision—only final approval would allow TDOG to trade widely in the United States. Until then, milestones like the DTCC listing demonstrate preparedness, not permission.
