Is the launch of a Dogecoin ETF the ultimate sign of crypto adoption, or is it a signal that the market has officially become a casino?


The first-ever U.S. Dogecoin futures ETF ($DOGEX) is set to debut this Thursday, bringing the original meme coin to Wall Street.


What does this mean for the space? Does this legitimize DOGE as a long-term asset, or is it just creating another way for traditional finance to gamble on crypto's most famous joke?

22 Answer

  • Proof of Concept for Altcoins: Following Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs, a Dogecoin ETF proves that the regulatory door is open for a wider variety of altcoins, including those with purely community-driven or "memetic" value. This is a profound shift in the integration of crypto into traditional finance (TradFi)

  • A DOGE ETF? That’s next-level adoption, let’s hope it’s not the top 😂

  • It's the ultimate signal that the market is a casino. Legitimizing a joke asset for speculation shows TradFi has fully embraced crypto's gambling side, not its utility.

  • A Dogecoin ETF doesn't legitimize the asset; it legitimizes gambling. Traditional finance isn't embracing crypto's ideals—it's just packaging its volatility for speculative profit, turning the market into their casino.

  • Adoption or peak meme mania?

  • This is a crazy time for crypto, and it shows how crazy, crazy, and powerful the market can be. The launch of a DOGE ETF is a classic "double-edged sword," and the effects are more complicated than they seem at first.


    You can't stress enough how important this is as a sign of mainstream acceptance. Wall Street doesn't make things just for fads. They make things that people will want for a long time, have a lot of brand recognition, and are always available. Against all odds, Dogecoin has shown that it has all three in spades. This ETF gives a regulated, easy-to-use way for a whole new group of investors—like retirement accounts and traditional funds—to invest in cryptocurrencies without having to use a crypto exchange. For them, $DOGEX is a real way to get in, which brings in new money and attention to the space. It means that Dogecoin is a real brand that will be around for a long time.


    The other side of the sword, on the other hand, is very sharp. You need to know that this is a futures-based ETF, not a spot ETF. This means that investors are not buying and holding real DOGE; instead, they are buying derivative contracts that bet on the price in the future. This fact is important because it backs up the story for people who don't believe that crypto is a serious technological movement and is just a way to gamble. It doesn't directly increase demand for the underlying coin like a spot ETF would. It also shows where the SEC stands right now: they are fine with cash-settled futures but are still not sure about spot products that would give people direct ownership of crypto assets.


    In the end, this action makes Dogecoin a legitimate financial product that can be traded, but it doesn't do much to prove that it is a good technological project. It's a huge step forward for the DOGE brand and a win for accessibility, but it also makes people think about what crypto really is. Are we making a new world that isn't controlled by one person, or are we just making new things for the old world to trade? The launch of a Dogecoin ETF is a big deal because it makes that question even clearer than before.

  • Does ETF guarantee a price surge like what happened with BTC last year 🤔??

  • This is an embarrassment. We're trying to build a new, decentralized financial system, and the first meme coin ETF gets approved while spot ETH ETFs are delayed. This makes the entire industry look like a joke and rewards projects with zero development or utility. This is not the kind of adoption we should be celebrating.

  • Just so you know, the only reason this is happening is because Rex-Osprey is using the same "loophole" (the Investment Company Act of 1940) that they used to start their SOL ETF "SSK."


    This isn't the SEC saying anything about DOGE compared to the other coins with pending ETFs. It's just Rex-Osprey saying that they think SOL and DOGE will have the most trading volume.


    Under the '33 Act, all of the other ETFs, including other DOGE ETFs, are still waiting for SEC approval.

  • Launch? 9/11? What could go wrong
