Last year, the crypto market recorded two significant successes: some account issuers received eager approvals to provide spot-traded Bitcoin exchange-traded funds and their Ethereum-based counterparts in the U.S.  ,
In recent months, fund managers have proposed new investment options straight tracking the costs of a variety of bitcoin, from Dogecoin to XRP, Solana, and yet Donald Trump’s image gold.  ,
A summary of the different crypto-based ETFs that may soon be available in the United States is provided here as well as a look at the most notable filings for each asset thus far.
Solana
One potential substitute for Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs that could start investing in the United States this year or next is Spot Solana exchange-traded resources.
The proposed funds, which include the VanEck Solana Trust, 21Shares Core Solana ETF, Coral Solana ETF, and Binary Solana ETF, had immediately record the price of the fourth-largest crypto by market capitalization.
However, a handful of proposed Solana future ETFs such as the ProShares Short Solana, ProShares 2x Solana, and Vol Shares ‘ Solana ETF would allow investors to make more complex bet on Solana’s cost actions.
However, both spot and futures Solana ETFs will likely not begin trading in the U. S. until 2026, according to Bloomberg analyst James Seyffert. Because of the ongoing scrutiny of a batch of spot Solana ETF applications, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission is still doing so.  ,
The SEC typically takes between 240 and 260 days to make decisions on applications. However, the ongoing legal battle over whether or not Solana is a security could make the process for a number of potential Solana ETFs longer.
Nevertheless, if and when spot Solana ETFs are approved, the investor dollars they attract could be massive. Analysts at JP Morgan project that Solana ETFs will bring in between$ 4 and$ 8 billion in investments overall.
Dogecoin
Following a string of political unrest that slingshot the Shiba Inu-inspired meme coin to a three-year high of$ 0.48 in December, a few issuers have made it known that they plan to offer spot Dogecoin ETFs.
Exchange-traded fund provider Rex Shares applied in January to launch the Rex-Osprey DOGE ETF, the company’s filing with federal regulators shows.
Meanwhile, Bitwise Asset Management has registered a Dogecoin ETF entity in Delaware, a major step towards applying for permission to launch an exchange-traded fund based on Elon Musk’s beloved cryptocurrency. Before any potential funds can be released, Bitwise must still submit a thorough application to the SEC.
Analysts are bullish that it won’t take long for Dogecoin ETFs to hit the market, however. A spot Dogecoin ETF could theoretically debut as early as April, according to Bloomberg senior ETF analyst Eric Balchunas this week, thanks to a rule that allows federal regulators to weigh in on investment offering proposals within a quicker 75-day window, as opposed to the typical review period of eight to nine months.
XRP
Federal regulators are scheduled to weigh in on applications for the funds later this month as federal regulators review funds created around the Ripple-linked XRP, such as the Rex-Osprey XRP ETF, Canary XRP ETF, and 21Shares Core XRP Trust.  ,
A number of anticipated rule changes at the SEC raises the possibility that regulators will soon approve the funds in the U.S. Despite the uncertainty surrounding the approval of the ETFs, it is unclear whether or not they will be approved.
If XRP ETFs are approved, then the funds could collectively bring in between$ 3 and$ 6 billion in investments, according to a recent estimate from J. P. Morgan analysts.
Beyond spot XRP ETFs, XRP futures-based exchange-traded funds such as the ProShares Short XRP and ProShares 2x XRP are also up for consideration in the U. S.  ,
The first would allow investors to short XRP, and the second would allow investors to place leveraged bets on cryptocurrency’s upcoming price changes.
HBAR
Last November, Canary Capital submitted its first HBAR ETF. The Hedera network’s native cryptocurrency is HBAR.  ,
In an X post in December, Bloomberg analyst Eric Balchunas expressed optimism about a spot HBAR ETF’s chances of getting approved in the United States, claiming that it might debut before its more well-known Solana and XRP-based competitors. Despite that, he said, it is still unclear whether there is enough investor demand for a fund like this.
Litecoin
Following President Donald Trump’s inauguration this week, a slew of Litecoin-based ETF applications have been submitted as a result of the chilly crypto regulatory environment showing signs of decomposition.  ,
The New York Stock Exchange indicated that Greyscale is attempting to convert its current Litecoin Trust into an ETF, while CoinShares filed two registration statements for” CoinShares Litecoin ETF” and” CoinShares XRP ETF.”
The new filings come nearly two months after Canary Capital filed for its own Litecoin ETF and just days after Canary amended its application for the fund.  ,
Litecoin is a peer-to-peer cryptocurrency created to improve verification time for blockchain transactions. Much like its spot HBAR ETF counterpart, Canary Capital’s Litecoin ETF is likely to get approved before Dogecoin, XRP, and Solana-based funds, according to Bloomberg analyst Eric Balchunas.  ,
According to Balchunas, the regulatory status of Litecoin is less disputed than that of other altcoins like Solana, which are still the subject of legal battles between the SEC and major crypto industry players.  ,
BONK, Trump, and beyond
Rex Shares filed with federal regulators in January to launch spot Trump and BONK-based ETFs, respectively.
The proposed funds are a part of a growing list of meme coin-based investment products that have been spun up by issuers, who are apparently eager to capitalize on investors ‘ growing interest in the digital assets market in the wake of the most recent crypto bull run.
According to Bloomberg analysts, TRUMP, BONK, and other meme coin-based ETFs could start trading as soon as April—that is, if issuers ‘ proposals go through and pass a speedy review process with federal regulators.
