according to the American ETF provider REX SharesREXShare, the first batch of American ETFs providing XRP and DOGE spot exposure, issued in collaboration with Osprey Funds, will be listed on CBOE on September 18, providing investors with a way to invest in these digital assets through an ETF structure.

The approval process for such products is completely different, as they do not require explicit approval from the US SEC and automatically take effect 75 days after application. According to the documents submitted to the SEC by REX-Osprey, these two ETFs will invest at least 80% of their net assets in reference assets and other assets providing exposure to reference assets, with at least 40% of assets directly invested in other ETFs and ETP shares, including non-US ETPs.
