21Shares’ proposed spot Dogecoin ETF has appeared on the Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation’s public “Exchange Traded Funds — Active and Pre-Launch” roster under the ticker TDOG, a procedural milestone that readies Wall Street’s plumbing for potential trading but does not itself confer regulatory approval. Spot Dogecoin ETF Clears DTCC Step DTCC’s page explicitly aggregates both active funds and pre-launch tickers eligible for clearing and settlement, a step that historically has preceded launches for spot Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs, but with no guarantee on timing or outcome. While not a greenlight, the listing signals that broker-dealers can begin operational checks, including ticker set-ups and clearing eligibility.

The regulatory status remains unchanged: the US Securities and Exchange Commission is still reviewing 21Shares’ spot Dogecoin application. Nasdaq filed a 19b-4 in April to list the 21Shares Dogecoin ETF under its commodity-based trust rules, and the Trust’s S-1 describes a physically backed product that would hold DOGE and value shares against CF Benchmarks’ Dogecoin-Dollar pricing. In mid-August, the SEC formally instituted proceedings on the Nasdaq proposal, extending the review. Separately, the broader landscape shifted on September 18, when the SEC approved generic listing standards for spot commodity and digital-asset ETFs at US exchanges, shortening the potential filing-to-launch window but not altering asset-specific scrutiny. Context is also important: 21Shares is not alone in pursuing US spot DOGE exposure. Grayscale filed its own spot Dogecoin S-1 in mid-August, a day after the SEC delayed action on 21Shares’ bid. Meanwhile, outside the “pure” spot lane, Rex-Osprey’s DOJE ETF launched last week with hybrid exposure and above-expected first-day volume, underscoring investor appetite for meme-coin wrappers even as the Commission continues to weigh fully spot products. For traders, the question is whether TDOG’s DTCC footprint moves price now. History suggests the market often reacts to visible operational progress: BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin ETF famously appeared on DTCC weeks before its January 2024 debut. Will The DOGE Price React? At press time, DOGE traded around $0.240, little changed on the day, reflecting the distinction between operational milestones and capital commitments. The clearest near-term price lever may not be TDOG itself but Bitcoin’s regime. As technical analyst Kevin (@Kev_Capital_TA) put it after the listing surfaced, “BTC we need you to get your shit together relatively soon. Thank you. #Dogecoin #DOGE.” Related Reading: Dogecoin Ready To Bark Again? Analyst Sees Path To $0.45 In a longer note, he argued that “BTC is essentially trapped between 125K–106.8K,” with fading spot volumes and macro-data-driven swings, and that the “higher time frame goal is to break the weekly bear div and close weekly/monthly candles above the 125K area.” If that doesn’t happen, he cautioned, “practice caution,” because inflows into a DOGE spot ETF would likely be modest in a risk-off tape. Wrappers like ETFs tend to amplify existing trends rather than create them. DTCC appearance is a necessary back-office step; the catalysts that typically unlock sustained flows are a) an effective S-1 and a cleared exchange rule filing, b) a constructive macro/crypto risk backdrop, and c) distribution muscle. The first two remain unsettled. While the SEC’s September 18 move to adopt generic listing standards may compress timelines across altcoin proposals, 21Shares’ DOGE product still awaits the Commission’s specific determinations under both the S-1 and the exchange’s 19b-4. Notably, there is one more practical read-through from recent months. Spot altcoin ETF tickers have increasingly appeared on DTCC before decisions, from Solana to XRP and Hedera, and Bloomberg’s ETF desk has noted that most such entries eventually reach market—though not all, and not on a predictable calendar. That is the relevant precedent for TDOG today: the pipes are being fitted, the street is on notice, and the next decisive price catalyst likely resides not in the DTCC table, but in Bitcoin’s ability to resolve its range and re-ignite beta.

The Global M2 Money Supply has been on the rise over the last year, reaching new peaks in the process. This chart was widely applied to the Bitcoin price as analysts believed that it projected Bitcoin reaching new peaks. So far, the Bitcoin price has already climbed to $124,400 with the money supply chart, and now, analysts are applying the same Global M2 Money Supply chart to the Ethereum price, showing that the altcoin could land at 5-figures soon. What The Global M2 Money Supply Says About Ethereum Price Crypto and market analyst Ted Pillows has taken another route when it comes to predicting the Ethereum price action, and this time, he’s using the Global M2 Money Supply chart. In the X post, the analyst superimposes the Ethereum price chart into the Global M2 Money Supply chart to show how the altcoin has been performing in comparison. Related Reading: Dogecoin Price Could Break Into Double-Digit Rally From This Fibonacci Level The chart shows that the Ethereum price is still lagging behind the money supply chart, but its current position shows it might be ready for another surge. Following the money supply chart would mean that the Ethereum price could see a decline below $4,000, but this is ultimately bullish for the price. This is because of the liquidity that lies at the $4,000 level, and if this liquidity is taken out, then the analyst sees the Ethereum price using this as gunpowder for its next rally. Keeping in line with the Global M2 Money Supply trend, this blowout could lead to an over 300% increase in price. Pillows suggests that the Ethereum price could reach as high as $18,000-$20,000 if this plays out, with a timeline moving into the year 2026. Even in a more conservative stance, the analyst believes that the Ethereum price could trade at half of this target, which would be around $10,000. Ultimately, Pillows believes that Ethereum is still bullish in the long term. The $10,000 Target Pillows is not the only crypto analyst who sees the Ethereum price ultimately reaching the $10,000 target. Another analyst, Titan of Crypto, had previously predicted that Ethereum would ultimately reach $10,000 this year. Titan points to the Bull Pennant formation on the chart, whose breakout would inadvertently put the Ethereum price at the $10,000 target this year if it plays out correctly. Related Reading: XRP Needs To Defend $2.98 Support To Avoid Deeper Correction – Details However, for now, it seems the major problem for Ethereum lies at the $4,000 level with the budding liquidity. Crypto analyst Donald Dean points out that if the altcoin were to lose support at $4,200, then the next area of major support would lie at $4,070. However, this $4,070 would serve as a launch point if it holds. Once this happens, then the analyst sees the ETH price going on a 50% retracement, and eventually climbing to the $5,766 target as the rally takes hold.

After losing the $4,450-$4,500 area during the recent market downturn, Ethereum (ETH) is attempting to hold a crucial level as support. Some analysts suggest that the leading altcoin is poised to bounce soon as crypto treasury companies continue to bet on the cryptocurrency. Related Reading: Bitcoin Stuck In Neutral While Markets Roar — Analyst Explains Why Ethereum Eyes Rebound Amid $4,100 Retest On Monday, Ethereum’s price dropped around 7% during the largest liquidation event of the year so far. Notably, the crypto market saw more than $1.7 billion in leveraged positions liquidated over the past 24 hours, according to CoinGlass data. ETH led the losses with nearly $500 million in liquidations, followed by Bitcoin’s $284 million. This dragged the King of Altcoin’s price to the crucial $4,100 support for the first time since August, hitting a one-month low of $4,077. Daan Crypto Trades highlighted that today’s event was the largest nominal Ethereum liquidation since 2021, when the cryptocurrency’s price dropped around 45% in a single day. However, various market watchers noted that the price decline was relatively tame compared to previous liquidations of this scale. As the second-largest cryptocurrency dropped to the $4,100 support, some analysts suggested that Ethereum is gearing up for a rebound. Merlijn The Trader affirmed that ETH is “following the blueprint” to a five-digit target. Per the trader, the cryptocurrency rallied to its previous all-time high (ATH) of $4,800 after breaking out of a multi-year bullish pattern. Following its breakout from an Adam and Eve formation in 2021, the leading altcoin retested the level as support and consolidated around this area for three months before the next leg up. This time, Ethereum displays a new textbook setup with a multi-year descending triangle formation, which was broken out of last month and is currently being retested as support. According to the market watcher, ETH could see a 2021-like breakout toward the $10,000 barrier. Nonetheless, Ted Pillows asserted that the altcoin must hold the $4,100 area as support for a short-term bounce. “If this level is lost, Ethereum will drop towards the $3,700-$3,800 level,” the analyst warned. BitMine Holds 2% Of ETH Supply Despite the market downturn, corporations continue to bet on the second-largest cryptocurrency for their Digital Asset Treasury (DAT) strategies. BitMine, the second-largest crypto treasury, revealed that it has increased its ETH holdings to nearly 2.5 million tokens over the past week, as part of its goal to hold 5% of Ethereum’s total supply. BitMine now owns over 2% of the supply with 2,416,054 ETH, solidifying its position as the largest ETH Treasury in the world. According to the Monday announcement, the company now holds $11.4 billion in assets, including the 2.4 million ETH tokens, 192 Bitcoin (BTC), $175 million stake in Eightco Holdings for its “Moonshot” initiative, and unencumbered cash of $345 million. Additionally, the company is the 24th most traded stock in the US, with an average daily volume of $3.5 billion, according to 5-day average data from Fundstrat.

And the majority of this is taking place on Ethereum.” As of this writing, ETH is trading at $4,145, an 8% decline in the weekly timeframe.
