The launch of the first Dogecoin (DOGE) exchange-traded fund (ETF), with the ticker symbol DOGEE, has been postponed once more. Originally anticipated to debut on September 11th or 12th, the launch is now expected to happen next Thursday, September 18th. This news comes from Bloomberg ETF analyst Eric Balchunas, who shared the update on X. The ETF is a joint venture between REX and Osprey.
Despite the delay, Dogecoin’s price has been on the rise. In the last 24 hours, DOGE has increased by over 5% and has seen a 20% rally over the past week, driven by anticipation of the ETF’s debut.
The article also explains the origins of Dogecoin, a cryptocurrency created in 2013 by software engineers Billy Markus and Jackson Palmer. What started as a joke based on an internet meme has evolved into the eighth-largest cryptocurrency by market cap, thanks in part to its popularity with the crypto community and influential figures like Elon Musk. The upcoming ETF will allow retail investors to easily get exposure to DOGE.
