According to BlockBeats, official data reveals that Grayscale has submitted an S-1 application to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) for a DOGE ETF.

According to Cointelegraph, U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission Chair Paul Atkins announced that the agency plans to collaborate with U.S. President Donald Trump's administration to provide retail investors with equal opportunities to invest in private equity. This initiative follows a recent executive order by President Trump, which aims to include cryptocurrencies and alternative assets in 401K retirement accounts. These accounts are tax-sheltered retirement plans funded by individuals and their employers. Atkins emphasized the importance of diversifying investment opportunities for 401K holders, similar to those available to large endowments and state pension funds. He stated that the executive order directs the Department of Labor and the SEC to work together to achieve this goal. However, Atkins also stressed the need for caution and the implementation of "proper guardrails" around alternative investments to ensure investor protection. The SEC has been focusing on regulating cryptocurrencies to position the United States as a global leader in digital assets. Expanding access to private equity could enable retail investors to participate in early-stage crypto projects and private token sales, which are typically limited to accredited or institutional investors. While the SEC has not commented on potential changes to accredited investor rules, the agency previously revised these regulations in 2020 to prioritize financial knowledge and skill over net worth. Despite these changes, current regulations remain restrictive, preventing retail investors from accessing certain investment products. Christopher Perkins, president of investment fund CoinFund, highlighted that these rules serve as consumer protection to prevent investors from taking excessive financial risks. Private investments often lack the disclosure requirements of public companies and require more financial expertise to understand. Additionally, they are generally illiquid, posing risks of financial contagion through overleveraging or malinvestment during economic downturns.
