Cryptocurrency investors in the U.S. are about to reach a major milestone. REX-Osprey's DOJE ETF was set to begin trading today, September 12.
It will be the first clear XRP fund in the US under the Investment Company Act of 1940. There are several different ETFs in the basket, and each one is linked to a different cryptocurrency or token.
Here are some of the most important ones:
-
The Dogecoin ETF.
-
An XRP ETF (REX-Osprey XRP).
-
A Trump token/meme coin ETF (often just referred to as “Trump ETF”) linked to the $TRUMP token.
-
Also Bonk.
The ETF has reached "post-effective" status after the SEC looked at it for 75 days and found no problems. Bloomberg ETF analysts Eric Balchunas pointed out that the time for the REX-Osprey's DOJE ETF has been delayed to next week.
As this historic spot Dogecoin and XRP fund prepares to go live, investors are watching closely, wondering what this means for XRP's price trajectory, future ETF filings (including for Dogecoin), and the broader push toward regulated digital asset exposure.

The ETF is traded on a regulated U.S. stock exchange and is subject to the Investment Company Act of 1940. This is different from buying XRP or Dogecoin directly on an exchange.
This means that:
-
Stocks trade during regular stock market hours.
-
Investors don't need a crypto wallet or exchange account, and
-
The ETF structure gives traditional brokerage investors a familiar regulatory framework.

You can buy these exchange-traded funds through any brokerage that lets you trade stocks and ETFs. Some examples are Robinhood, E*TRADE, or TD Ameritrade, to name a few. You can also find brokers that work through apps, like Webull. You can open most accounts online in a few minutes.
Transfer funds from your bank account to your brokerage account. You need cash to buy ETFs, just like you do to buy stocks.
When the ETFs go live, each one will have its own ticker, like "DOJE" for the REX-Osprey. Then, type the ticker symbol into the search bar of your brokerage. Review the fund's information, including its expense ratio and trading volume.
