In doing so, the Commission initiated a potential 240-day review of the application, during which the ETF sponsor, i.e., Grayscale, is expected to register the shares of the proposed product. On August 15, 2025, the asset manager completed this crucial step with the submission of the Form S-1 registration statement for the Grayscale Dogecoin Trust. According to the content of the document, the proposed ETF is structured as a Delaware Statutory Trust, designed to give investors exposure to Dogecoin through a familiar investment vehicle without requiring them to hold or manage the cryptocurrency directly.The trust issues shares that represent fractional undivided beneficial interests in its underlying Dogecoin holdings, with the value of each share closely tied to the market price of the asset. As with spot ETFs, the Grayscale Dogecoin Trust is physically backed, meaning that every share issued corresponds to actual Dogecoin. Meanwhile, Coinbase Custody Trust Company acts as the custodian, responsible for safeguarding the trust’s Dogecoin holdings, while Coinbase Inc. and the Bank of New York Mellon (BNY) act as prime broker and administrator/transfer agent of the trust, respectively. In addition, the Trust only accepts cash orders for share creation or redemption. Only authorized participants can create and redeem shares in exchange for the underlying asset, a mechanism designed to keep the share price aligned with the NAV.
