Rex Shares and Osprey Funds, Investment Fund Administrators based on Operational Cryptocurrencies in the US., recently submitted 21 applications before the Bag and Securities Commission (SEC)looking for authorization for products that include a variety of Altcoins beyond Bitcoin and Ethereum. ANDIn the leading coins are found Cardano (ADA), Stellar (XLM), SUI (SUI) and Hype (Hype).

Betting on ETF and Staking

Unlike traditional ETFs, Several of these proposals integrate staking mechanisms. This would not only allow managers to track the performance of the price of tokens, but also generate additional rewards when keeping assets as part of the validation of operations in certain networks. Among the currencies indicated for Staking appear toDa, Avax, Dot, Near, Sei, Sui, Tao and Hype.

The strategy takes as reference the success of the ETF Solarium With Staking, released by Rex-osprey, which showed solid yield and opened the door to this approach but now applicable to other currencies with similar mechanisms for transaction validation.

Applications are not limited to the US market. According to the documents presented, reviewed by Cryptopolitan, up to 40% of assets could be invested in ETPs listed abroad, such as those marketed by 21Shares, Coinshares and Valour. This diversification reflects the intention of expanding global exposure while maintaining the regulatory structure of funds in the US.

To meet the tax and regulatory demands, managers resort to subsidiaries in the Cayman Islands. These entities allow administrators to continue exposed to digital assets without losing the status of regulated investment companies in US territory. With this they seek a balance between international flexibility and regulatory compliance.

New standards and deadlines in the Sec

The moment of these applications is not accidental. On September 17, the regulatory body approved a new set of generic standards for listings of products linked to raw materials, including cryptocurrencies. This change eliminates the need for processes in case by means of the complex route of the form 19B-4, which significantly reduces waiting times.

Published analysis consider that this modification marks a decisive advance towards the integration of cryptoactive in conventional financial products. By simplifying the road, ETFs could reach the market much faster than under the previous rules. However, regulatory benefits could be overshadowed by external factors.

The panorama faces an additional complication: the partial closure of the United States government, the result of the lack of consensus in the Congress About the federal budget. The reduction of personnel in the regulatory agency slows down the evaluation of applications, including those of Rex-Osprey and other managers who face limit dates in the coming weeks.

Experts warn that the situation could replicate background such as the end of 2018, which lasted for more than a month and stopped the progress of regulatory initiatives. The lack of movement in that period served as a precedent of how internal policy can directly impact the evolution of the crypto financial market.

October: Decisive month for ETF crypt

October 2025 is emerging as a key moment for industry. The regulatory entity has final terms for at least 16 ETF requests, several related to Altcoins. These include proposals based on Solana, XRP and Litecoin, which reflects the advance towards a more inclusive coverage of digital assets.

The accumulation of deadlines and the expectation of approval of more agile standards could mark a before and after for institutional adoption. However, the uncertainty generated by government paralysis introduces doubts about the speed and scope of these changes. Investors and issuers will be attentive to how the interaction between financial and political innovation in the United States during this decisive month evolves.
