Market Bytes: Which altcoin ETFs will we see next?

Since the launch of spot ETFs for BTC and ETH last year, investors have been wondering when the market will see such products for altcoins. And the wait appears to be almost over.
    Last week, a new kind of Solana ETF hit markets and Grayscale received approval from the SEC for a mixed crypto ETF, holding BTC, ETH, XRP, SOL, and ADA, though the launch process was subsequently paused.
    Analysts believe that approvals for spot ETFs tracking XRP, SOL, and LTC are likely next in line. Bloomberg’s James Seyffart raised his odds to 95% that spot ETFs for those three tokens will be approved by the end of this year. Based on when the applications were filed, speculation is that LTC is first in line to receive spot ETF approval, followed by SOL, then XRP.
    Beyond those tokens, Bloomberg pegs approval for ETFs for DOGE, ADA, DOT, HBAR, and AVAX at 90%.

Market Bytes: Litecoin spikes on potential ETF launch news

Last year at this time, crypto markets were rallying after the blockbuster debut of spot BTC exchange-traded funds. This week, Litecoin (LTC) surged by around 20% on the news that Canary Capital had received comments from the SEC on its application for an ETF that would buy LTC and sell shares via conventional markets.
    “Litecoin ETF now has all the boxes checked,” Bloomberg ETF analyst Eric Balchunas said on X. “The first altcoin ETF of 2025 is about to be on the clock.”
    The SEC is also considering applications from firms for ETFs that would hold SOL, XRP, HBAR, and even an index of cryptocurrencies, similar to the S&P 500 — as well as a new application for an ETF that would hold President Trump’s token.
    Why might an LTC ETF be approved before applications for tokens like Solana and XRP? In part, Balchunas says, because it’s “seen as a commodity” like BTC. (In fact, Litecoin’s code is based on Bitcoin’s.)
    According to JPMorgan analysts, the market for ETFs holding XRP and Solana could be worth as much as $14 billion in their first year of trading.
