The United States of the United States (SEC) has once again postponed the approval process of various crypto -oriented stock market investment funds (ETF). The Commission extended the decision -making time for seven different ETF applications until October 2025. Behind the delay, the regulation changes brought by the applications should be more examined.
Regulatory process and related ETFs
Truth Social Bitcoin among the postponed ETFs $115,054.16 and Ethereum 
$4,266.78 ETF, several different XRP ETF, a Litecoin 
$116.73 ETF and a Stinging Ethereum ETF. According to the statement published by the SEC on August 18, 2025, the evaluation time of the Truth Social Bitcoin and Ethereum ETF was extended until October 8, 2025. The institution stated that he needed an additional examination period when making this decision.
Likewise, Coinshares XRP ETF, 21shares Core XRP ETF, Canary XRP Trust and Grayscale XRP Trust projects were also postponed. In addition, the evaluation time of Coinshares Litecoin ETF and 21shares Core Ethereum ETF (Stinging feature) was extended.
“The Commission decided that it is appropriate to determine a longer evaluation time in order to have sufficient time to approve or decide to approve or reject the proposed rules.”
New calendar and negative effects
According to the newly specified dates, the deadline for Grayscale XRP Trust is announced on October 18, 2025, 21s for the XRP ETF on October 19, 2025, and Coinshares XRP ETF and CANARY XRP Trust 23 October 2025. Likewise, October 23, 2025 was decided for Coinshares Litecoin ETF and 21shares Core Ethereum ETF (with Stinging).
SEC’s decision came after him not to take any steps for the Four Solana ETF application. This shows that the institution has a tendency to subject similar applications for a long time. Therefore, the final decision did not have an unexpected development for market players.
This postponement also affected the possibility of ETF approval on various foresight platforms. On the platforms following crypto projects, for example, Litecoin ETF’s probability of approval by the end of the year was recorded as 79 percent. In the analysis, this rate was 82 percent the day before.
Similarly, the probability of the XRP ETF to be approved by the SEC fell to 77 percent. This possibility was recorded as 77.6 percent the previous day. This decline shows that the uncertainty of the process in general is reflected in market expectations.
As the deadline in October is approaching, the crypto industry closely follows a more precise decision. The ongoing delays create uncertainty in the decision -making processes of investors and project owners. It is foreseen that the approval of these ETFs can prepare the ground for increasing institutional interest in crypto assets.
