According to a Securities and Exchange Commission official release issued on June 30, 2026, the SEC published Release No. 33-11426, a formal request for public comment on how to regulate exchange-traded funds investing in novel asset classes or employing novel strategies. The release poses 27 questions on whether such products qualify as investment companies, whether the existing Rule 6c-11 framework is adequate for complex products, and whether registration timelines need adjustment. The SEC explicitly includes crypto asset funds, event-contract products, and leveraged strategies in the scope of novel ETFs. Comments are due 60 days after Federal Register publication on July 2, 2026, placing the deadline in early September. The review directly affects a backlog of altcoin ETF filings, including pending products for XRP, Solana, Dogecoin, Hedera, and Sui from issuers including Bitwise, Grayscale, Franklin, VanEck, and Hashdex.
