TL;DR
- 21Shares advances Dogecoin ETF plans, updating filings with fees, custodians, and partners.
- Amendment confirms 0.50% fee, Dogecoin payments, and delaying provision controlling effective date.
- TDOG prepares Nasdaq listing using $1.5 million seed capital for DOGE acquisition.
21Shares intensifies its push for a spot Dogecoin ETF, after updating its registration statement before the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). The filing outlines a 0.50% management fee, introduces new custodians, and confirms operational partners for the structure that will trade under the ticker TDOG on Nasdaq.
Issuer Confirms Fee Structure and Custodial Framework
A new amendment submitted to the SEC states that 21Shares will charge a 0.50% management fee, accrued on a daily basis and paid in Dogecoin each week. The issuer has not announced a fee waiver, a feature that some ETF providers include during early trading days to attract flows. The filing maintains the delaying amendment, a procedural step that keeps the issuer in control of the effective date through an 8(a) submission.
The document presents an expanded operational map for the trust. The Bank of New York Mellon will act as administrator, cash custodian, and transfer agent. Two additional entities — Anchorage Digital Bank and BitGo — will serve as custodians for Dogecoin holdings. These roles shape the operational core of the financial product that will mirror CF Dogecoin-Dollar US Settlement Price Index data.
TDOG Prepares for Listing on Nasdaq
The exchange-traded fund is scheduled to appear on Nasdaq under the symbol TDOG, where it will track DOGE price movements. Earlier disclosures noted Coinbase Custody Trust Company as custodian, along with 21Shares US LLC as the seed capital provider. The trust plans to use $1.5 million to acquire Dogecoin either at the moment of listing or shortly before.
Further details in the filings name Wilmington Trust NA as trustee, Foreside Global Services as marketing agent, and Cohen & Company as accounting firm. The structure reflects a framework common to digital-asset ETFs that rely on multiple service providers to support custody, administration, and compliance.
