While the listing of Polkadot and Sui ETFs on DTCC’s official website sparked excitement, experts stress that regulatory approval has not yet been granted.
The U.S.-based central securities depository DTCC has added Polkadot (TDOT) and Sui (TSUI) ETFs, developed by 21Shares, to its official platform. However, this step does not mean the funds are ready to begin trading.
According to experts, the DTCC listing is part of the standard preparation process that ETFs go through before entering the market. It does not indicate that regulatory approval has been obtained or that all necessary procedures have been completed. For these ETFs to actually launch, approval from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) remains essential.
The inclusion of Polkadot and Sui in the ETF pipeline reflects growing institutional interest in altcoin-focused products. Following the approval of spot Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs, expectations around altcoin ETFs have strengthened. Still, the decisive moment for investors will come only if the SEC gives the green light.
