The clarity Act arrives: What does it mean for DOGE and XRP?

ETFs as a Regulatory Gateway for Cryptos

The bill introduced by the Senate Banking Committee, led by Tim Scott, brings a major shift. The text proposes a simple criterion: any digital asset serving as the primary underlying for an ETF listed before January 1, 2026 would automatically be classified as a non-accessory asset.

In concrete terms, this means treatment as a commodity, not as a security. This approach puts an end to complex debates about decentralization or token utility, providing immediate legal clarity.

For assets like XRP or Dogecoin, often under regulatory pressure particularly from the SEC, this recognition would represent major institutional legitimization, creating a genuine regulatory competitive advantage.

DOGE and XRP Leading the 2026 Altseason?

If these two tokens stand out particularly, it’s because they’re already among the serious ETF candidates. With Bitcoin near its peaks and Ethereum firmly established, asset managers are looking for the next growth drivers.

Commodity status would open access to institutional funds, which have so far been reluctant to gain exposure to DOGE or XRP. The market seems to be starting to anticipate this scenario, with gradual accumulation observable in order books.

If the bill passes, a violent breakout cannot be ruled out, not only for DOGE and XRP, but also for other assets like Solana, Litecoin or Hedera. As the Senate prepares to debate the text, many see it as the fundamental catalyst capable of triggering a genuine altcoin explosion in 2026.
