- Cardano, Dogecoin, and Polkadot ETFs each hold a 90% approval chance in 2025.
- Multi-asset crypto ETF with 95% odds could gain SEC approval this very week.
- Solana Staking ETF launches Wednesday, using foreign ETF exposure to meet SEC rules.
Cardano may soon join the growing list of cryptocurrencies embraced by traditional finance. According to top Bloomberg analysts, the odds of a spot Cardano ETF gaining approval in 2025 have surged to 90%. This projection follows broader expectations of a flood of crypto ETF approvals in the second half of 2025.
