Canary Spot Pengu ETF faces Extensive review
The Canary Spot Pengu ETF, submitted by Canary Capital, tries to combine Pudgy Pinguins (Pengu) Memecoin -Tokens with Pudgy Penguins NFTs. The Deadline was pushed from 28 August to 12 October 2025. Since the SEC issues a consideration with regard to the protection, appreciation and compliance with investors, this hybrid structure has come under regulatory control.
“The committee thinks it is appropriate to indicate a longer period within which action can be taken,” said the SEC in its submission and emphasizes the need for a thorough assessment.

Grayswaarden Cardano ETF delay extends to October
The SEC also postponed his decision on Grayscale’s Cardano ETF, intended to convert his ADA trusts into a spot ETF, which moved the deadline from 27 August to 26 October 2025. The supervisor called constant concerns about the protection of investors and market structure.
