The US financial markets welcomed the historic launch of the first spot Dogecoin (DOGE) ETF on September 18. The REX-Osprey Dogecoin ETF (DOJE) recorded an impressive $17 million in volume on its first trading day, as noted by Bloomberg ETF expert Eric Balchunas.
Balchunas also states that this feat puts the DOJE ETF among the top five of the 710 ETFs launched in 2025. He believes that this momentum is a promising sign for the wave of new crypto ETFs expected to hit the market soon.
With the excitement for meme coins building, seasoned investors are now betting big on Maxi Doge (MAXI), a viral new meme coin that brands itself as Dogecoin’s risk-obsessed cousin. Its immediate appeal has already encouraged investors to invest more than $2.3 million into the MAXI token presale.
You can still buy MAXI for $0.000258 in its ongoing presale, but this price is set to increase quickly in the upcoming round. Could Maxi Doge’s viral branding and presale success position it as the next meme coin to explode in 2025?
REX Shares Files for Another Dogecoin ETF as SEC Opens Gates
The successful launch of DOJE represents much more than just another crypto product hitting Wall Street. It’s truly a paradigm shift, as traditional US investors get real exposure to a meme coin for the first time in history.
The DOJE ETF launch has now laid the groundwork for other crypto ETFs to follow in its footsteps. The analyst James Seyffart points to REX Shares filing for a new “DOJE Growth and Income ETF,” and Tidal introducing a new collection of leveraged crypto indexes – including two focused on the altcoin sector.

On the regulatory front, the US SEC has also greenlit the generic listing standards for crypto-related exchange-traded products (ETPs). This regulatory breakthrough will eliminate the lengthy approval process that previously delayed the launch of crypto ETFs.
At the same time, smart money investors continue to pile into Ethereum (ETH) ahead of a highly anticipated altcoin season rally. For context, spot ETH ETFs in the US recorded a net inflow of about $213 million on Thursday, compared to $163 million in positive flows for Bitcoin funds.
With expectations of a full-blown altseason right around the corner, investors are now looking for opportunities among smaller-cap meme coins. One project that is quickly gaining traction is Maxi Doge, with investors flocking to its presale ahead of its exchange listing.
Why Investors Are Backing Maxi Doge as It Surpasses $2.3 Million in Presale
One of the major reasons for an optimistic investor outlook toward Maxi Doge is its branding focus. The maximalist meme coin’s design revolves around a jacked Shuba Inu character, an over-the-top caricature of the most resolute and risk-seeking traders.
As Maxi Doge raises more than $2.3 million in presale, early supporters are already drawing parallels to Dogecoin’s early success. But while Dogecoin had little utility to offer when it first launched, Maxi Doge promises to provide its holders with actual use cases from the get-go.
For instance, the project has set aside 25% of its total token supply for the “MAXI Fund,” which will be used exclusively for building strategic partnerships and organizing community contests. The project’s ambitious goal includes empowering its holders to trade MAXI with up to 1000x leverage on futures platforms, while giving them plenty of profit-making opportunities in native events and competitions.
The popular Web3 commentator Crypto Tech Gaming believes that Maxi Doge’s initial presale success and clearly structured tokenomics can contribute to the long-term growth of the MAXI token.
The only official place to buy MAXI right now is through Maxi Doge’s presale website. You can still lock in the presale rate of $0.000258 and even stake your holdings for an annual yield of up to 141%.
