Canary Capital submits SEC S-1 to register spot PEPE ETF amid expanding memecoin ETF push

Canary Capital submitted an S‑1 registration statement to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission seeking to list a spot PEPE ETF, according to filings and reporting on the submission ^{[1] [2]}.

Observers say the filing comes as memecoin fund activity expands beyond Dogecoin, following recent GDOG and BONK‑related ETF filings, and is being framed as a test of institutional demand for meme tokens ^{[3] [1]}.

Coverage notes the S‑1 begins the formal registration process with the SEC and that multiple crypto outlets picked up the announcement, while the application remains subject to regulatory review ^{[2] [4]}.

The Canary PEPE S‑1 adds to a series of memecoin ETF filings but does not guarantee approval; the application will proceed through the SEC’s review process ^{[1] [2] [3]}.
