According to a recent rumor, the SEC is considering an expedited process to streamline altcoin ETF applications. This new generic listing standard would work with exchanges, bypassing the need for a Form 19b-4.
Traditionally, the Commission has delayed approving an ETF as much as possible to ensure a unique assessment for each application. Many current proposals already have a Form 19b-4, so this change might not help them, but it’s an incredibly good sign for approval.
The SEC is under new management, ushering in a tidal wave of new altcoin ETF applications. It’s been engaging with these proposals, clearly signaling positive intentions, yet the Commission hasn’t actually approved anything.
However, Congressional crypto reporters now claim that the SEC is planning to overhaul the process altogether:
SCOOP: The @SECGov is in the early stages of creating a generic listing standard for token-based ETFs in coordination with exchanges.
The thinking, I’m told, is that if a token meets the criteria, issuers could skip the 19b-4 process, file an S-1, wait 75 days, and the…

This decision would mark a dramatic shift for the ETF approval process in several ways. Over the last few months of delays, analysts have noted that this process is structured to move slowly.
Right now, to list a token ETF, issuers have to go through two approval steps:
This process is slow, inconsistent, and full of back-and-forth.
Under the rumored new idea, if a token meets the standard, no 19b-4 is needed. The issuer just files the S-1, waits 75 days, and the ETF could go live.
Also, this means fewer case-by-case decisions for the SEC and more standardization. Issuers will know upfront which tokens qualify.
The SEC usually takes as much time as possible to consider ETF filings, trying to consider all the possible ramifications of their approval.
If multiple altcoins meet the standard, then ETF applications tied to those could move together and be approved faster, without separate 19b-4 battles. On the flip side, tokens that don’t meet the bar could be rejected outright.
This would bring structure and predictability to the ETF approval process, rather than the current fragmented approach.
The Commission currently has more than 70 altcoin ETF applications pending decision. Some of these proposals filed their Form 19b-4s several months ago; bypassing that step might not help them now.
However, plenty of lesser-known altcoin proposals are currently unique. Only one company has an AVAX ETF filing, after all. The SEC could enable every issuer to fast-track their own AVAX ETFs.
This streamlined process will increase the Commission’s responsiveness, if nothing else. If one firm catches lightning in a bottle with a unique ETF, other issuers could flesh out this new market in 75 days.

The post Polygon Developers Analyze Bitcoin Solaris’s Dual Layer Blockchain: ‘Technical Breakthrough of 2025’ Advanced Tech appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News
Polygon has led the Layer-2 charge by building fast, scalable solutions on top of Ethereum’s infrastructure. Its rollup models, sidechains, and ZK-based scaling techniques have enabled cheaper transactions and greater speed — without modifying Ethereum itself. But the reliance on bridge mechanics, separate settlement layers, and often complex developer tooling introduces trade-offs.
Now, a different model is getting attention. Bitcoin Solaris, built with dual-layer architecture and an integrated hybrid consensus model, is delivering Ethereum-level programmability and Solana-level performance — without relying on external rollups. With native 10,000 TPS, 2-second finality, and a high-efficiency mining system that works on smartphones, Polygon developers are beginning to take notice — and some are calling it “the technical breakthrough of 2025.”
While Polygon scales Ethereum from the outside, Bitcoin Solaris scales from within. Its system consists of two layers:
Both layers are coordinated by the Helios Consensus Mechanism, which combines all four consensus methods for fast, energy-efficient validation and ordering. The result: finality in 2 seconds, horizontal scalability, and no rollups, bridges, or layer jumps required.
Bridging between Ethereum and its Layer-2 solutions like Polygon still creates points of friction. Users often face delays, higher gas fees when moving assets, and challenges verifying transactions across networks. Developers building on Polygon must also account for syncing issues, cross-layer logic, and the eventual settlement to Ethereum’s mainnet.
Bitcoin Solaris eliminates this complexity. Since smart contracts and base-layer data exist within the same ecosystem — just on different operational layers — developers don’t have to manage bridging logic. Assets are native, execution is instantaneous, and the blockchain itself handles consensus, ordering, and finality in one unified model.
One of Polygon’s strengths is EVM compatibility. But for many builders, the EVM’s limitations around speed and transaction sequencing persist — even on L2.
Bitcoin Solaris delivers its own Solana-compatible smart contract framework, allowing developers to deploy dApps using high-performance, modern tooling. With 10,000 TPS as a baseline and smart contracts processed through PoH-based sequencing, developers can launch apps that scale without bottlenecks or needing external accelerators.
For Polygon devs and others looking for a full breakdown of Bitcoin Solaris’s architecture, check out this in-depth review from Crypto Volt.
Bitcoin Solaris mirrors Bitcoin’s hard cap — 21 million BTC-S tokens. But instead of relying on fixed PoW distribution or dynamic burns, it has allocated 4.2 million tokens (20%) to a public presale.
The presale is currently in Phase 2, with tokens priced at 2 USDT. When this phase ends, the price increases to 3 USDTin Phase 3. There are no lockups, tiers, or hidden mechanics. Just clean distribution in line with the project’s technical rollout.
Moreover, Bitcoin Solaris has passed independent audits from top-tier firms and includes full identity verification:
All smart contract logic and consensus mechanisms are public and verifiable.
Polygon pushed Ethereum’s capabilities forward — but Bitcoin Solaris may be redefining how scaling is handled entirely. By embedding throughput, consensus, and mining directly into its core design, it removes the need for external layers, cross-chain tooling, and validator exclusivity.
For developers seeking true scalability, fast execution, and user inclusion in one chain, Bitcoin Solaris presents a compelling next step.

The post Ripple Puts $5 Million More into Blockchain Research in Asia-Pacific appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News
Ripple is stepping up its commitment to blockchain research and talent development in the Asia-Pacific (APAC) region. The company has announced a new round of funding worth over $5 million to universities across six countries through its University Blockchain Research Initiative (UBRI).
This money is part of Ripple’s big push to get more people to understand and use blockchain technology in real life.
APAC has become a hot spot for digital finance and innovation. With countries like Japan, South Korea, Singapore, and Australia leading the way in fintech, Ripple sees huge potential in investing here.
Many of these countries already have friendly rules and a strong community of developers and startups, making it the perfect place to test and build new blockchain ideas.
In South Korea, Yonsei University will get $1.1 million from Ripple. This money will help them study new ways to use blockchain in finance and technology. In Japan, Ripple has given $1.5 million to Kyoto University and the University of Tokyo to help their students learn more about blockchain.
Meanwhile, in Singapore, Ripple’s support has grown to more than $3 million across Nanyang Technological University and the National University of Singapore.
Ripple isn’t stopping there. In Taiwan, Ripple is working with the National Kaohsiung University of Science and Technology. They want to find out how to use blockchain to create tokens for real-world things, like art or buildings.
Australia has also seen Ripple deepen its partnerships, with $1.3 million now spread across the Australian National University and Victoria University.
This new funding comes just weeks after Ripple pledged $25 million to help teachers in the U.S. access better resources. Earlier this year, Ripple also launched a nonprofit called the National Cryptocurrency Association to boost crypto education in the country, with plans to provide $50 million in funding.
However, this growing development will have a bullish impact on Ripple native XRP, which is currently trading around $2.28 reflecting a jump of 2% seen in the last 24 hours, with a market cap hitting $2.94 billion.
