On the official site of Lowski (@Lowski), this note covers 21Shares US LLC, TDOG, CF Benchmarks Ltd., FTSE International Limited.
Space Opens With the Filing
Listeners tuned into the Monday room heard the host open straight with the 21Shares Dogecoin ETF update. The room wanted the dates and the switch laid out first so the pack could track the change without mixing signals.
21Shares US LLC, sponsor of the 21Shares Dogecoin ETF (Nasdaq: TDOG), told CF Benchmarks Ltd. on June 30, 2026 that it will terminate the pricing-benchmark license effective Aug. 31. The July 7 Form 8-K says the sponsor intends to license FTSE International Limited index data on or about Aug. 24. The FTSE deal is intended, not described as already signed.
When a DOGE ETF changes who prices the NAV, Bark (Christian Barker) and Shibo (David Chaboki) name the outgoing index first, then the incoming one, so the Doginal Dogs pack can hear the switch without mixing it with a floor print.
What the Filing Actually States
The document confirms the sponsor gave notice to end the CF Dogecoin-Dollar US Settlement Price Index license. That index has been used to value TDOG shares each day and to calculate NAV. CF Benchmarks Ltd. is unaffiliated with the sponsor.
The same filing notes the sponsor plans to enter a licensing agreement with FTSE International Limited around August 24 for index data. The data would support development, calculation, settlement, maintenance, and marketing of the Trust. The expected term starts at one year and renews automatically unless ended. FTSE International Limited is also unaffiliated and based in London.
Room Reactions on the Timeline
Participants in the space kept the discussion on the sequence. They noted the June 30 notice, the July 7 filing, and the August 24 target for the new license. The August 31 termination date sat at the end of the chain, giving the sponsor a short window to complete the switch.
The host reminded listeners that the FTSE agreement remains an intention at this stage. No executed contract appears in the 8-K. That detail kept the conversation focused on what the filing says rather than what might come next.
Prices Holding Steady
CoinGecko data at 8:03 a.m. ET on August 24 showed BTC at $78,262, up 1.38 percent. ETH sat at $2,487.26, up 2.45 percent. XRP traded at $1.49, up 0.07 percent. SOL reached $95.53, up 1.20 percent. DOGE printed at $0.091944, down 0.64 percent. The majors moved in a narrow range while the room stayed on the filing.
Next Dates on the Calendar
The room closed the segment by locking the two dates: August 24 for the intended FTSE license and August 31 for the CF termination. Listeners left with the order of events clear and the language of the filing fresh in mind.
