A belief and an ETF are two completely different funding merchandise. An ETF should be authorised by the Securities and Alternate Fee since it’s marketed on to retail buyers, whereas a belief’s construction and gross sales pitch to so-called accredited buyers will get a lighter regulatory contact.

The self-proclaimed “XRP Army” – retail buyers who personal the XRP token – have been ready for an asset supervisor like Grayscale or BlackRock to file an software for an XRP ETF following the launches of the bitcoin and ether merchandise, in addition to a handful of latest purposes for a Solana ETF. Solana is the No. 5 crypto by market cap, whereas XRP clocks in at No. 7.

Making issues extra unsure for the XRP crowd – and a possible spot XRP ETF – has been how Wall Avenue’s prime cop, the SEC, views the regulatory standing of the token. The SEC is embroiled in an extended and contentious authorized battle with Ripple, which it sued in 2020 for failing to register gross sales of XRP with the fee as a safety.
