XRP ETF Speculation Intensifies as SEC Approves Grayscale FundJuly 3, 2025XRP is making waves on X following reports from TheMarketPeriodical.com that the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has accepted 19b-4 filings for XRP exchange-traded fund (ETF) proposals, with a final decision expected by October 17, 2025. The recent approval of Grayscale’s ETF under the Securities Act of 1933, which includes XRP alongside Solana (SOL) and Cardano (ADA), has fueled speculation about a standalone XRP spot ETF. Expert Geraci noted on X that this development could pave the way for individual spot ETFs, stating, “XRP, SOL, and ADA are now part of the 1933 Act ETF. See where this is heading?”XRP’s price has risen to $2.22, up 1.86% in the last 24 hours, with a daily trading volume of $4.07 billion, according to AnalyticsInsight.net. The resolution of the SEC’s four-year lawsuit against Ripple in 2025, following a 2023 court ruling that XRP’s retail sales are not securities transactions, has bolstered its market position. X users are buzzing about XRP’s potential to bridge traditional banking and blockchain, especially as Ripple applies for a national bank charter in the U.S. Investors are closely watching upcoming ETF decisions, with VanEck’s Avalanche (AVAX) ETF deadline on July 25 and Franklin Templeton’s SOL and XRP proposals due by July 31.
