đșđžđš U.S. Government Shutdown Could #freeze $XRP ETF Dreams
The U.S. just hit a government shutdown, and while Wall Street shrugs⊠crypto might not. đ
đïž Why It Matters for XRP
The SEC is running on skeleton staff.
That means ETF approvals including XRP, SOL, ADA, DOGE, and LTC could be stuck in limbo.
The much-hyped âETF-toberâ may turn into a waiting game.
đ Stocks vs. Crypto
History shows shutdowns donât crash stocks.
2013? S&P 500 went up 3%.
2018â2019? It rallied 10%+.
But crypto is a different beast.
Traders treat it as a risk-on, liquid escape hatch, which means shutdown drama = volatility spikes.
đž Billions on Hold
Infrastructure is ready.
Wall Street is ready.
Crypto investors are ready.
But until Congress stops bickering, billions in ETF inflows are frozen.
So now the question is:
đ Will political gridlock block XRPâs ETF debut?
đ Or will âUptoberâ find a way to pump through the noise?
