Why is the launch of LTC and XRP ETFs controversial

Don’t get me wrong, cryptocurrency investment trends are exciting, but the launch of LTC and XRP ETFs? That doesn’t make much sense. Why? Let me explain.

1. Regulatory storm looming

$XRP is still embroiled in a long legal battle with the SEC. Anyone following this saga knows that the regulatory environment surrounding $XRP is like a ticking time bomb. One wrong decision and the ETF could be in trouble from day one. And while Litecoin doesn’t have that much legal baggage, the general uncertainty surrounding cryptocurrencies doesn’t guarantee calm waters for it either.

2. Unclear classification

Litecoin is considered a commodity, which gives the ETF a slightly better chance of approval. However, $XRP is secured as a security asset, which complicates its approval. This ambiguity in classification adds another layer of uncertainty that investors should consider.

3. Market Volatility and Reaction

Crypto markets are notoriously volatile. Imagine the SEC coming up with new regulations or Ripple losing its case. The market could experience sharp fluctuations, and ETFs, which were supposed to be stable investment vehicles, could instead introduce significant risk.
