XRP ETF — that's an interesting and very current topic!

As of now (late April 2025), there is no officially launched XRP ETF in the U.S. yet, though there's a lot of buzz about it. The idea is that, just like Bitcoin ETFs (which have been approved and launched, like the BlackRock and Fidelity Bitcoin ETFs), XRP could also have an ETF, meaning investors could buy XRP exposure through traditional stock markets without needing to own XRP directly.

A few key points:

After the SEC vs. Ripple lawsuit mostly wrapped up (Ripple scored some big wins in 2023), the environment for XRP has become much more favorable.

There are rumors and some filings suggesting companies are preparing to launch an XRP spot ETF, but the SEC hasn't officially approved one yet.

Analysts believe an XRP ETF could follow the Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs once those markets mature and if XRP is further recognized as not a security.

Ripple's CEO (Brad Garlinghouse) has hinted in interviews that Ripple would support an XRP ETF.

Would you like me to quickly check if there's been any breaking news in the last few days about an XRP ETF application? Things are moving fast in 2025.
