XRP ETFs in 2025 – Are We on the Brink of a Breakthrough?
XRP enthusiasts, the ETF landscape is heating up! As of today, only one XRP Exchange-Traded Fund (ETF) has crossed the finish line: Brazil’s Hashdex XRP ETF, approved and gearing up to trade on the B3 exchange. It’s a groundbreaking win for Ripple’s cryptocurrency, proving XRP’s global appeal. But what about the U.S., the world’s largest financial market? Let’s break it down.
In the United States, no XRP ETFs have been approved—yet. The SEC has a stack of applications under review, including heavy hitters like Bitwise (filed October 2024), Grayscale (January 2025), and Franklin Templeton (March 2025). Each is locked in a 240-day review period, meaning approvals could stretch into late 2025. Bitwise, the earliest filer, might see a decision by October, but some XRP fans on X speculate an earlier green light—possibly April—depending on regulatory winds.
Why the delay? The SEC’s cautious stance on crypto ETFs, paired with Ripple’s past legal battles, keeps the process slow. Still, the flood of filings from firms like 21Shares, WisdomTree, and ProShares signals growing confidence in XRP’s future. These ETFs aim to offer investors a regulated way to tap into XRP’s potential without directly holding the coin—a game-changer for mainstream adoption.
Globally, Brazil’s Hashdex ETF sets a precedent, showing regulators can embrace XRP. For U.S. investors, it’s a waiting game, but the momentum is undeniable. With each filing, XRP edges closer to Wall Street’s spotlight.
