XRP ETF Filing Soon?
In the midst of widespread expectation around the Bitcoin ETF approval before the January 10, 2024 deadline, speculation is around in the crypto community that an application for the XRP ETF would soon be filed with the US SEC. According to a screenshot shared by crypto influencer Jack The Rippler, An XRP ETP on Fidelity and the XRP ETF are coming soon. The ETP with the name Amun Ripple AXRP ETP is shown to be registered with Fidelity, according to the screenshot.
While the US SEC and Ripple, the company behind the altcoin, have a long legal history with Ripple lawsuit, the regulatory standpoint is currently in favor of the company thanks to the summary judgment by judge Analisa Torres. The judge had in July 2023 ruled that the sale of XRP tokens to retail buyers does not qualify as securities assets. This is based on this ruling that the ETF applicants are reportedly confident of a chance of approval from the US SEC, considering that the likes of Blackrock, Van Eck, Fidelity, Bitwise and Valkyrie get the Bitcoin ETF nod around January 10.
ETF Filing In April 2024?
XRP whale, a popular X account among the community, said that an ETF application could come in the month of April while the ETF would be launched before the end of 2024. Although such a move could likely be significantly bullish for the crypto ecosystem considering an existing Bitcoin ETF, there has not been any official communication around this from any potential issuers.
The XRP Price, meanwhile, did not show much positive momentum in the last few weeks, compared to Bitcoin (BTC) Price, which had one point reached the $45,000 mark.
