XRP News: Institutions Buy $145 Million XRP Coin

Surprisingly, XRP continues to witness high inflows amid institutional demand. The odds for XRP ETF launch in the U.S. have increased significantly due to Donald Trump’s crypto-friendly administration and SEC Chair Gary’s resignation. Bitwise, 21Shares, Canary Capital and WisdomTree have filed applications, seeking approval from the U.S. SEC.

In addition, the crypto community is positive about the end of Ripple vs SEC lawsuit after Gensler’s exit. The government agency will file its principal brief by January 15. Some believe Gensler can bring issues for Ripple similar to Binance recently. Ripple CLO Stuart Alderoty slammed Gensler for using the same failed arguments in Binance lawsuit.

Rise in Demand For Bitcoin, Ethereum, and XRP

Bitcoin and Ethereum investment products continue to see rising demand as prices rally. BTC price hit a new all-time high of nearly $106,500 today. Ethereum price also broke above $4000 level momentarily, before sliding to the $3900 level.

Other countries such as Switzerland, Germany, Canada and Australia are also witnessing a rise in inflows. As per the report, “Blockchain equities saw inflows of US$124m, the largest since January this year, driven by growing investor confidence in improving Bitcoin miner margins.”
