XRP ETF Fever Hits the U.S.: 21Shares Throws Its Hat in the SEC Ring

Imagine a gladiator stepping into the arena. 21Shares just filed for a spot XRP ETF with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, kicking off a 20-day review that everyone in crypto town is watching like a hawk.

According to Bloomberg’s oracle Eric Balchunas, this move is a loud “Hey, we mean business” from institutional investors hungry for XRP’s slice of the pie.

Retail and institutional investors are flooding in

XRP’s price reacted like it just heard its favorite song on the radio, jumping a solid 5% straight after the announcement.

That’s some serious momentum, signaling that the market smells something big brewing.

If the ETF gets the green light, market analysts say expect XRP’s price to dance even harder.

Welcome to the next chapter in the story of crypto ETFs. Bitcoin and Ethereum already blazed the trail, both saw impressive growth in price and trading volume after their ETF approvals.

It’s like the crypto version of opening night on Broadway, with retail and institutional investors flooding in to grab tickets.

Downtrend drama

Current stats keep the story juicy, as analysts highlighted, in the time of writing XRP clocks in at $2.32 with a market cap tickling $139 billion and a lively 10.47% jump in 24-hour trading volume.

The circulating supply stands tall at over 60 billion coins, owning just above 4% of the crypto market’s limelight.

Even amid the last 90 days’ overall downtrend drama, XRP shows it’s still got fire.

Faster ETF rollouts?

And luckily, experts say the plot thickens around regulatory vibes too. They say if the SEC nods at 21Shares, it could burst open the doors for more crypto ETFs to flood the market.

The SEC seems to have ditched its usual delaying tactics, hinting that they might just speed things up during this quieter period. That means smoother, faster ETF rollouts are on the horizon.

This moment is like an epic crossroads, will XRP join the elite ETF club and send the market into overdrive, or will regulatory dragons breathe fire, scorning the bid? For now, all eyes, and wallets, are on the SEC’s verdict.
