Regulators could unlock $ 5B XRP ETF flood as demand grows in silence
Nate Geraci, a prominent voice in ETF markets and cryptocurrencies, has reiterated its belief that the demand for funds (ETF) based on XRP -based exchanges is underestimating significantly. Drawing comparisons with the initial underestimation of Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFS, Geraci argues that the market has not yet fully understood the potential for institutional and retail interest in XRP ETF products. It points out the recent increase in ETF entries in Ethereum as a precedent of how the feeling of investors can change quickly once a market opens to the regulated exposure to cryptography. [4].
This feeling is supported by the recent presentations of the SEC and the growing institutional interest in XRP -related products. Amplify, a company that manages $ 12.6 billion in assets, has submitted a proposal for an ETF of XRP option income to be listed in the CBOE BZX exchange. The fund will not have XRP directly, but will seek to generate performance by writing options in ETF XRP and using synthetic exposure strategies [3]. This presentation highlights the evolutionary panorama of cryptographic ETF structures, with investors seeking indirect exposure through derived options and strategies to mitigate operational risks and operational risks [3].
The growing number of ETF applications underlines a broader trend in the market. From the latest data, 16 ETF XRP applications are pending with the SEC, including the offers of the main players such as Grayscale, 21Shares, Canary and Franklin Templeton. In addition, there are at least 96 total ETF presentations related to the crypto [3]. Analysts such as James Seyffart have noticed that the October deadline of the SEC is a key approach, with the expectations that multiple proposals can be approved at that time.
Geraci’s predictions are aligned with the widest industry’s trend, as seen in the performance of ETF of Ethereum Spot. These products have surpassed their Bitcoin counterparts in recent weeks, with Etfs Ethereum attracting $ 307 million in net tickets only in one day. In the last two weeks, the ETFs of Ethereum have attracted $ 1.83 billion in total tickets compared to only $ 171 million for Bitcoin ETF. The Blackrock Etha product, for example, received $ 262.6 million in a single day, highlighting the change in investor preference to Ethereum and, potentially, other alternatives [4].
While Bitcoin remains the dominant narrative in cryptographic markets, the impulse on Ethereum and XRP ETF suggests diversification in the interest of investors. The success of the Bitcoin and Ethereum ETF has demonstrated the institutional adoption potential, and analysts believe that a similar pattern could occur for XRP if the SEC approves an ETF spot. Institutional access to a regulated ETF XRP would open the door for pension funds, asset administrators and other large investors, which could lead to an increase in demand and liquidity [2].
The market is closely observing how the SEC manages these presentations and if the regulatory panorama will change even more in favor of spot crypto ETF. Geraci has noticed that gates for cryptographic ETF seem to be opening, with greater presentations and interest of investors that drive the impulse. As more applications are presented and the regulatory environment evolves, the potential that XRP ETFs attract a substantial demand remains a key point of conversation between investors and market analysts alike equal [1].
