The Delaware trust business Bitwise Asset Management has registered as well as applied to become an exchange-traded fund. This move is consistent with the practice of respectable companies, such as Bitwise, creating trust corporations prior to submitting ETF applications.
Hence, this move indicates that Bitwise may be preparing for a future XRP ETF launch. While political factors play a role, the broader trend suggests an inevitable approval of crypto-related ETFs over time.
Moreover, Nate Geraci, CEO of The ETF Store, points out the importance of political support for XRP ETF trading. He emphasizes that without political backing, the SEC may not easily approve such a filing.
A senior ETF expert at Bloomberg named Eric Balchunas remarked that there is “a snowball’s chance in hell” that an approved Solana ETF will be issued. His remark emphasizes the serious difficulties that ETFs that aren’t Ethereum or Bitcoin face under the current SEC leadership.
Bitwise’s move comes amid skepticism about previous XRP ETF rumors. Past claims, including one from November regarding a supposed BlackRock XRP ETF, turned out to be false. Hence, the current filing has attracted attention due to Bitwise’s credibility. A spokesperson confirmed the legitimacy of the filing, reassuring investors that this is a strategic and serious effort.
