The cryptocurrency market continues to evolve as spot ETFs gain traction, signaling a new phase in institutional adoption. Following the successful launch of Litecoin (LTC) and Hedera (HBAR) ETFs, has now turned his attention to XRP ETF, offering a strong indication that an ETF tied to the digital asset may arrive very soon.
XRP ETF Expected to Launch Next Week
Speaking at the Ripple Swell conference, McClurg revealed that the wait for an XRP ETF might soon be over. He confidently stated,
“We are ready to launch the XRP ETF next week.”
The announcement sparked considerable excitement within the XRP community and across the broader crypto market. Analysts suggest this development could mark the next major milestone in the expansion of altcoin-based ETFs, following the footsteps of Bitcoin and Ethereum products that reshaped investor access to the digital asset space.
McClurg emphasized that the introduction of XRP ETFs is not only a win for XRP investors but also a significant step forward for the institutional integration of the crypto industry.
XRP: The Next Wall Street Favorite
According to McClurg, XRP is on track to become the second most recognized cryptocurrency on Wall Street, right after Bitcoin. He noted that institutional interest in XRP has been rapidly accelerating and projected that within just 30 days of launch, the XRP ETF could attract as much as $5 billion in institutional inflows.
“XRP’s real-world utility and its strong community support could make this ETF one of the most successful launches in crypto history,” McClurg stated, underscoring the asset’s long-term potential in regulated financial markets.
Institutional Momentum Grows
McClurg also drew comparisons between XRP and Ethereum ETFs, highlighting that XRP’s structural simplicity could offer an advantage. Unlike Ethereum, XRP doesn’t rely on staking mechanisms, which means ETF investors won’t miss out on potential yields or face related complications.
As the market anticipates this launch, industry observers see XRP ETFs as a pivotal moment for altcoins — signaling not just diversification in ETF offerings, but a broader validation of crypto’s role in mainstream finance.
