The post BlackRock and Fidelity Poised to Enter XRP ETF Race After Ripple’s Legal Win appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News
Nate Geraci, a leading ETF analyst, forecasts that BlackRock and Fidelity will soon join the XRP ETF race, with approval expected to happen soon. His optimism stems from the resolution of Ripple’s legal battle with the U.S. SEC.
Ripple’s Win Clears Path for XRP ETF
Stuart Alderoty, Ripple’s top lawyer, revealed that the company successfully reduced its fine from $125 million to just $50 million, down from the SEC’s initial $2 billion demand. Additionally, the injunction against Ripple is expected to be lifted at the SEC’s request.
After four grueling years, experts say the way is now clear for an XRP exchange-traded fund (ETF) in the U.S. In a latest X post, Geraci noted “Seems obvious spot XRP ETF approval simply matter of time IMO. And yes, I expect BlackRock, Fidelity, etc to all be involved.”
He also highlighted that XRP is currently the third-largest non-stablecoin cryptocurrency by market cap, making it a significant player in the market. And given its size and growing interest, the largest ETF issuers, such as BlackRock and Fidelity, are unlikely to overlook the potential of launching an XRP ETF.
While the SEC has been cautious about approving altcoin ETFs, Geraci believes the agency will eventually approve them. He also highlighted the ongoing debate about whether broad crypto index ETFs or single-asset ETFs will lead the market. Despite expecting the SEC to set limits on approvals, Geraci remains optimistic about the growth of these financial products.
BlackRock To Partner With Ripple?
In a recent Bloomberg interview, Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse was asked about collaborating with BlackRock to launch an XRP ETF in the U.S. While Garlinghouse didn’t confirm the partnership, he sparked speculation by stating, “We think it makes sense for the XRP community overall”.
Many believe that once Ripple’s regulatory issues are resolved, asset managers will quickly move to launch an XRP ETF later in the year. Further Ripple CEO is also confident that XRP will join the U.S. Digital Asset stockpile.
Increasing Odds of XRP ETF Approval
Meanwhile, Polymarket, a decentralized prediction platform, shows an 84% chance of XRP ETF approval in 2025. With industry experts closely monitoring XRP’s price, many anticipate a potential breakout to $3 soon, signaling a promising future for the token.
