Is Ripple ETF on the way?
Ripple's Heylords expect the future offering of this product to help get Ripple's ETFs approved by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). They believe that the launch of Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs this year indicates that it is possible to launch similar funds for other digital assets.
However, Nate Geraci, head of the ETF store, pointed out that the approval of ETFs also requires some political support, and pointed out that this path may not be so simple.
In addition, Ripple's legal battle with the SEC could pose challenges to its ETF offering. Some analysts believe that it is unlikely that the US Securities and Exchange Commission will approve another ETF under the current conditions.
Others believe that if the regulators do not classify digital currencies as securities, the probability of approval of the Ripple ETF will increase.
