Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse predicts XRP ETFs will launch by 2025, citing Bitcoin and Ethereum ETF precedents

In an interview with Fox Business, Brad Garlinghouse (via CoinGape), CEO of Ripple, shared his perspective on potential future cryptocurrency developments, such as the launch of XRP ETFs.

His predictions are based on the recent introduction of Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs; therefore, there is a high probability that by 2025, other cryptocurrencies, including XRP, will also have ETFs.

Brad Garlinghouse’s latest statements come amid growing speculation and questions regarding the potential launch of the XRP ETF. During the interview, he stated: “It’s only a matter of time and the emergence of an XRP ETF is inevitable.”

Given the recent approval of Ethereum ETFs, he is confident that XRP will be authorized soon. He also discussed the potential for XRP to be included in cryptocurrency ETFs, suggesting that the investment opportunities are not limited to Bitcoin and Ethereum.

Ripple’s CEO also addressed the need for a clear legal framework, which he deemed essential for the development and acceptance of cryptocurrency ETFs. Garlinghouse explains that the potential of cryptocurrencies will remain profitable provided the right regulatory environment is created. He stressed the importance of regulators’ ability to adapt and expand as the market expands, suggesting that effective regulation would significantly increase the likelihood of an XRP ETF being created.

Regulatory clarity key for XRP ETFs, Ripple and industry leaders urge SEC to review regulatory framework amid regulatory challenges

The broader context of cryptocurrency regulation in the United States is inextricably linked to the discussion about XRP ETFs. Ripple and other prominent figures in the cryptocurrency industry such as Grayscale and Coinbase have urged the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to adopt a more lenient regulatory approach. Their goal is to persuade the SEC to review its regulatory framework to adapt it to the current state of the digital asset market.

The legal challenges faced by Ripple, which recently faced a major SEC lawsuit over improper practices in selling XRP to institutional investors, are partly responsible for its push for regulatory transparency. This lawsuit highlights the complexities and uncertainties surrounding cryptocurrency regulation in the United States, which could impact the feasibility and timing of the launch of XRP ETFs.

XRP price and trading volume surge amid speculation over ETF approval and regulatory progress

Throughout these discussions, the XRP price has been on a favorable trajectory, oscillating between a 24-hour high of $0.53 and a low of $0.5185.

At press time, XRP was trading at $0.5254, up 0.92% from the support level.

At the same time, XRP’s 24-hour trading volume and market capitalization increased by 6.43% and 0.92%, respectively, to $1,161,873,100 and $29,127,941,177.
