The crypto world is abuzz with excitement as Bloomberg analysts have dramatically raised the probability of a U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) approval for an XRP spot ETF to an astonishing 95%. This significant jump in approval odds, up from earlier estimates of around 75%, is attributed to the SEC’s increased engagement with ETF applicants and its recognition of XRP as a commodity.
The crypto community is eagerly discussing the potential implications of an XRP spot ETF approval, including increased institutional adoption and broader regulatory breakthroughs. According to Bloomberg’s James Seyffart and Eric Balchunas, the SEC’s unprecedented level of engagement with altcoin ETFs suggests a likely shift in regulatory strategy, with most altcoins being treated as commodities rather than securities.
XRP now leads the ETF race, ahead of other major cryptocurrencies such as Solana, Litecoin, Cardano, Dogecoin, Avalanche, Hedera, and Polkadot. Analysts predict that these digital assets also have high chances (90-95%) of securing spot ETF approvals in 2025.
