Crypto pundit Bale has suggested that XRP is positioned for a significant breakthrough once spot exchange-traded funds (ETFs) begin receiving approvals.
In a recent post, Bale stated that “XRP will have a monumental moment when listed companies will buy XRP and shift from Bitcoin. This will happen when Spot ETFs start getting approved. It’s inevitable.”
The comment reflects an expectation that institutional players could move away from Bitcoin dominance once additional investment vehicles are made available.

Community Reactions to the Prediction
The post attracted comments from other X users who echoed Bale’s outlook. Leonie, responding to the statement, wrote that the prediction was accurate, explaining that institutional money could shift once spot ETFs receive approval.
According to her, XRP could become a preferred option for listed companies looking to diversify their crypto holdings away from Bitcoin. Another user, Just Jerryl, added that spot ETF approval could serve as a strong catalyst for XRP. He noted that such a development has the potential to drive significant market activity, describing it as an opportunity with “huge potential.”
Growing Conviction on XRP ETF Approval
Recent data from prediction markets supports the optimism expressed by Bale and others. According to a report from Times Tabloid, blockchain-based prediction platform Polymarket currently assigns a 94% probability that an XRP spot ETF will be approved in the United States before the end of 2025.
The platform’s odds highlight a substantial increase in confidence compared to the beginning of the year, when expectations for approval remained in the low double digits.
This surge in probability illustrates the shift in market sentiment throughout 2025. In the earlier part of the year, skepticism persisted about whether the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) would authorize such products.
However, the steady climb from lower odds into the 70%–90% range reflects changing perceptions, which now stand at near certainty according to Polymarket.
The rising conviction on an XRP ETF is tied to broader developments in the digital asset sector. Approval of Bitcoin and Ethereum spot ETFs has contributed to greater confidence that additional cryptocurrencies will receive similar treatment.
This trend has not only opened the door to mainstream investment products but also increased speculation that XRP could be among the next digital assets to gain approval.

If spot ETFs receive approval, many believe that XRP could emerge as a viable alternative to Bitcoin for companies diversifying their portfolios. The rising market odds for ETF approval reinforce the notion that such a development may not be far off.
