In a recent interview with Bloomberg Crypto, Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse expressed optimism about the future of XRP, suggesting that the cryptocurrency could be included in the U.S. government’s digital asset reserve and anticipating the approval of an XRP exchange-traded fund (ETF) within the year.
Ripple’s Legal Victory and Market Implications
Garlinghouse’s projections follow Ripple’s recent legal victory against the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), which had accused the company of conducting an unregistered securities offering. The dismissal of this case has removed a significant regulatory hurdle, potentially paving the way for financial institutions to explore XRP-based investment vehicles.
Speculation Surrounding BlackRock’s Involvement
The possibility of BlackRock, a leading asset management firm, collaborating with Ripple to launch an XRP ETF has been a topic of discussion within the crypto community. Analyst Nate Geraci has predicted that firms like BlackRock and Fidelity may soon enter the XRP ETF market, especially in light of Ripple’s legal clarity.

Market Reactions and Future Outlook
The potential for an XRP ETF has garnered attention from investors and market analysts. Following the resolution of Ripple’s legal challenges, there is a growing belief that the path is now clearer for such financial products. Garlinghouse’s confidence in XRP’s inclusion in the U.S. digital asset reserve and the anticipated ETF approval reflect a broader trend of increasing institutional interest in cryptocurrencies.
As the regulatory environment evolves and major financial players consider entering the crypto space, the coming months could be pivotal for XRP and its stakeholders.
