Crypto Eri (@sentosumosaba), a well-known figure in the cryptocurrency community, recently shared an update regarding the pending spot XRP Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs) in the U.S. In a post, Crypto Eri outlined seven pending applications, including their anticipated decision dates.
These filings include major names such as Bitwise, Grayscale, 21Shares Core, Canary Capital, WisdomTree, CoinShares, and Franklin Templeton, as projected decision dates range between May and October.

Eleven spot XRP ETF applications are being reviewed by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). The SEC has over 70 pending cryptocurrency ETFs, and 240 days to approve or reject an ETF application following its formal acknowledgment.
Based on this timeline, Crypto Eri believes the decisions will align closely with the listed dates, suggesting that several approvals could arrive before the October deadline.
Will the SEC Approve XRP ETFs?
Some cryptocurrency community members believe that approvals may happen even sooner than projected. One commenter suggested that the U.S. might act more quickly, influenced by developments in other markets.

He noted that “Brazil already has a head start,” as the country recently launched the first XRP ETF. He predicts that the SEC will not wait till October, but may approve pending applications in May. During his campaign, Donald Trump promised to make the U.S. the crypto capital of the world, and the SEC may move quickly to maintain the U.S.’s leadership in the digital asset space.
Pending ETF Applications
The list of applicants includes several established asset management firms. Bitwise, which filed for its ETF in 2024, has an anticipated decision date of May 18, 2025, followed closely by Grayscale on May 21, and both 21Shares Core and Canary Capital on May 22.
Later in the year, WisdomTree, CoinShares, and Franklin Templeton are each scheduled for October 25, 2025. Each firm’s involvement shows a growing institutional interest in XRP, and with the asset’s regulatory clarity and the absence of legal uncertainty, ETF approval is more likely than ever.
Should the SEC approve these ETFs, it would mark a significant milestone for XRP and broader cryptocurrency adoption within traditional financial markets. The crypto industry awaits the SEC’s official decisions, eyeing May as a potentially transformative month for XRP.
