🌕 During the festival, favourable information emerges, and XRP welcomes a historic moment! — A brief discussion on the launch of REX-Osprey XRP ETF (XRPR)

📈 First reaction: unexpected, yet reasonable! Seeing the news that the XRP spot ETF (XRPR) is about to launch, my first feeling is "it's finally here"! Although it's a bit later than Bitcoin and Ethereum, considering XRP's previous victory in the lawsuit against the U.S. SEC and its clear non-security status, it actually isn’t surprising that it becomes one of the first non-Bitcoin/Ethereum cryptocurrencies to have a spot ETF. This means that compliant channels are further opening up and indicates that institutions' acceptance of crypto assets is spreading from "leading" to "core ecosystem assets".

⚡ Short-term impact: Increased volatility, but liquidity is expected to improve. In the short term, the launch of XRPR is likely to boost market sentiment and lead to price fluctuations. Referring to the trends observed during the previous Bitcoin ETF approval, there may be a pattern of "speculative hype → favourable information realization pullback → institutional funds gradually building positions." However, the more important point is that these types of products provide traditional investors with low-threshold, compliant XRP exposure, which is expected to significantly increase funding inflow channels and enhance overall market depth and liquidity stability.

🔍 Looking at XRP through BTC/ETH ETF: Perhaps more potential than imagined. Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs have proven the immense capital-absorbing capability of such products – BlackRock's IBIT has already exceeded 10 billion USD in scale. Although XRP has a smaller market cap than the first two, its practical value in cross-border payments and the banking system, along with a relatively low price threshold, may attract a group of institutional investors who are optimistic about the "real application narrative" but are unwilling to hold cryptocurrencies directly. Moreover, being the first XRP spot ETF, its first-mover advantage could make it a new focus for capital.

However, it is important to remain calm and observe; the initial scale of the new product may not explode immediately, and we need to monitor the subsequent institutional subscription situation and market share distribution. But there is no doubt that this is a key step for XRP to move towards the mainstream financial world.

🎯 Summary: Pay attention to volatility risks in the short term, but remain optimistic about the acceleration of institutional capital entry in the long term. If you are a long-term holder of XRP, this is undoubtedly a piece of favourable information worth noting; if you are a trader, please be prepared to cope with volatile market conditions. From an industry perspective, the diversification of cryptocurrency spot ETFs represents a more solid progression toward maturity in this field.
