Standard Chartered’s Jeffrey Kendrick predicts that Solana (SOL) and XRP (XRP) ETFs will launch in 2025. This follows the SEC’s approval of spot Ethereum ETFs, which has shifted market expectations.
Historically, the approval of these ETFs marks a significant milestone, indicating that the SEC may classify more cryptocurrencies as commodities. A standout feature is the high potential for Bitcoin ETFs to drive Bitcoin prices to $150,000, as institutional adoption grows.
Brad Garlinghouse, Ripple’s CEO, also supports the creation of an XRP ETF, although some experts question its feasibility. The introduction of Solana and XRP ETFs could legitimize digital assets, offering new investment opportunities and attracting traditional investors.
Overall, these developments could shape the future of crypto investments, influenced by regulatory decisions and institutional participation.
