The recent spot approval Ethereum ETF by the SEC has sparked discussions about the possibility of similar investment vehicles for other cryptocurrencies. Among competitors, XRP stands out, with speculation surrounding the potential launch of an XRP exchange-traded fund in the United States next year.
However, opinions within the XRP community are divided on the issue. A recent survey conducted on a social network revealed that 66.1% of respondents think there will be a XRP ETF in 2025, while 33.9% disagree.
Some community members are expressing enthusiasm for the prospect of an XRP ETF, anticipating increased institutional investment and wider adoption of the token. They argue that such a development could have a positive impact on the dynamics of the XRP market.
Conversely, skeptics, notably personalities XRP Enthusiast Bill Morgan questions the need for an ETF for XRP. They argue that the value of the token should be determined by its utility and widespread adoption as a means of payment, rather than reliance on institutional investment.

Morgan’s skepticism reflects a broader debate within the XRP community regarding the token’s future trajectory. While some believe an ETF could strengthen XRP’s position in the market, others argue that it contradicts the token’s intended role as a global currency, which should be freely traded.
As discussions continue, it remains uncertain whether an XRP ETF will materialize in 2025. The question remains: would an ETF truly be beneficial for XRP, or does its value lie in a completely different trajectory?
