Is BlackRock Going Into XRP? This Ripple Move Could Be The Game-Changer
The world's largest asset manager, BlackRock, has not yet filed for a spot XRP ETF, but evidence suggests it may be moving closer to that step. While the firm has successfully launched Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs, it remains cautious about expanding into other cryptocurrencies. According to Robert Mitchnick, BlackRock's Head of Digital Assets, the company is actively evaluating digital assets based on maturity, liquidity, scale, and use cases. XRP already meets many of these criteria with its deep liquidity, large market cap, and clear use case in payments and tokenized assets. Although other investment firms like Canary and Grayscale have already launched XRP ETFs, BlackRock has not yet signaled its approval. Canary Capital CEO Steven McClurg predicts BlackRock could file for a Spot XRP ETF by late 2026 or 2027, once net inflows reach around $3 billion.
