Ripple CEO expects XRP ETF to launch by 2025, following legal victory and growing market interest in the token.
XRP’s price fluctuates significantly, with net inflows driving price increases, highlighted by a recent peak in early 2025.
Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse is positive about the future of XRP, predicting the launch of an XRP exchange-traded fund (ETF) by the end of 2025.
This projection, which ETHNews noted, comes after Ripple’s legal victory over the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), marking a possible turning point for the cryptocurrency. Alongside the ETF, Garlinghouse also discussed the possibility of a Ripple Labs initial public offering (IPO).

Garlinghouse pointed to an important development involving the U.S. government’s proposed digital asset stockpile. Following an executive order by President Donald Trump, which formalized a strategic reserve for digital assets, XRP is expected to be part of the nation’s digital asset reserve, positioning it as a key asset in the U.S. economic landscape.
Garlinghouse’s comments also highlighted the anticipated launch of an XRP ETF, which he expects to occur by the end of 2025. This forecast is supported by a growing number of XRP-related exchange-traded products (ETPs) gaining approval in markets outside the United States.
Notable firms, including Bitwise and Franklin Templeton, have submitted ETF applications to the SEC, contributing to the belief surrounding the approval process. Garlinghouse anticipates a wave of ETF approvals in the second half of 2025, marking a step forward for XRP’s mainstream adoption.
