XRP ETFs Hit $1.21B as Asset Managers Look Beyond Bitcoin
XRP-linked #ETFs have now reached $1.21 billion in assets, signaling that institutional investors are actively exploring a “third path” beyond Bitcoin and Ethereum. This isn’t about replacing $BTC it’s about diversification within crypto exposure.
For asset managers, $XRP represents something structurally different. It’s tied to payments, liquidity rails, and cross-border settlement rather than store-of-value or smart contract narratives. That makes it attractive as a complementary allocation, not a competing one.
The growth also reflects a broader shift: institutions are no longer treating crypto as a single trade. They’re slicing exposure by use case, risk profile, and macro sensitivity.
Bitcoin opened the door.
Ethereum expanded the room.
XRP is becoming part of the furniture.
This is what maturation looks like quieter, more selective, and driven by portfolio construction, not hype.
