XRP ETFs Listed on DTCC Signal Imminent Launch This Month

Nine potential XRP Spot ETFs have appeared on the Depository Trust and Clearing Corporation (DTCC) list. It hints that the long-awaited launch could happen this month. While the listing doesn’t guarantee U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) approval. It shows that several major firms are ready to move once regulators give the green light.

Nine ETFs Enter the DTCC Pipeline

The news first surfaced on November 10, when analyst Xaif Crypto (@Xaif_Crypto) shared that nine XRP related ETFs were visible on the DTCC’s database. These include products from Bitwise, Canary Capital, CoinShares, Franklin Templeton, Amplify and Volatility Shares. The DTCC listing is a critical pre-launch step that signals operational readiness. 

ETFs often appear here before going live on major exchanges, pending final SEC clearance. Similar listings for Solana, Litecoin, and Hedera preceded their official ETF launches earlier this year. Even though this step doesn’t confirm approval. It strongly suggests that issuers are confident the process is nearing completion. Many analysts now expect spot XRP ETFs to debut by late November.

Filing Strategies Point Toward November Launch

Some asset managers are using strategic filing methods to accelerate the timeline. Firms like Franklin Templeton, 21Shares, and Canary Capital have filed under the “8(a)” provision. Which allows automatic registration if the SEC doesn’t act within 20 days. This strategy, combined with the removal of “delaying amendment” language from several S-1 filings. It has fueled speculation that ETF issuers are coordinating for a synchronized launch window. In short, all signs point toward a November rollout. It provided no last-minute objections from regulators.

Ripple’s Legal Win Set the Stage

Momentum for an XRP ETF has been building since August 2025. When the SEC ended its five-year lawsuit against Ripple Labs. The resolution effectively classified XRP as a non-security in secondary markets. It removes the biggest obstacle to institutional products tied to the token. That ruling unlocked new confidence among asset managers. Which allows them to pursue ETF listings without the legal uncertainty that previously shadowed XRP.

Institutional Demand and Market Impact

The potential for a U.S. spot XRP ETF has attracted intense interest from institutional investors. Analysts expect early inflows of $2.5 billion to $3.2 billion within the first quarter after launch. Such inflows could drive renewed momentum in XRP’s price. This is similar to what happened with Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs earlier in 2025.

Broader sentiment across the crypto market also remains optimistic. With regulatory reforms, leadership changes at the SEC. Additionally, new legislation like the GENIUS Act, the environment for crypto ETFs looks stronger than ever. If approved, XRP would become the next major digital asset to gain spot ETF exposure. This cemented its position in the expanding lineup of U.S. listed crypto funds.
