Talk of 10 XRP ETF filings with the SEC has been spreading fast, showing up on X, in news reports, and across financial discussions. But is this actually confirmed, or is speculation moving ahead of the facts?
Here’s what we do know. As of March 12, several firms, including Bitwise, WisdomTree, 21Shares, ProShares, and Franklin Templeton, had already filed for XRP ETFs. In total, reports list nine distinct XRP-related ETF applications with the SEC.
But then, on March 17, Hashdex filed an amendment to its Nasdaq Crypto Index US ETF. The amendment seeks to add several altcoins, including XRP, Litecoin, Solana, and Cardano.
This is where the confusion starts. Hashdex’s amendment isn’t a direct XRP ETF filing, but it does include XRP exposure in a broader fund. That was enough for some to assume that this marked the 10th XRP ETF, leading to claims that the magic number had been reached.
The buzz really took off after some big finance accounts on social media started talking about “10 XRP ETF filings.” But so far, there’s no official word from the SEC confirming that many separate XRP ETFs actually exist. Interest in XRP ETFs is definitely growing, but the numbers being thrown around online don’t seem as clear-cut as they sound.
So, is the claim true? It depends on how you define an ETF filing. If you count Hashdex’s amendment as the tenth, then maybe. But if you’re looking for 10 standalone XRP ETF filings, the evidence just isn’t there yet.
