Ripple points to important milestone, while XRP is heading for integration on Wall Street

Ripple has confirmed that XRP futures and ETFs can soon be traded on large US exchanges such as CME and NASDAQ-an important step to bring the traditional financial world and the crypto area together.
The announcement was made via the official social channels of Ripple and was later explained in more detail by CEO Brad Garlinghouse in a short video series entitled “Crypto in one minute”. In the video, Garlinghouse described this moment as a long overdue breakthrough for XRP and the access of institutional investors to digital assets.
“For years, institutions were excluded from direct access to cryptocurrencies,” said Garlinghouse and pointed out that most of them on centralized stock exchanges or tailor -made
Care solutions were limited. The introduction of regulated ETFs now offers these actors direct access to cryptocurrencies via the familiar infrastructure of Wall Street.
He emphasized that this change was more than symbolic – it signals a wider trend towards financial integration. Bitcoin ETFs, for example, broke records as the fastest ETFs that reached $ 1 billion in tributaries and continued to rose over $ 10 billion. Garlinghouse indicated that XRP could take a similar way and approach a mainstream acceptance that was once reserved for assets such as gold.
This step underlines the rapid pace with which the institutional acceptance of cryptocurrencies develops, and indicates that the next wave of token beyond Bitcoin could be led.
