| Brought to you by: | | | I can't believe I'm really writing this: an XRP ETF might actually happen. | It seems only yesterday (read: last year) that the crypto market was twisting itself in knots about a fake XRP ETF filing from BlackRock. The false filing to the Delaware Division of Corporations sent tons a wagging, but I mean, come on, did anyone really expect it to happen? | It's amazing what a 2024 chock-full of ETF victories will do. With the BTC and ETH ETFs now, dare we say, hum-drum market products, it seems only natural that other digital assets are ready to take their turn. | Enter Bitwise. | It seems worth repeating that the XRP ETF's prospects are, well, a bit iffy. SEC chief Gary Gensler didn't seem exactly thrilled about the BTC and ETH ETFs passing through his agency. Given that the SEC's lawsuit against Ripple is still in-progress, the agency might attempt to throw a wrench or two in the gears. | But what then? Another lawsuit to force the SEC's hand? Remarkable times, these are. | Forward Guidance's Ben Strack noted, correctly I think, that the upcoming election will have a big impact. Suppose the Republicans win big, the promise of firing Gensler actually pans out, and suddenly, a supposedly more crypto-friendly administration takes over. | An XRP ETF's prospects would improve practically overnight. Heck, we might even see a dogwifhat ETF at that point. | XRP Army rejoice. | And now, on to the roundup: | — Michael McSweeney | | Brought to you by: | | MANTRA is a purpose-built RWA layer-1 blockchain capable of adherence and enforcement of real world regulatory requirements.

| | | | | | HBO is apparently going to run a bitcoin-themed documentary complete with (gasp) a Satoshi Nakamoto reveal. Something tells me it's going to be a dud. Byron is of the opinion that the late, great Hal Finney invented everyone's favorite digital coin. Not a bad bet, to be honest. |
