Bitwise Files for XRP ETF Application in Delaware
The Delaware application for the XRP ETF doesn't guarantee a quick SEC registration, as the formal filing may take several more months.
A new application for a Bitwise XRP exchange-traded fund (ETF) has been spotted on the State of Division of Corporations website. This filing was made on the 30th of September, 2024 and the registered agent mentioned here is CSC Delaware Trust Company.
However, this Delaware application does not ensure that a formal registration with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) will be done shortly. It may be a part of the preliminary work, and the actual filing may take several months more.

The application comes after Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse stated that an XRP ETF is “inevitable” especially after the approval of Bitcoin and Ether ETFs in the U.S. An XRP ETF if approved would offer institutional investors a regulated avenue for investing in cryptocurrencies which could increase the circulation of XRP.
The talk about an XRP ETF has been going on for months now. In November 2023, a fake filing for a “BlackRock iShares XRP Trust” made XRP rise by 12%, but BlackRock denied this application and Delaware prosecutors began investigating.
This application is made at a time when the SEC is still in a legal tussle with Ripple Labs, a case that started in 2020 when the SEC claimed that Ripple sold XRP as a security without registration.
A recent court decision showed that XRP is not a security on exchanges but can be considered one in institutional sales. The case is still inactive as both parties wait for the appeal by the SEC.
