Is Ripple’s Job Vacancy Post the First Step Towards an XRP ETF Launch?

  • Ripple hires a Senior Manager for Business Development in New York, with a key role related to ETFs.
  • Eleanor Terrett hints at the potential launch of a Spot XRP ETF if XRP attains a Futures ETF.
  • The reporter cites that the Spot Bitcoin ETF launch was mainly driven by the Bitcoin Futures ETF.

Recent reports unveiled that Ripple is hiring a Senior Manager for Business Development in New York, with a key responsibility related to ETFs. Responding to the announcement, Fox Business reporter Eleanor Terrett hinted at a potential XRP ETF launch, with the expert hiring as an initial step.

On January 27, a prominent crypto analytics platform on X, Good Morning Crypto, drew the community’s attention to the recent development in the Ripple ecosystem. With the mission of global financial equity and growth, Ripple envisions expanding its work power.

When the firm announced the vacancy for a Senior Manager for Business Development, one of the position’s key roles included “Drive cryptocurrencies related ETFs initiatives with internal trading teams and relevant partners.”

Subsequently, Terrett wrote on X that an XRP Futures ETF is a prime requirement for a Spot XRP ETF. She asserted that if XRP gets a Futures ETF, it’s “a step in the right direction” towards a potential Spot ETF. To reinforce her points, Terrett illustrated the example of the SEC’s Spot Bitcoin ETF approval, which was mainly driven by the Bitcoin Futures launch. Her words read,

Part of getting the BTC spot ETFs approved was the SEC concluding that the CME bitcoin futures market would suffice to provide surveillance for fraud and manipulation.

Chinese crypto reporter Colin Wu also reflected on the matter on his official X account, Wu Blockchain. In an X post, reiterating Terrett’s ideas, Wu noted, “The Ripple job posting involves “promoting cryptocurrency-related ETF plans,” or hints that the company is preparing to apply for an XRP ETF.”

An XRP ETF launch has been a topic of discussion over the past few weeks, especially after the Spot Bitcoin ETF launch. The community is divided based on the contrasting opinions regarding a potential XRP ETF launch. However, prominent figures like James Seyffart believe the launch cannot be realized this year due to the prevailing regulatory uncertainty.

DeFi CEO Says ‘No One Cares’ to Deutsche Bank Entry into BTC Custody

Deutsche Bank to offer bitcoin custody solution for institutional clients. Cake Group CEO believes the move will not substantially increase capital inflow or attract new participants. Deutsche Bank’s Paul Maley projects the digital asset sector to grow to trillions of dollars.

In full, his response read, And guess what… sadly no one cares… because everyone in Germany can already buy #bitcoin either with an ETF (that has literally ZERO volume) or on an exchange. All these banks entering the space, are not bringing in extra money or people. They are just re-routing existing… https://t.co/MMZHSbGB9U — Dr. Julian Hosp (@julianhosp) September 15, 2023 T...

MATIC Price Plunges, Have the Bulls Finally Lost Control?

Image
MATIC witnessed a decline in bullish momentum and has lost hold of the $0.74 psychological support. Buying pressure was weak as the CMF hovered around the zero line. Traders might likely short/sell MATIC in the near term since the 50 EMA crossed over the 20 EMA. Polygon (MATIC) brief dip below $0.78 has turned out to be an event that has lasted a whopping five days. Over the last 24 hours, the altcoin had lost 2.32% of its value. But its last 30 days’ performance was controlled by the bulls where MATIC increased by 6.61%. Currently, the MATIC/USD 4-Hour chart shows that the altcoin was hovering around a tight support zone at $0.71. Due to decreased demand, MATIC’s buying strength has been cut off. This indicates bearish dominance around $0.72. For MATIC to regain bullish momentum, the price must rise above the $0.74 psychological level. But if selling pressure outweighs demand, then the recovery attempt could be quenched. Furthermore, bears have ...
