After Bitcoin and Ethereum received spot ETF approval, many companies sought regulatory approval for ETFs based on other altcoins. Among these, XRP and Solana are seen as the most likely candidates. 15 applications have been submitted by major firms like Grayscale, Bitwise, and Canary Capital, but Blackrock has yet to announce any steps regarding XRP. Their silence could signify a deliberate strategy, though a pseudonymous analyst claims he spoke to a Blackrock official who hinted at two crucial dates to watch – May 1st and June 9th. While the exact reason for these dates remains unclear, speculation is growing that significant events may be unfolding around them. The crypto community anticipates these dates could mark potential bullish moments, such as Blackrock filing an XRP ETF application or the resolution of the Ripple vs. SEC lawsuit.
