SEC Delays Franklin Templeton’s XRP ETF Decision, Pushing Approval to June 2025

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has delayed its decision on Franklin Templeton’s spot XRP ETF until June 2025, extending the review process for crypto exchange-traded funds (ETFs). This delay follows a similar pattern of postponements by the SEC for multiple cryptocurrency ETFs, including Fidelity’s Ethereum ETF using staking and Bitwise’s Dogecoin ETF. The move signifies a continued focus on thorough regulatory evaluation in the complex world of digital assets.
