Franklin Templeton is pushing forward with its XRP ETF application, removing a delaying clause that had previously slowed approval. This move follows similar updates by other major issuers, including Bitwise and CoinShares, who have filed their own updated S-1s for XRP ETFs. The timing comes as the industry sees an accelerated pace of filings, fueled by growing institutional interest in XRP exposure. 8(a) language was streamlined to allow for automatic registration once all requirements are met, a strategy mirroring the approach taken with Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs in 2025. This move positions Franklin Templeton at the forefront, leading a surge in issuers racing to bring XRP-based investment products to traditional markets.
