The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has once again pushed back its decision on proposed spot XRP ETFs, leaving the crypto community in a state of uncertainty. This latest delay, reported by UToday, impacts firms like 21Shares and CoinShares who are eager to bring these investment vehicles to market. The SEC’s extended review period for 21Shares and CoinShares applications reflects the regulatory body’s cautious approach towards digital asset products. Experts cite concerns about market manipulation, investor protection, and the complexities of custody as contributing factors to this delay. While some view the SEC’s caution as a necessary safeguard for investors in volatile markets, others are left wondering if this delay will stall XRP’s path toward mainstream financial integration via ETFs.
