🔹 No Immediate Plans for Altcoins: Despite rising interest in altcoin ETFs, BlackRock has no immediate plans to file for an XRP ETF or any other altcoin-based ETFs.

🔹 Statement from Leadership: Jay Jacobs, head of BlackRock’s ETF division, confirmed that Bitcoin and Ethereum remain the firm’s main focus for now.

🧐 Debunking the "Fake XRP ETF Filing"

🔹 Quick Rebuttal: BlackRock promptly denied the legitimacy of this filing, clearing any confusion.

🔹 What’s Next?: The SEC is expected to review potential filings for other altcoin ETFs, including XRP and SOL, by the end of 2024.

💼 XRP ETF Filings from Rival Companies

🔹 WisdomTree Leads the Charge: Firms like WisdomTree, Bitwise, 21Shares, and Canary Capital have officially filed for spot XRP ETFs.

🔹 Competition Heats Up: While BlackRock is focusing on BTC and ETH, other players are pushing hard for XRP ETF approval.

💸 Ripple’s Massive XRP Transactions — Billions on the Move!
