Just like yesterday, bitcoin’s price has floated in a tight band between 
$87,831 and $88,067 in the last hour, revealing a market hesitant to make its 
next move. With a market cap of $1.75 trillion and a moderate 24-hour trading

undercurrents are far […]

Investor Paul Barron’s hint at “big news” has reignited attention on XRP 
exchange-traded funds this week, sending the community into speculation over 
possible upcoming announcements or launches. Related Reading: Crypto Heat

(@paulbarron) December 29, 2025 Community Reaction And Speculation Barron’s 
remark has been read by many as a hint at another XRP-related announcement. 
Some expect a new ETF launch; others are watching for updates from issuers 
already in the market. That talk has helped push attention — and inflows — to 
XRP products that only debuted late in the year. XRP Ledger Tokenization Surge 
Based on reports from rwa.xyz, on-chain data indicates tokenized real-world 
assets on the XRP Ledger rose by 2,200% in 2025. The network saw about 23x 
growth in the value of native real-world assets, including stablecoins, and 
crossed the $500 million threshold. Themes around RWA tokenization were widely 
discussed this year by figures such as BlackRock CEO Larry Fink and former SEC 
Chair Paul Atkins, and the XRPL appears to be drawing benefit from that 
interest. XRP ETFs Show Early Strength Canary’s XRP ETF (XRPC) registered $384 
million in year-to-date inflows after launching in November. Other XRP spot 
funds have built sizable holdings too: 21Shares holds about $250 million, 
Bitwise roughly $227 million, Grayscale around $244 million, and Franklin 
about $206 million. Based on reports, all of these XRP spot ETFs launched in 
November and December and now tally roughly $1.24 billion in total assets 
under management with cumulative inflows near $1.14 billion. For a new 
category, that level of money moving in over a short span is notable; some 
industry voices point out the total might have been higher if market mood had 
not cooled recently. Reports also say XRP ETFs pulled in over $1 billion 
through 21 days of steady inflows. Pending Products And Rumors WisdomTree’s 
XRP ETF is among the pending offerings that market watchers expect to arrive 
next. At the same time, talk about a BlackRock XRP ETF has circulated widely. 
There is currently no public filing tied to a BlackRock XRP product, and 
reports caution that such expectations are premature without official filings 
or approvals. Related Reading: Bitcoin Rules The Decade: Outshines Gold And 
Silver, Analyst Says Current flows note that XRP’s ETF debut has shifted part 
of investor focus from pure crypto bets to spot ETF allocations and 
tokenization themes. Whether Barron’s hinted “big news” becomes a concrete 
catalyst will depend on filings and formal product launches. For now, the mix 
of solid early inflows and rapid XRPL tokenization growth has put XRP squarely 
in the conversation among ETF-focused investors and network adopters. Featured
