Bitwise Asset Management's XRP spot ETF has reached over $500 million in assets under management just nine months after launching on the NYSE in November 2025. This milestone is notable as it occurred despite a significant decline in XRP's price, indicating strong investor demand and inflows that offset token value losses. The ETF offers a regulated, convenient way for investors to gain XRP exposure without directly holding the token, attracting both retail and institutional buyers. The achievement highlights growing mainstream acceptance of crypto ETFs and may boost Bitwise's position as a leading provider in this space.
