XRP ETFs Could Unlock $100 Trillion in Traditional Finance, Says Bitwise CEO

We’re at a turning point in finance. The CEO of Bitwise Asset Management, Hunter Horsley, said that a spot ETF for XRP could open the door to trillions of dollars in traditional finance flows. In plain terms, we could soon see mainstream institutions,  pension funds, banks, and asset managers entering the crypto world via XRP. The idea is that if XRP gets ETF status, it won’t just be about crypto traders. It could become a bridge between our current banking system and digital‑asset markets. Why does this matter? Because XRP isn’t just another token. It’s built for speed, for cross‑border settlements, and for big-scale finance. And when money that already sits in traditional finance systems starts pouring in, the scale could be massive.
We will examine what the Bitwise CEO actually said, why XRP stands out for an ETF, how traditional finance might be rewired because of it, and what it all means for the future of finance.
