According to Bitcoin.com News, Jake Claver, chairman of Digital Ascension Group, suggested on June 15 during a Deep Dive Podcast interview that Blackrock could eventually launch a spot XRP ETF. His comments emphasized broader XRPL adoption and institutional settlement infrastructure developments as supporting factors for XRP's outlook.
Claver tied potential ETF approval to deeper institutional use cases, noting that SWIFT and the Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (DTCC) are preparing real-time settlement initiatives for June 28. He predicted that wider adoption could require XRP to trade at a substantially higher price before the asset is used for institutional settlement activity.
