The prospectus, dated November 4, outlines that the Franklin XRP Trust will hold the token as its primary asset, tracking its price performance.<\/p>\n<p>Both Bitwise and Canary Capital made similar filings last week, removing the \u201cdelaying amendment\u201d that normally lets the SEC control approval timing. According to journalist Eleanor Terrett, this move <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/spot-xrp-etf-to-launch-on-november-13-heres-the-latest-big-update\/\">positions<\/a> Canary\u2019s ETF for a November 13 debut, assuming Nasdaq grants final clearance through its 8-A filing.<\/p>\n<p>This approach mirrors the strategy used by issuers of the Solana (SOL), Litecoin (LTC), and Hedera (HBAR) ETFs last month, which <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/first-spot-etfs-for-solana-litecoin-and-hbar-set-to-debut-amid-sec-clarity\/\">launched<\/a> under the same automatic rule despite parts of the U.S. government being shut down. Those launches were successful, with Bitwise\u2019s BSOL ETF even <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/bsol-etf-crushes-xrp-debut-with-record-56m-first-day-volume\/\">recording<\/a> $56 million in first-day trading volume, the highest among over 850 ETFs launched this year.<\/p>\n<h2>Broader Market Implications and Investor Outlook<\/h2>\n<p>The expected XRP ETF wave comes at a time when over 150 crypto ETF filings are <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/crypto-etf-boom-155-filings-across-35-assets-analyst-backs-index-funds\/\">pending<\/a> with the SEC, spanning 35 different digital assets. The Ripple token currently ranks third among all crypto ETF targets, with around 20 separate filings, trailing only Solana and Bitcoin.<\/p>\n<p>Industry watchers say these developments show a clear shift in regulatory tone, following the end of Ripple\u2019s five-year legal dispute with the SEC in August 2025. Analysts such as Nate Geraci of NovaDius Wealth Management <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/expert-spot-ripple-xrp-etfs-could-debut-within-2-weeks\/\">believe<\/a> XRP ETFs could \u201claunch within the next two weeks,\u201d marking what he called a \u201cmajor moment\u201d for mainstream crypto investing.<\/p>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/xrp-etf-race-heats-up-as-franklin-bitwise-revise-s-1-filings\/\">XRP ETF Race Heats Up as Franklin, Bitwise Revise S-1 Filings<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/\" rel=\"nofollow\">CryptoPotato<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Franklin Templeton, Bitwise, and Canary Capital have all filed updated S-1 registration statements with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) in recent days, intensifying the race to launch the first U.S. spot XRP exchange-traded fund (ETF).
