🚀 XRP & Solana ETFs Hit $1B Milestone: 21Shares Leads the Charge

Wall Street's latest crypto crush just hit a billion-dollar milestone—and yes, the suits are finally paying attention.

### The ETF Gold Rush Isn't Slowing Down

21Shares just bulldozed past the $1B mark for its XRP and Solana ETFs, proving institutional money still flows where the volatility is. Who needs stable returns when you've got 10x potential, right?

### XRP's Redemption Arc

Once the courtroom underdog, Ripple's token is now ETF royalty—a plot twist even Hollywood wouldn't greenlight. Take that, SEC.

### Solana's Silent Dominance

No outages, no drama—just SOL quietly eating Ethereum's lunch in the institutional portfolio buffet.

The Punchline:
Billion-dollar ETFs won't stop bankers from calling crypto a 'fad' over martinis. But their pension funds? Already allocated.

The Head of U.S. Business at 21Shares, Federico Brokate, revealed that the company’s  XRP and solana ETFs have crossed $1 billion in assets this year out of Europe. This reflects a strong community backup in 21Shares and significant investors’ interest. 

$1 Billion in XRP and Solana ETF in Europe

21Shares, a prominent issuer of crypto exchange-traded funds (ETFs), has multiple ETPs (Exchange Traded Products) related to XRP and Solana. The products are physically-backed and listed on major European exchanges, including Nasdaq Stockholm, Euronext Amsterdam, and SIX Swiss Exchange. It explains the strong investor demand and institutional adoption of the company’s crypto products. 

In a recent interview in The Crypto Beat, Brokate stated, “Our XRP and our Solana ETFs crossed $1 billion in assets this year out of Europe…You can only imagine what that will look like in the US once those products are approved.”

21Shares Expands Under Brokate’s Leadership 

Since Brokate’s appointment in 2024, the company has continued to expand in terms of product lineup and business strategy. The firm now manages billions in assets under management with nearly 50 U.S. employees. It shows a significant growth in the U.S. crypto ETF market.

Brokate brought impressive ETF and business expertise from his previous roles at BlackRock. Now, he is aligning the crypto ETFs with growing institutional demand and regulatory clarity in the digital assets space. 

Brokate’s Comment on the US Administration’s Stance on Crypto 

With growing institutional adoption in crypto, especially in the United States, 21Shares’ head praises the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) for its active oversight in the crypto space. He says that the administration is moving quickly with its regulations to provide clarity for digital assets. 

Brokate states, “The number of things on the administration’s plate right now is quite astonishing…I think that we’re seeing all the support that we saw, at least for the GENIUS Act and for the CLARITY Act.” 

“Then some of these potential approvals that we have coming up down the road are a great indication of how there’s been a shift in Washington broadly,” he adds.
