XRPC ETF Debuts on Nasdaq: Your Ticket to the XRP Ledger Boom

Wall Street meets crypto—again. The XRPC ETF just hit Nasdaq, giving traditional investors their easiest on-ramp yet to the XRP Ledger ecosystem.
No wallets, no private keys—just ticker symbols and SEC-approved exposure. Because nothing screams decentralization like a CUSIP number.
This isn't your 2017 ICO wild west. Institutional money wants in, and they're bringing their compliance teams. The ETF structure bypasses crypto's usual friction—think custody battles, exchange hacks—while still tracking XRP's price action.
Will purists cry foul? Obviously. Does it matter when pension funds start allocating? Not even slightly.
Closing thought: If you can't beat 'em, wrap their blockchain in a prospectus and charge 75 basis points.
