CEO
Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse recently highlighted how U.S. spot exchange-traded funds (ETFs) tied to XRP have become the fastest offering to hit $1 billion in assets under management (AUM) since Ethereum (ETH) ETFs.
As per the on-chain analytics platform SoSoValue, spot XRP ETFs have recorded the cumulative total net inflow of $897.35 million as of Dec. 5.
Garlinghouse said there is a "pent up" demand for crypto regulated crypto products. The Vanguard Group's plan to allow crypto exposure via its products, digital assets are now accessible to millions of people, he highlighted.
The CEO also underlined that longevity, stability and community are all underrated themes that matter to this new set of “offchain” crypto holders.
Canary Capital CEO Steven McClurg said his fund identified the strong institutional demand for XRP.
He also asked his followers to watch out for RLUSD, Ripple's stablecoin, whose growth he said is closely related to that of XRP.
We are very humbled to be a part of this. I spent the majority of my career managing institutional money, and Canary identified the strong institutional demand for XRP.
