As the market anticipates the launch of spot XRP ETFs, Crypto.com CEO Kris Marszalek has commented on the potential impact of these products.
In a video shared by crypto commentator Xaif (@Xaif_Crypto), Marszalek discussed the future of altcoin investments and referenced forecasts highlighting large-scale inflows if an XRP ETF is launched.
He emphasized that in the next few years, digital assets with solid capital inflows could outperform others, noting that “there’s a forecast saying that the ETF for XRP is going to attract $8 billion of inflows next year.”

Are Institutions Preparing for XRP?
Xaif and many other market participants view Marszalek’s comments as an indication of growing institutional interest in XRP and its potential to drive new liquidity into the market. Although the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has yet to make any official announcement regarding such a product, Marszalek’s statement adds momentum to ongoing discussions in the community.
Franklin Templeton recently modified the language in its ETF filing, and many community members see this as a sign of an impending launch. The DTCC has also listed over 9 XRP ETFs, suggesting these products are also near approval.
Spot XRP ETFs are the next major step toward expanding access to digital assets through traditional financial channels. The introduction of ETFs for established cryptocurrencies has historically improved market liquidity and encouraged broader adoption among institutional investors.
Marszalek’s comments suggest that Crypto.com may position itself strategically for this development. He mentioned that the company has a “clear, differentiated, exciting strategy that nobody else is pursuing,” signaling a commitment to innovation in digital finance.

While he did not specify how this strategy relates to potential ETF participation or XRP exposure, the remarks indicate confidence in the exchange’s direction as it anticipates billions of inflows into the XRP market.
A Potential Turning Point for XRP
If the $8 billion projection materializes, an XRP ETF could significantly influence the token’s trading volume and valuation. Such inflows would reflect a substantial shift in investor sentiment toward regulated crypto instruments, reinforcing XRP’s standing as one of the most established digital assets.
Despite regulatory uncertainties around XRP in recent years, the market’s anticipation for structured investment vehicles remains strong. As Marszalek concluded, “We will build it and I hope you guys join along for the ride,” a statement that shows the confidence driving both Crypto.com’s outlook and the wider industry’s expectations for what could become a landmark development in cryptocurrency investing.
