Spot XRP ETFs came a little short with an 85% chance of receiving the approval to launch in 2025. The final Securities and Exchange Commission deadline is set for Oct 17 for the long-awaited XRP-based investment products.

The US SEC currently acknowledges all eight digital assets on the list with ETP filings as commodities - LTC, SOL, XRP, DOGE, ADA, DOT and AVAX.

XRP faced a mild price correction following the delay on the ETF decision.

The digital asset dropped 3% and is currently trading at $2.2. At the moment, Ripple's flagship cryptocurrency is the fourth-largest digital asset with a market capitalization of almost $130 billion.

The price drop on XRP also coincides with a correction in the market. As seen on CoinMarketCap, the global cryptocurrency market cap decreased by 0.4% to $2.96 trillion.

Many analysts still believe that the approval of spot XRP ETFs could help the digital asset reach new all-time highs, similarly to the Bitcoin-based investment products.
