Vanguard Clients Gain Access to Bitwise XRP ETF, Says CEO

Published at 2025-12-02 06:00:08

Bitwise CEO Hunter Horsley posted on social media that Vanguard clients can now access Bitwise’s XRP exchange-traded fund. The update, dated Dec. 2, 2025, indicates the ETF is available through Vanguard’s platform for eligible accounts, marking a notable distribution step for XRP product offerings.

This development matters because Vanguard’s scale can channel more mainstream capital into XRP exposure, potentially boosting liquidity and making crypto allocation easier for long-term investors. Availability may vary by account type and region, and it does not alter the ETF’s underlying risks. Still, wider distribution through a major asset manager signals growing institutional acceptance and could influence how other custodians and brokers approach crypto ETFs going forward.
