What Happens to XRP Price If Every U.S. ETF Holds It? the Numbers Are Wild

Ripple’s XRP long-term outlook could change dramatically if it secures a big role in the U.S. exchange-traded fund (ETF) market

According to a new analysis shared by TheCryptoBasic, XRP price might one day trade between $50 and $100 if it becomes part of every suitable ETF basket by 2035.

The U.S. ETF industry is already massive and it keeps growing fast. A June 2025 report from LSEG shows that ETFs manage more than $10 trillion in assets. Equity ETFs make up the largest slice with over $8.6 trillion, while bond ETFs account for nearly $2 trillion.

There are now about 4,245 ETFs on the market, and close to 800 of them each manage over $1 billion, covering more than 95% of total assets

Investor demand for ETFs isn’t slowing down. In 2024 alone, more than 900 new ETFs launched in North America, with most of them using active strategies and pulling in around $330 billion in new money.

ETF baskets, or collections of assets in an aggregate fund, have also become more prominent. The 2019 rule allowing tailored baskets added liquidity, especially in bond ETFs, and allowed managers to construct more flexible portfolios more easily.

How XRP Could Fit In

A number of the asset managers, including Canary Capital, WisdomTree, and Bitwise, have already filed to open spot XRP ETFs in the U.S., and early decisions should arrive in October 2025.

If these ETFs get approved, institutional investors and retail traders would have effortless, regulated access to Ripple’s XRP. Analysts think that could spark stronger demand and help lift the price

But the bigger picture is what might happen if XRP isn’t just added to a few funds but becomes a regular component across many ETF baskets over the next decade.

Grok’s Big-Picture Estimate

To explore that idea, TheCryptoBasic asked Grok to model the impact. Grok’s conclusion was bold: if XRP is included across all appropriate ETF baskets, its price could reach $50 to $100 by 2035.

Grok explained that widespread ETF inclusion would dramatically increase liquidity, make XRP easier to buy in large amounts, and drive strong institutional adoption

Ripple’s growing global partnerships, the coin’s use in cross-border payments, and a supportive regulatory climate would add even more momentum. Grok estimated that this could push XRP’s market cap into the $3 trillion to $6 trillion range.

What Needs to Happen

The XRP price outlook still depends on a few key factors. The U.S. will need to provide clear and positive crypto regulation

Banks and payment systems will have to integrate XRP more deeply as a settlement and payment asset. And the broader crypto market will need to stay healthy through the next decade.

If those pieces line up, XRP price could break far beyond today’s $3 level and enter a new phase of mainstream adoption

For now, the first step begins with U.S. regulators, as the upcoming ETF approval decisions could set the stage for the long-term growth that analysts and Grok are already imagining.
