In a spectacle worthy of a devilish grin, the Bitwise XRP ETF clattered onto the New York Stock Exchange stage this morning, flaunting its flashy $XRP ticker as if it were a top hat in a gloomy Moscow alley. Within mere hours, the fund had shuffled 610,045 XRP through unseen hands, summoning $14.26 million in early excitement-an amount that would make even Woland smirk in approval. Whispers now suggest Day 1 could soar to $92.7 million, though one suspects the fates themselves are betting against it.
Ripple CEO’s Turkey Trot of Triumph
Brad Garlinghouse, the self-appointed master of ceremonies for this carnival, congratulated Bitwise with a wink and a flourish: the “pre-Thanksgiving XRP ETF turkey trot” has begun. One imagines a scene: CEOs dancing around office tables in pilgrim hats, plotting global domination with a side of cranberry sauce. 🍗
The pre-thanksgiving rush (shall we say, ‘turkey trot’!?) for XRP ETFs starts now.. congrats @BitwiseInvest on today’s launch!
– Brad Garlinghouse (@bgarlinghouse) November 20, 2025
Like a mischievous cat scattering papers in a library, Garlinghouse’s words slithered through the XRP community, tickling nerves and sparking giddy anticipation for XRP’s audacious march into the sanctified halls of mainstream finance.
Bitwise Leadership Declares a Milestone-With a Flourish
Matt Hougan, Bitwise’s grand inquisitor of investments, joined the chorus, praising the ETF launch as an epic achievement. “What a journey for this asset and this community,” he proclaimed, as if revealing a hidden manuscript in the archives of human folly. One could almost see the ghost of Bulgakov nodding in sly approval.
XRP Price Tiptoes While the ETF Parade Passes
Despite the fanfare, XRP’s value tiptoed like a cautious phantom, down about 1% near $2.10. Analysts-those ever-watchful demons-warn that a slip below $2.10 could drag it toward $1.95. Yet even in this ballet of volatility, the ETF’s early dance shows a hunger for XRP exposure that refuses to be tamed.
Bitwise vs. Canary Capital: Who Wears the Crown?
Traders now squint through lorgnettes, measuring if Bitwise can dethrone Canary Capital’s earlier spectacle, which amassed a staggering $58.5 million on Day 1. Should momentum favor the bold, we may witness a new benchmark for XRP ETFs-a triumph worthy of a Bulgakovian twist, complete with laughter, chaos, and the occasional flying pig. 🐖
