"Vanguard's XRP ETF decision just broke years of crypto silence. On December 2, 2025, the $11 trillion asset manager opened XRP ETF access to 50 million clients, reversing its long-standing position against digital assets. The Vanguard XRP ETF access marks a watershed moment-the same firm that spent years avoiding crypto while competitors launched Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs just made XRP investable for mainstream America."
"With 50 million clients now able to gain XRP ( ) exposure through familiar advisory channels, the cryptocurrency enters a different phase. The question now shifts from whether XRP qualifies as investable to whether XRP will reach $3 by January 2026. That goal depends on how quickly Vanguard advisors allocate and how markets respond to sustained XRP ETF inflows."
"Vanguard's risk and compliance teams signed off on multiple XRP ETFs after years of hesitation-a stamp of approval driven by regulatory clarity following the August 2025 SEC settlement. XRP now fits within mainstream investment models, shifting from a speculative asset to approved allocation inside retirement accounts and diversified portfolios."
Vanguard reversed its long-standing avoidance of digital assets on December 2, 2025, opening XRP ETF access to 50 million clients. The $11 trillion manager's decision signals that XRP achieved sufficient credibility and regulatory clarity after the August 2025 SEC settlement. Vanguard's conservative, low-cost reputation gives the change outsized credibility. Vanguard advisors can now allocate XRP exposure via regulated ETFs without extra approvals, embedding XRP inside advisor-managed portfolios, retirement accounts, and diversified allocations. The trajectory toward a $3 price by January 2026 depends on the pace of advisor allocations and market response to sustained ETF inflows.
