- Ethereum ETF approval may open the floodgates to assets like Solana and XRP that may receive approval for ETFs in 2025.
- Standard Chartered analysts say that cryptocurrencies like Solana and XRP will not be classified as securities.
- SOL wiped out nearly 6% value on Friday, while XRP price is nearly unchanged on the day.
Ethereum Exchange Traded Fund (ETF) approval news has renewed optimism on Solana and XRP ETFs approval in 2025. Analysts at Standard Chartered believe more cryptocurrency ETFs may be approved next year, and these assets will not be classified as securities.

While regulation may take time, analysts call market participants to “unleash a full-blown meme mania” on Solana.
