Ripple’s big moment: Canary Capital files final 8-A form for XRP ETF

 

Canary Capital has officially filed Form 8-A with the U.S. SEC, signaling that the long-awaited XRP ETF could begin trading as soon as tomorrow or Thursday. Bloomberg analyst Eric Balchunas noted that when the firm filed the same form for HBAR ETF, trading began the very next day — suggesting a similar timeline for XRP.

The 8-A filing typically represents the final stage before ETF trading begins, meaning regulatory approvals are likely complete. Despite the excitement, XRP’s price has not yet reacted significantly, staying relatively stable ahead of the launch.

If confirmed, this would mark a historic milestone for Ripple, potentially driving strong institutional inflows and renewed market optimism around one of the most discussed assets in crypto.
