The post Top Ripple Exec Shades Solana ETF Debut as Market Awaits XRP’s Launch appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Solana’s ETF debut made quite a buzz in New York this week, with a whopping $56 million in turnover on day one. This is the highest opening print out of more than 800 ETF listings this year. The debut for sure stole the spotlight with its record volume, but Ripple’s camp quickly made sure the conversation shifted back toward XRP.
