XRP and Solana ETFs Could Redefine the Market: Shibo’s Perspective
Bitcoin ETFs are already here. Ethereum ETFs are on the way. The big question now: will Solana and XRP be next?For Shibo, co-founder of Doginal Dogs and host of The Crypto Show, this is more than speculation. It is a sign of how far crypto has come and where it is heading next.
If ETFs tied to XRP and Solana become reality, they will not just shift liquidity. They will redefine how institutions, regulators, and communities interact with digital assets.
XRP has been through one of the longest and toughest legal battles in crypto history. Ripple’s progress against the SEC has changed the conversation. An XRP ETF would give the token more than legitimacy. It would give institutions an open door into a project that has always thrived on persistence and loyalty.
Shibo highlights how the XRP community is built on conviction. An ETF would validate that loyalty, but more importantly, it would make XRP accessible at a scale it has never seen before.
Solana has proven itself with speed, scale, and culture. From NFT dominance to explosive memecoin waves, it is now positioned as one of the strongest ecosystems outside of Ethereum.
A Solana ETF would do more than attract Wall Street. It would give builders access to deeper liquidity and shine a brighter spotlight on Solana-native projects. That is what excites Shibo. It is not just about price. It is about what institutional adoption does for the builders, creators, and communities already driving the chain.
ETFs are powerful, but Shibo warns that they come with a trade-off. They simplify crypto into tickers and charts. That risks reducing years of community work into little more than an investment product.
That is why he believes community must stay vocal and engaged. ETFs may bring capital, but culture is what creates staying power.
If Solana and XRP ETFs arrive, the timing could line up with the next big market cycle. Shibo believes this will not just bring money into the system. It will change sentiment. When institutions validate assets, retail follows. And when retail follows, momentum becomes exponential.
For Doginal Dogs and the broader Web3 movement, this is a chance to prove that culture, not just capital, drives the future of crypto.
XRP and Solana ETFs could open doors for billions in institutional inflows. But Shibo makes it clear: they cannot replace the culture, conviction, and leadership that made these assets matter in the first place.
Institutions may buy in, but it is people who keep the movement alive.
