Momentum surrounding XRP continues to build as industry leaders hint that a pivotal moment for XRP is approaching.
At the Ripple Swell 2025 conference, Teucrium CEO Sal Gilbertie suggested that the last period of November could be a major turning point. XRP and Ripple.
ETF development generates buzz
Monaka interview Mr. Gilberti, along with Rey Fuentes, who attended the event, noted that some developments were converging around mid-November.
Notably, the launch of the Canary XRP ETF will be possible after filing an updated S-1 with the SEC. The updated filings removed amendments that would normally allow the SEC to control the effective date of a product.
The ETF could automatically launch on November 13, 20 days after application. However, the schedule may change if the government reopens and the SEC issues additional comments.
“November is a very important time for XRP”: Institutional involvement is increasing
Gilberti said there has been an increase in institutional participation in a variety of areas. He cited Citibank’s predictions that suggest tokenized assets could reach trillions of dollars within five years. He believes this trend will directly support XRP’s long-term adoption.
Meanwhile, Fuentes pointed out that traditional finance and digital assets are becoming more closely linked. He highlighted patterns in past cycles, such as Bitcoin’s all-time high in 2020 and Coinbase’s subsequent IPO, and noted that major milestones in the market often cluster around major institutional investor moves.
In response, Mr. Gilberti said: “There are a lot of synergies, a lot of coincidences. But there are really no coincidences. I think the second half of November is a very important time for XRP and Ripple.”

Gilberti: “Believe in the volatility and ride it.”
Despite the recent turmoil in the crypto market, Gilberti encouraged XRP holders to focus on long-term fundamentals. He said it was normal for fluctuations to occur and could even present opportunities.
“Trust me, you don’t have to worry about volatility. As adoption increases and more institutional money comes in, the fluctuations will smooth out.” he said.
