The development is also sure to increase the exposure of other ETFs in Brazil. This includes Solana ($SOL)\u2014which has two ETFs in the country\u2014as well as related projects like Solaxy ($SOLX).<\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s dive into the details below.<\/p>\n<h2>$XRP Gains Added Exposure with ETF Approval<\/h2>\n<p>Brazil\u2019s CVM announced the approval of the $XRP spot ETF on February 18, the first of its kind worldwide. Formally known as the \u2018Hashdex NASDAQ XRP Index Fund,\u2019 the fund was established on December 10, 2024, and will be traded in B3, the country\u2019s main stock exchange.<\/p>\n\n<p>With brokerage firm Genial Investimentos as its administrator, the $XRP ETF will allow investors to gain direct exposure to $XRP. <\/p>\n<p>This means they will be able to speculate on the digital currency\u2019s price in the stock market without actually owning $XRP tokens. This will also facilitate investing in the token, as they can do this without using crypto wallets.<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s no information yet, however, regarding the ETF\u2019s launch date. We\u2019ll keep you posted as soon as it happens.\u00a0<\/p>\n<h2>A Major Win for $XRP and Other Cryptocurrencies<\/h2>\n<p>The approval of the first $XRP spot ETF will certainly help with Ripple\u2019s rapid expansion worldwide, as explained above. <\/p>\n<p>But on top of the ETF, the company has also <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/news\/4-best-altcoins-to-invest-in-ripple-partners-with-10-central-banks\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">partnered with 10 central banks<\/a>\u2014including Colombia, Georgia, and Montenegro\u2014to help develop their respective Central Bank Digital Currencies.<\/p>\n<p>The CVM\u2019s approval could also accelerate the confirmation of other $XRP ETFs currently under review in the US, such as Rex-Osprey $XRP ETF, Canary $XRP ETF, and 21Shares Core $XRP Trust. A more crypto-friendly US government will also increase the possibility of this approval.<\/p>\n<p>$XRP\u2019s entry into the Brazilian stock exchange also reflected positively on the token\u2019s price. As of writing, XRP is at $2.69 after bottoming out at $2.12 on February 3.<\/p>\n\n<h2>$XRP Approval Bodes Well for Solana and Solaxy<\/h2>\n<p>The $XRP spot ETF is only one of several crypto ETFs in Brazil. Solana has two such funds, one offered by Brazilian asset manager QR Asset, and the other under Hashdex, which also manages the $XRP, as well as $BTC and $ETH funds.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Both $SOL ETFs were approved in August 2024. QR Asset\u2019s spot ETF raised $2.75M during its initial public offering in the same month. <\/p>\n<p>The second $SOL ETF, meanwhile, is currently in its pre-operational phase. Once both Solana-based funds start trading, we can expect $SOL\u2019s visibility and value to increase further.<\/p>\n<p>$SOL\u2019s wider availability would also benefit <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/new-meme-coins\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">meme coins<\/a> at large, particularly <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/visit\/solaxy\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Solaxy ($SOLX)<\/a><\/strong>. It\u2019s a Solana Layer 2 blockchain that aims to solve common issues with Solana, including failed transactions, network congestion, and high fees.<\/p>\n<p>How does it aim to achieve all that? Through Roll-Up Technology, which bundles transactions together and processes them off-chain, making the entire process more efficient.<\/p>\n<p>And if you were wondering about a lapse in security because of this, don\u2019t. Solaxy will finalize the transactions on Solana, which means the transactions will inherit the blockchain\u2019s awesome security.<\/p>\n<p>The $SOLX token is currently on presale, which will allow you to invest in the project and hedge on Solana\u2019s success without waiting for $SOL to trade in Brazil\u2019s stock exchange. To date, the project has already raised $22.4M, which makes it one of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/best-crypto-presales\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">best crypto presales<\/a> of 2025.<\/p>\n<p>To get started, you\u2019ll need to get a crypto wallet like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/visit\/bestwalletapp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Best Wallet<\/a> and connect it to the presale widget on Solaxy\u2019s website. After that, you can <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/how-to-buy-solaxy\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">buy $SOLX<\/a> with crypto or fiat currency. You\u2019ll receive the tokens once the presale ends.<\/p>\n<p>Alternatively, you can stake them. This means locking $SOLX in a staking wallet for a set amount of time, giving you the opportunity to earn passive income (the APY is currently 181%).<\/p>\n<p>$SOLX is still affordable at only $0.00164 each. Another price increase will happen in less than 10 hours, though, so it\u2019s best to buy tokens as soon as you can.<\/p>\n<h2>Research Before You Invest<\/h2>\n<p>Crypto trading can be highly volatile. This means there\u2019s a huge potential for you to either lose or gain from your investment. Because of this, always do your own research before you buy crypto, and never invest money you\u2019re not ready to lose.<\/p>\n<p>Also, speak with a financial advisor if you\u2019re considering buying crypto.
