Since Monday, discussions around the mysterious BlackRock XRP ETF filing that appeared in Delaware have dominated the crypto space. The news of the filing was initially debunked by Bloomberg\u2019s Eric Balchunas<\/a>, but recent developments have raised suspicions that the filing was actually made by BlackRock.<\/p>\n One interesting revelation that has come from the BlackRock XRP ETF debacle is the fact that pretty much anyone can make an ETF Trust. Pro-XRP attorney Jeremy Hogan revealed<\/a> this on X (formerly Twitter), saying that anyone could actually spoof an \u201cXRP ETF\u201d Trust.<\/p>\n Hogan explains that while the filing is real, it is fraudulent and could be cheaply made with just $500. Apparently, all that is needed for such a Trust to appear on the Delaware Corp. Commission website is to fill out two documents. These include the \u2018State of Delaware Certificate of Trust\u2019 and the \u2018State of Delaware – Division of Corporations\u2019 documents. Then once the $500 fee is paid, Hogan says the filing then gets \u201ca \u2018placeholder\u2019 on the state website.\u201d<\/p>\n The attorney reasons<\/a> that whoever did this may have tried to replicate what happened when BlackRock filed for an Ethereum spot ETF<\/a>. \u201ccriminal saw what happened with the Eth trust filing, files the XRP trust “filing,” buys $100k xrp on leverage, sells at 74 cents, and pockets 2-3 million dollars.\u201d On the other end of this, Hogan also reasons that maybe \u201cBlackrock has clients who want exposure to XRP and have begun the process.\u201d<\/p>\n Another attorney, Fred Rispoli<\/a>, also took to X (formerly Twitter) to give their own two cents on the BlackRock XRP ETF situation. Rispoli confirmed<\/a> what Hogan said about anyone being able to fake such a filing and having it listed on the site. But other than that, the attorney went into the details of the filing.<\/p>\n The XRP Trust filing reportedly matches the BlackRock Ethereum ETF<\/a> filing with the exception of the name being changed and the date of the filing being different. However, the XRP Trust has a different registered agent than the BlackRock Bitcoin Trust but shares the same one with the Ethereum Trust.<\/p>\n Rispoli adds that only the BlackRock iShares Bitcoin<\/a> filing is currently listed on the SEC\u2019s Edgar site, which is where filings with the regulator are listed. There is no trace of an iShares Ethereum<\/a> and XRP Trust. \u201cHowever, the Bitcoin Delaware filing preceded the SEC<\/a> Registration statement by 7 days (6\/8\/23, 6\/15\/23),\u201d the attorney said.<\/p>\n He also added that there were no trademarks filed by BlackRock for all its crypto trusts filed this year, including the Bitcoin, Ethereum<\/a>, and XRP ones. However, this is not out of the ordinary since the asset manager does not trademark all of its products.<\/p>\n Finally, Rispoli explains that even if the BlackRock XRP Trust filing were true, it wouldn\u2019t be the first one. That actually goes to Grayscale, which ran an XRP Trust between 2018 and 2021. However, the asset manager discontinued this trust after the SEC sued Ripple<\/a> over alleged securities violations.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Even though Bloomberg\u2019s Eric Balchunas had said that an insider at BlackRock had denied that the asset manager filed the XRP Trust, the filing remained on the Delaware Corp. Commission website.<\/p>\n This raised skepticism among investors who began to speculate that maybe the asset manager may have made the filing after all. \u201cIf it was fake, it would\u2019ve been delisted by now,\u201d WhaleWire said on X.<\/p>\n It\u2019s been over 6 hours, and the iShares $XRP<\/a> Trust filing is still actively listed on the ICIS Delaware website. If it was fake, it would\u2019ve been delisted by now.<\/p>\n Also, in order to apply, you must have TWO notorized witnesses & the Grantor MUST sign the documents, as well as\u2026 pic.twitter.com\/Uup7wy0Xvp<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 WhaleWire (@WhaleWire) November 13, 2023<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\nBlackRock XRP ETF Could Be Filed By Anyone<\/h2>\n
