On October 2, a spokesperson for Bitwise confirmed to Cointelegraph that Bitwise had filed an XRP ETF application, which was officially submitted on the Delaware government website. According to the application, the Bitwise XRP ETF is set to be established on September 30, 2024. The registered agent is listed as CSC Delaware Trust Company, headquartered in Wilmington, Delaware.

It is important to note that filing in Delaware does not necessarily mean an imminent registration application will be submitted to the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). This step could be part of early preparations, and a formal filing with the SEC may take several months.
