Ripple has ruled out an initial publi offering, with President Monica Long stating the company does not need public market capital to fund growth.

Key Notes
Ripple confirmed it has no plans to pursue an IPO in 2026.The company raised $500 million in November 2025 at a $40 billion valuation.Payments volume crossed $95 billion, and RLUSD broke $1 billion in market cap.
Ripple XRP$2.11 has no plans to go public in 2026. President Monica Long confirmed on January 6 that the company intends to remain private, citing a strong balance sheet and no need for public market capital.
Ripple raised $500 million in November 2025 at a $40 billion valuation. Long added that the capital provides ample flexibility to fund growth without the pressure or disclosure burden of an IPO.
On the other hand, XRP has dropped 5% in the last 24 hours despite more than $19 million in exchange-traded fund (ETF) inflows on January 6th.
Unexpectedly, ETF issuer WisdomTree Digital Commodity Services withdrew its plans for a spot XRP ETF.
Strong Balance Sheet Removes Urgency
Long said companies usually pursue listings to access liquidity and a broader investor base. Ripple, she argued in an interview with Bloomberg, already has both. The fundraising round attracted Fortress Investment Group, Citadel Securities, and major crypto funds.
Ripple also completed a $1 billion tender offer earlier in 2025 at the same valuation and has repurchased more than 25% of its outstanding shares in recent years, giving early shareholders liquidity without a listing.
Instead of preparing for public markets, Ripple spent 2025 building institutional infrastructure. The company closed nearly $4 billion in acquisitions, including prime broker Hidden Road, treasury platform GTreasury, payments firm Rail, and custody provider Palisade.
Hidden Road alone cost $1.25 billion. However, Long also stated that the acquisition pace will slow in 2026.
Payments and Stablecoins Drive Growth
Ripple Payments processed more than $95 billion in volume as of late 2025.
RLUSD, Ripple’s dollar stablecoin, crossed a $1 billion market cap within seven months and now forms the core of both payments and treasury products.
The company is expanding deeper into institutional use cases, including collateralized lending, stablecoin settlement, and XRP-based liquidity.
Long said that Ripple is building the infrastructure that traditional finance needs to use digital assets at scale.
Meanwhile, XRP Ledger has also shown promising growth over the past year. As pointed out in a series of posts on X by RippleX Developers, “XRPL is now one of the top 10 blockchains for RWA activity.”
Issuers such as Ondo Finance, OpenEden, Archax, Guggenheim Treasury Services, Mercado Bitcoin, VERT, and the Dubai Land Department are building or launching assets on XRPL as well.

Morgan Stanley expands its crypto ETF push by submitting an S-1 filing to the US SEC for an Ethereum Trust.

Morgan Stanley also recently submitted its filings for Bitcoin and Solana ETFs, signaling a broader institutional push.
The proposed Morgan Stanley Ethereum Trust aims to track ETH prices and participate in Ethereum staking to generate yield.
Spot Ethereum ETFs have seen renewed inflows at the start of 2026, led by BlackRock’s ETHA, which has attracted over $344 million.

ETFs, banking giant Morgan Stanley has now moved to file for an Ethereum Trust, as per the recent filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).

exchange-traded fund. This shows further expansion of the firm’s push into crypto investment products.
According to the filing, the Morgan Stanley Ethereum Trust is designed to track the price of Ether, and provide a direct regulated exposure to the altcoin.
The filing comes just one day after Morgan Stanley submitted registration statements for Bitcoin and Solana ETFs.
As per the Ethereum ETF proposal from Morgan Stanley, the bank also seeks to participate in ETH staking.
This will allow the fund to generate yields on its ETH holdings. Earlier this week, asset manager Grayscale distributed the first staking rewards to investors of its Ether ETF (ETHE).
The demand for Ethereum staking has also spiked in recent weeks, with BiMine at the forefront of the recent staking boom.
However, several important details remain undisclosed in the filing.
Morgan Stanley has not yet specified the exchange on which the ETF would be listed, its ticker symbol, or the custodian responsible for holding the underlying ETH.

The move has drawn attention across the digital asset industry. Matt Hougan, chief investment officer at Bitwise, called Morgan Stanley’s entry into crypto ETFs “pretty remarkable.”
He added that the proposed Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Solana products would become the third, fourth, and fifth ETFs to carry the Morgan Stanley name.
Ether ETF Inflows Resume Again
Inflows into spot Ethereum ETFs have resumed after bleeding in December 2025. BlackRock’s iShares Ethereum Trust (ETHA) is leading most of the flows.
On Jan. 6, inflows into spot Ether ETFs stood at a total of $114.7 million, as per data from Farside Investors.
According to market data, the BlackRock Ethereum ETF saw net inflows of 61,359 ETH. Trading activity was also elevated, with daily volume reaching about $1 billion.
The latest figures extend a positive trend for the fund.
Over the first three trading days of 2026, ETHA has attracted more than $344 million in net inflows, representing roughly 108,000 ETH added to the fund.
