He recalled how, after the long-awaited <a href=\"https:\/\/coinpedia.org\/news\/bitcoin-etf-approved-heres-what-next-for-crypto-market\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">approval of Bitcoin Spot ETFs<\/a>, he had predicted that ETFs for other altcoins like ETH, XRP, and SOL would eventually follow.<\/p>\n<figure>\n<div>\n<blockquote data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">After the Bitcoin Spot ETF was finally granted (more like demanded \u2013 after being forced to fight Gensler\u2019s Bad Faith <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/SECGov?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@SECGov<\/a>, which was found to have acted \u201carbitrary and capricious\u201d in denying one), I said that I had zero doubts about Alt-Coin ETFs eventually following \u2013 and not\u2026 <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/nDp5lnpUNk\">https:\/\/t.co\/nDp5lnpUNk<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 John E Deaton (@JohnEDeaton1) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/JohnEDeaton1\/status\/1929657999699669002?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">June 2, 2025<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote><\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<p>While some doubted him at the time, Deaton\u2019s reasoning was based on a simple observation: once Bitcoin ETFs proved to be massively successful, even becoming some of the best-performing ETFs in history, Wall Street would naturally look to replicate that success with other digital assets.<\/p>\n<h3 id=\"h-companies-copying-the-bitcoin-treasury-model\">Companies Copying the Bitcoin Treasury Model<\/h3>\n<p>Deaton also explained that what Michael Saylor and MicroStrategy did with Bitcoin \u2014 turning it into a corporate treasury asset \u2014 would eventually inspire other firms to do the same with select altcoins like XRP.
