The first XRP exchange-traded fund (ETF) in the U.S., the 2x XRP ETF, will debut on Tuesday with Teucrium’s leveraged fund, providing 2x exposure to the Ripple token. This move comes ahead of a standard spot XRP ETF approval by regulators and is likely to attract investors seeking exposure to this asset class.
First XRP ETF in the U.S. to Launch on Tuesday with Teucrium’s Leveraged Fund
Teucrium Investment Advisors will debut the first-ever XRP exchange-traded fund (ETF) in the U.S., the 2x XRP ETF, which provides ‘2x leveraged exposure’ to the Ripple token. The ETF will start trading on the NYSE Arca on Tuesday.
The launch of the Teucrium 2x XRP ETF precedes the approval of a standard spot XRP ETF by regulators, which is unusual for new asset classes. This move comes as several major fund managers have filed proposals to bring unleveraged XRP ETFs to market, including ‘WisdomTree, Bitwise, 21Shares, Canary Capital, and Franklin Templeton’.
Ripple token, also known as XRP, is a cryptocurrency and digital payment network developed by Ripple Labs.
It was launched in 2012 and has since become one of the largest cryptocurrencies by market capitalization.
Ripple token allows for fast and low-cost international money transfers, with transaction times averaging around 2-5 seconds.
The token's supply is capped at 100 billion 'XRP' , making it a scarce asset.
Ripple token is used to facilitate cross-border payments between banks and financial institutions.
The SEC has acknowledged these applications, and decisions expected in the coming months could pave the way for additional XRP investment options. The introduction of this leveraged fund is seen as a response to the growing demand for XRP ETFs, despite concerns about the token’s price volatility and declining usage on the Ripple network.
XRP‘s price has surged ‘6.5% in the past 24 hours’ , mirroring a broader market trend. The launch of the Teucrium 2x XRP ETF is likely to attract investors looking for exposure to this asset class, but it also raises concerns about the potential challenges posed by XRP‘s volatility and declining adoption.
