First XRP ETF in the US market-which this means for Ripple and the crypto adoption in general
- Teucrium has launched a fund in the USA that offers a double commitment to the currently very volatile XRP.
- Soon there will also be XRP ETFs from Grayscale and Bitweise, whose approval by the Sec.
Teucrium Investment Advisors has the first XRP ETF in the United States on the market. The Teucrium 2x Long Daily XRP ETF is to be traded under the XXRP symbol on the NYSE Arca.
As CNF reported, the new financial product has a levered fund model and was introduced to achieve the double daily performance of the XRP token bound to Ripple. The reason for this is that it is a short -term speculation fund that is based on swaps instead of the direct use of XRP.
The ETF is suitable for investors who want to invest in anti -price fluctuations from XRP. However, such a commitment is associated with higher risks that result from the use of the levered ETF, since for those who are not familiar with it comes to complications in the impetus.
The returns of the product are reset every day, which makes it unrealistic for long -term owners, since high volatility reduces the returns. Since there is already a strong interest in the products of this industry, this ETF introduction could lead to the cryptocurrencies on the stock exchanges.
Teucriums of lit XRP ETF is an instrument for short-term trade
The Teucrium 2x Long Daily XRP ETF is aimed at investors who expect rapid movements of XRP market prices. The lit products with the designation XXRP increase the performance through daily prices that double the movements of the underlying assets. For example, if XRP increases by 10 percent on a certain day, the ETF will have a corresponding increase of 20 percent, minus fees and other expenses.
However, the values of the risk fund are time -indexed daily, so that the high volatility leads to considerable losses. Even if XRP rises by 10 % on a certain day and falls by 10 % the next day, an investor would go away empty -handed, even though the course has returned to the starting point.
In the prospectus of his proposed ETF, Teucrium points out that the fund could fall by up to 63.2 % with an annualized volatility of 100 %. This is an important consideration, since the functioning of the stock market trading on stocks depends to a great extent on short-term price fluctuations and less on medium to long-term trends.
This means that the total costs of the system are higher due to the high administrative fee, supplemented by monthly distributions of 1.85 % of the fund value. For this reason, this product is particularly suitable for market professionals who are happy to deal with the risks of the lit trade.
Spot XRP ETFs are still waiting for the SEC permit
While the first levered ETF is in the Teucrium market, several companies are waiting for the approval of their requested Spot-XRP ETFs. They are Grayscale Investments, Wisdomtree and Bitwise Advisors. In contrast to layed products, Spot ETFs depict the XRP course. So you can invest directly in the token. As CNF reported, the above-mentioned applications from the US stock exchange supervision SEC are available for examination, and the positive decision is still expected in the first half of 25.
The comparison of the SEC with ripple, in which the company paid $ 50 million in order to avert a much higher fine, should support the approval of these spot ETFs.
Still are Market observer of the opinion that the desire for such products is not yet very great. Although Ethereum-based ETFs were approved, the institutional interest was not as high as expected, which raises the question of how it will be with XRP.
The likelihood that an XRP spot ETF will be approved is still high because analysts estimate that it has a 65-75%chance of being approved. As CNF reported, several asset managers such as Franklin Templeton are already there, and their entry has increased the likelihood of further assumption of XRP assets in traditional financial circles.
XRP course and market mood
At the time of the announcement of the ETF introduction, the course of XRP was $ 1.88 and thus 6.24 % higher than in the 24 hours earlier. On the daily basis, however, XRP was in the rise and the increase was recorded with 0.49 %. But last week the cryptocurrency with a decline of 8.95 % was on the descending branch.
The entire market capitalization of XRP is currently $ 111 billion, and the daily trading volume exceeds $ 13 billion. This is a clear indication that there is a certain interest of investors in Ripple, although the price has not yet reached the $ 2.
The introduction of the Teucrium ETF and the ongoing approval procedures for Spot-XRP ETFs are proof of the institutional acceptance of Ripple and its token. Since thousands of people try to assess whether XRP will rise above $ 2 per coin, levered ETFs will be a new way for retailers to earn short -term price movements.
