📢First XRP ETF in the U.S. to Go Live With Launch of Teucrium’s Leveraged Fund

Teucrium Investment Advisors will debut the first-ever XRP exchange-traded fund (ETF) in the U.S.

The Teucrium 2x Long Daily XRP ETF (XXRP) give investors a 2x leveraged exposure to the closely related Ripple token. XXRP will start trading on the NYSE Arca on Tuesday even before a standard "spot" XRP ETF has been approved by regulators.

“Very odd (maybe a first) that a new asset’s first ETF is leveraged. Spot XRP still not approved, although our odds are pretty high,” Bloomberg Intelligence analyst Eric Balchunas said in an X post.

Typically, ETFs tracking emerging assets like cryptocurrencies begin with unleveraged "spot" funds — those that directly hold the underlying asset — before more complex leveraged products are introduced.

Teucrium will charge a management fee of 1.85%. The firm cautioned that XRP’s price volatility and declining usage on the Ripple network could pose challenges to the fund’s performance, reflecting broader concerns about the token’s adoption and market stability.

Teucrium’s leveraged ETF arrives amid a flurry of applications for spot XRP ETFs still under SEC review. Major fund managers, including WisdomTree, Bitwise, 21Shares, Canary Capital, and Franklin Templeton, have filed proposals to bring unleveraged XRP ETFs to market.
