Summary

Canary Capital has launched the first spot exchange-traded fund (ETF) offering exposure to XRP, expanding the crypto ETF market beyond existing Bitcoin, Ether, and Solana funds. The fund, trading on the Nasdaq under the ticker XRPC, is structured under the Investment Company Act of 1940, requiring a qualified custodian for asset holding. Canary Capital's CEO, Steven McClurg, stated that ETF accessibility will drive adoption for the critical blockchain system.
