- Franklin Templeton launches XRPZ ETF, first regulated XRP fund on NYSE Arca, reflecting institutional crypto adoption. - SEC's 2025 Ripple settlement cleared XRP's regulatory status, enabling $125M-payout-driven investment products like XRPZ. - XRPZ joins competitive ETF landscape (Bitwise, Grayscale) amid mixed market signals: $2.11 price rebound vs. 200M XRP whale sales. - Franklin's $1.69T AUM entry underscores crypto market maturation, with XRP positioned as foundational asset for cross-border paymen

Franklin Templeton has introduced the

Franklin XRP ETF

(XRPZ) on NYSE Arca, representing a major step forward in the institutional embrace of digital currencies. This fund, organized as a grantor trust that holds

XRP

, provides investors with regulated access to the world’s third-largest cryptocurrency by market cap.

XRPZ

is designed to mirror XRP’s price performance using the CME CF XRP-Dollar Reference Rate (New York Variant), with Coinbase Custody Trust Company acting as the custodian and BNY Mellon managing administrative responsibilities

according to the company's announcement

The launch of this ETF coincides with a surge in institutional demand for XRP, spurred by regulatory certainty after the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) settled with Ripple in August 2025. The SEC had previously filed a lawsuit against Ripple in 2020, claiming that XRP was sold as an unregistered security.

The resolution, which required a $125 million payment

, opened the door for investment vehicles based on XRP. Franklin Templeton’s move into the XRP ETF space reflects a broader pattern of established financial institutions offering regulated crypto investment options.

XRPZ enters a field already populated by other XRP ETFs, such as those from Bitwise, Grayscale, and Canary Capital.

Bitwise's XRP ETF, which began trading

on November 20, attracted $118 million in new investments within just a few days.

Grayscale also announced its XRP ETF

(GXRP) and

Dogecoin

ETF (GDOG) would launch on November 24, further broadening the altcoin ETF market. Franklin Templeton’s XRPZ is built to deliver daily transparency, secure custody, and liquidity,

addressing operational complexities

that come with holding XRP directly.

The XRP market has exhibited mixed trends. Although the token climbed to $2.11 following the ETF launches, blockchain analytics indicate that large holders sold off nearly 200 million XRP within two days after the debut,

raising concerns about short-term volatility

Analysts note that ETF inflows

might not immediately boost spot prices due to arbitrage delays and institutional hedging tactics. Still, these ETFs are viewed as drivers of long-term liquidity,

with XRP's utility in cross-border payments

and tokenization making it a key asset in the digital finance sector.

Franklin Templeton’s move into XRP builds on its existing suite of crypto ETFs, which already includes products for

Bitcoin

(EZBC),

Ethereum

(EZET), and a multi-asset crypto index (EZPZ).

The firm's head of digital assets, Roger Bayston

, highlighted XRP’s importance in aligning interests within decentralized systems and its value as a “building block” for diversified portfolios. With $1.69 trillion in assets under management, Franklin Templeton’s entry into the XRP market

underscores the maturation

of digital assets and the growing intersection of traditional and crypto finance.
