Wall Street doing its thing.

ProShares to launch leveraged, short XRP futures ETFs on April 30
The first XRP futures ETF launched earlier this month, though approval of a spot XRP ETF has yet to come from the SEC.

Three new XRP futures ETFs from issuer ProShares are set for launch on April 30 after the SEC gave its tacit approval.
The funds provide leveraged and inverse exposure to XRP, but do not hold the asset directly, as in a spot ETF.
The three funds join Teucrium 2x Long Daily XRP ETF, the market’s first XRP ETF.

Here is more to add to the database:

ETF issuer ProShares will launch three futures-based funds that track the price of Ripple's XRP token on April 30, a new SEC filing shows.

The funds — an Ultra XRP ETF (2x leverage), a Short XRP ETF, and an Ultra Short XRP ETF (-2x leverage) — were proposed in January. The funds recently received the tacit approval of the SEC, which declined to raise any objections during the review period.

Additional data for the database:

The funds will be the second, third, and fourth ETFs tracking the price of XRP available on the U.S. market. However, ProShares' separate application for a spot XRP ETF is still awaiting approval, according to The Block's ETF Tracker, alongside similar proposed spot funds from asset managers such as Grayscale, 21Shares, and Bitwise.

Vermont-based asset manager Teucrium Investment Advisors LLC launched the first XRP ETF in the U.S. market earlier this month, similarly offering leveraged exposure to the price of XRP without holding the asset directly. "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 Senior ETF Analyst Eric Balchunas said in a post on X at the time.
