The listed issuers include Bitwise (“XRP”), Franklin Templeton (“XRPZ”), 21Shares (“TOXR”), Canary (“XRPC”), and CoinShares (“XRPL”).
The DTCC serves as the key post-trade infrastructure provider in U.S. financial markets, handling clearing, settlement, and custody services. A product’s appearance in its database is generally viewed as a technical step toward market readiness, though it does not imply formal approval from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
So far, none of these XRP ETFs have received official SEC approval. Similar cases have occurred in the past — for instance, Canary’s Spot Litecoin ETF appeared on the DTCC list in February but didn’t launch until October, eight months later.
These filings follow a wave of approvals for spot ETFs on Bitcoin, Ether, and other altcoins. Major issuers are now working to expand their lineup of products aimed at institutional investors.
The listing of five XRP ETFs is seen within the industry as another step toward institutional integration of digital assets, although the actual launch timeline depends entirely on the SEC’s decisions.
Following the news, XRP rose by nearly 8% in the past 24 hours, supported in part by Donald Trump’s new economic proposals.
