The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has officially commenced its review of WisdomTree’s application to launch a spot XRP exchange-traded fund (ETF), a significant development in the ongoing integration of cryptocurrency into mainstream financial markets, according to BSCN Headlines . The proposed WisdomTree XRP Fund aims to provide investors with direct exposure to XRP, the digital asset native to the Ripple network, through a regulated investment vehicle. According to the filing, the fund would be listed on the Cboe BZX Exchange, with the Bank of New York Mellon serving as the administrator, fund accountant, and transfer agent. The ETF’s structure is designed to mirror traditional ETF mechanics, offering shares that represent a specific amount of XRP, thereby allowing investors to gain exposure to the cryptocurrency without the need to hold it directly.
