XRP ETF Makes History With $37.7M Debut Volume
Rex-Osprey's XRP ETF sees $37.7M in volume on launch day, the biggest for any ETF this year.
- XRPR saw $37.7M trading volume on its first day
- It’s the highest day-one volume for any 2025 ETF launch
- Market interest signals growing demand for XRP exposure
In a major milestone for XRP and crypto ETFs, the newly launched Rex-Osprey XRP ETF (XRPR) saw an impressive $37.7 million in trading volume on its first day, making it the largest day-one “natural volume” among all ETFs launched in 2025 so far. The data, shared by Bloomberg analyst Eric Balchunas, highlights the growing appetite for digital asset investment vehicles.
This launch comes amid increasing interest in crypto-based ETFs, especially following the approval of several Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs earlier this year. XRPR stands out as the first ETF specifically tied to XRP, the digital asset closely associated with Ripple Labs.
What Does “Natural Volume” Mean?
The term “natural volume” refers to genuine investor activity — not artificially boosted by pre-arranged trades or seed funding transactions. In the case of XRPR, the $37.7M in trading volume came from organic investor demand, showing that traders and institutions are keen to gain exposure to XRP through regulated means.
For comparison, many ETFs launch with far lower volume and rely heavily on promotional efforts or pre-launch partnerships to generate interest. XRPR’s performance signals both strong brand recognition for XRP and confidence in its long-term potential.
A Big Win for XRP and the Broader Market
This debut is a positive signal for the crypto market, particularly for altcoins. XRP has long had a loyal following, and this ETF offers a more accessible and compliant route for traditional investors to get involved.
Moreover, this could open the door for more altcoin ETFs in the future, especially if XRPR continues to perform well. It’s not just a win for XRP — it’s a step forward for the integration of digital assets into mainstream finance.
