Grayscale XRP Trust ETF
Grayscale XRP Trust ETF is a Delaware statutory trust that holds XRP, the digital asset used on the decentralized XRP Network, and issues exchange-traded shares designed to track the value of that XRP less expenses. It is a passive investment vehicle rather than an operating company: it does not develop the network, employ staff, or use leverage or derivatives to pursue its objective.
