The REX-Osprey XRP ETF (XRPR) has crossed $100 million in assets under management just five weeks after its September launch. The fund offers investors exposure to XRP, which is currently the fourth-largest cryptocurrency by market value.

The ETF launched on September 18, 2025. Its rapid growth shows increasing institutional interest in XRP.

In Brazil, the Hashdex Nasdaq XRP ETF has collected around $52 million in total assets. That fund is the world’s first spot XRP ETF.

XRP’s price has bounced from a key support level at $2.33. This level matches the 50-week exponential moving average.

The token sits within an ascending triangle pattern on weekly charts. This technical formation has historically led to strong price moves for XRP.

Earlier in 2025, similar bounces from the pattern’s lower trendline resulted in 70-80% gains. The current bounce shows an 8% increase from the support level.

Ripple Prime and Institutional Strategy

Ripple announced on Friday that it completed the acquisition of Hidden Road. The company rebranded the firm as Ripple Prime.

This makes Ripple the first crypto company to operate a global, multi-asset prime broker. The new division will serve existing institutional clients.

CEO Brad Garlinghouse called the move another step toward building an “internet of value.” He said “XRP sits at the center of everything Ripple does.”

Ripple also announced plans to purchase $1 billion in XRP tokens for a new treasury. The company will list this on Nasdaq under the ticker “XRPN.”

Trading Activity Increases

CME Group added XRP options to its product lineup following strong demand. The exchange has reported high trading volumes since launching XRP futures in May.

Over 567,000 futures contracts have been traded since the May launch. This represents $26.9 billion in total volume.

Evernorth, a new treasury company with plans to list on Nasdaq, has committed to holding XRP as a core reserve asset. This move reflects growing institutional acceptance of the token.

Technical analysts are watching the $3 resistance level. If XRP breaks above this price point, the ascending triangle pattern suggests a potential move to $3.45.

That would represent a 35% increase from current price levels. The target could be reached by December if historical patterns hold.

The token could also face downside risk. A breakdown below the triangle’s lower trendline could push the price toward $1.65.

Trader Credibull Crypto noted that Ripple’s large XRP holdings give the company incentive to drive the token’s success. The company benefits directly from higher valuations.

Trader Zeiierman Trading said XRP is now positioned at the center of institutional adoption following the Hidden Road deal.
