Asset management firm Franklin Templeton has introduced its XRP exchange-traded fund, joining a widening field of crypto funds hitting the market.

The Franklin XRP ETF, ticker symbol XRPZ, launched on Monday on NYSE Arca, and looks to reflect the price of XRP.

"Blockchain innovation is driving fast-growing businesses, and digital asset tokens like XRP serve as powerful incentive mechanisms that help bootstrap decentralized networks and align stakeholder interests," said Roger Bayston, head of digital assets at Franklin Templeton, in a statement. 

Franklin Templeton follows Grayscale, Canary Capital and REX Shares, which have all now launched XRP ETFs. XRP is the fourth-largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization. It is associated with Ripple Labs and is designed to enable low-cost and fast international money transfers.

Franklin Templeton, which has over $1.5 trillion in assets under management, previously debuted other crypto ETFs, including ones tracking Bitcoin and Ethereum.

"Together, these funds underscore the firm’s commitment to offering secure, transparent, and institutional-grade solutions that help investors navigate the evolving digital asset landscape," the firm said on Monday.

Headwind Helps Best Wallet Token

The post Headwind Helps Best Wallet Token appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Google has announced the launch of a new open-source protocol called Agent Payments Protocol (AP2) in partnership with Coinbase, the Ethereum Foundation, and 60 other organizations. This allows AI agents to make payments on behalf of users using various methods such as real-time bank transfers, credit and debit cards, and, most importantly, stablecoins. Let’s explore in detail what this could mean for the broader cryptocurrency markets, and also highlight a presale crypto (Best Wallet Token) that could explode as a result of this development. Google’s Push for Stablecoins Agent Payments Protocol (AP2) uses digital contracts known as ‘Intent Mandates’ and ‘Verifiable Credentials’ to ensure that AI agents undertake only those payments authorized by the user. Mandates, by the way, are cryptographically signed, tamper-proof digital contracts that act as verifiable proof of a user’s instruction. For example, let’s say you instruct an AI agent to never spend more than $200 in a single transaction. This instruction is written into an Intent Mandate, which serves as a digital contract. Now, whenever the AI agent tries to make a payment, it must present this mandate as proof of authorization, which will then be verified via the AP2 protocol. Alongside this, Google has also launched the A2A x402 extension to accelerate support for the Web3 ecosystem. This production-ready solution enables agent-based crypto payments and will help reshape the growth of cryptocurrency integration within the AP2 protocol. Google’s inclusion of stablecoins in AP2 is a massive vote of confidence in dollar-pegged cryptocurrencies and a huge step toward making them a mainstream payment option. This widens stablecoin usage beyond trading and speculation, positioning them at the center of the consumption economy. The recent enactment of the GENIUS Act in the U.S. gives stablecoins more structure and legal support. Imagine paying for things like data crawls, per-task…
