XRP News: XRP short ETF postponed again, Teucrium long fund size exceeds US$150 million

Teucrium's proposed XRP reverse leveraged ETF has been postponed again, and the regulatory process has been extended.

Teucrium's planned leveraged short operation against XRP has been postponed again. The decision allowed the continuation of the regulatory process that began more than a year ago. At the same time, demand for bullish XRP investment products continues to grow.

Based on an SEC filing filed on September 11, the Listed Funds Trust has set a new effective date for the Teucrium 2x Daily Short XRP ETF (Teucrium 2 times daily short XRP exchange-traded funds) as October 11, 2026. The filings noted that the "sole purpose" of the move was to delay the effective date of the fund, which was originally unveiled in a registration statement filed on January 21, 2025.

This distinction is crucial: the SEC did not reject the ETF's application, and the filing does not mean that the product will inevitably begin trading on October 11. It simply postponed the effective date of registration again.

The proposed fund is designed to provide a return of-2x XRP's daily price performance before deducting fees and expenses. If XRP falls by 1% in a single day, the fund strives for a return of approximately 2%; if XRP rises by 1%, it strives for a loss of approximately 2%. Teucrium warned that the product is specifically designed for short-term trading and that daily compound interest could cause long-term returns to deviate significantly from the cumulative performance of-XRP.

Bullish XRP Fund is far ahead

This extension is in sharp contrast to Teucrium's existing 2 times long daily XRP ETF (code: XXRP). XXRP is listed and traded on the Arca Market on the New York Stock Exchange and seeks to achieve twice the daily return of XRP through derivatives instruments rather than directly holding XRP in cash. Teucrium described the fund as a tactical product for traders seeking to amplify XRP exposure.

As of September 9, the size of assets managed by XXRP was approximately US$151.5 million, up from approximately US$78 million in mid-August. That means its asset base doubled in less than a month. However, some of the growth also reflects the impact of market performance and investor capital flows.

According to ETF Central data, XXRP's year-to-date capital inflows are approximately US$103 million.

XRP ETF demand exacerbates long-short contrast

This divergence of long and short strategies is particularly interesting because broader demand for XRP funds has been showing extraordinary resilience.

US spot XRP ETFs have continued to attract capital inflows in the near term, while Bitcoin, Ethereum and Solana related products have seen outflows. On September 8 alone, XRP recorded a net inflow of $1.55 million, continuing the institutional demand momentum that had previously driven cumulative net inflows to approximately $1.68 billion.

This follows an 11-day inflow period during which approximately $170 million entered the XRP ETF, including $14.38 million on September 1. While XRP itself struggled to sustain recent gains, the broader XRP ETF inflow trend continued.

Participation by Wall Street institutions is also increasing. Goldman Sachs, Jane Street and Millennium Management are now among the holders of the XRP ETF, with Goldman disclosed an estimated exposure of approximately $87.4 million. Expanding institutional ownership helps explain why XRP-linked products are increasingly appearing in traditional U.S. fund structures.

On September 12, XRP was trading close to $1.36, having previously recovered after hitting a low of about $1.32 on September 11.

For Teucrium, the current situation is quite unique: its leveraged bullish XRP product already controls more than $150 million in assets, while the proposed-2x bearish counterpart product is still stuck in the registration process and will not take effect until at least October 11.
