REX-Osprey’s XRP exchange-traded fund, which launched on September 18, 2025, as part of a dual debut with Dogecoin, attracted more than $24 million in just over an hour after going live, outpacing the volumes that XRP futures products recorded on their first day.

Summary
  • REX-Osprey XRP ETF debuted on September 18, 2025 alongside one for Dogecoin.
  • The XRPR ETF recorded a decent $24 million in volume within 90 minutes, with Bloomberg’s Eric Balchunas noting this outpaced volumes for XRP futures ETFs.

REX-Osprey launched its spot XRP and Dogecoin exchange-traded funds in the United States, the first such ETF listings for the two coins on Thursday, September 18. The ETFs, which offer investors spot exposure to XRP and DOGE, came amid high anticipation from the crypto community.

Within 90 minutes of trading, the REX-Osprey XRP ETF with ticker XRPR on Cboe surpassed $24 million, Bloomberg senior ETF analyst Eric Balchunas noted via X.

According to the analyst, the volume XRPR registered in just one and half hours of trading surpassed that of any of the previously-launched XRP (XRP) futures products.

XRP and Dogecoin prices gain

REX-Osprey, which is a strategic partnership between REX Shares and Osprey Funds, has adopted the 1940 Act approach for the both XRPR and REX-Osprey Dogecoin (DOGE) ETF, trading on Cboe under DOJE. 

The DOJE debut brought the first-ever Dogecoin ETF to the market, a scenario that has Dogecoin price up more than 16% in the past week and nearly 8% in the past 24 hours as it trades towards $0.30. Meanwhile, XRP price hovers around $3.11, after it rose amid XRPR launch anticipation. Slight gains over the past 24 hours see buyers target a move towards the Ripple token’s all-time high. 

Both DOJE and XRPR come in the wake of REX-Osprey’s rollout of the REX-Osprey SOL + Staking ETF on July 2, 2025. The SSK fund combines spot Solana (SOL) exposure and staking rewards. As of Sept. 18, the ETF held over $275 million in assets under management.

Breaking: CME Group Unveils Solana and XRP Options

CME Group launches Solana and XRP options, expanding crypto offerings. SEC delays Solana and XRP ETF approvals, market awaits clarity. Strong institutional demand drives CME’s launch of crypto options contracts. In a bold move to broaden its cryptocurrency offerings, CME Group has officially launched options on Solana (SOL) and XRP futures. Available since October 13, 2025, these options will allow traders to hedge and manage exposure to two of the most widely traded digital assets in the market. The new contracts come in both full-size and micro-size formats, with expiration options available daily, monthly, and quarterly, providing flexibility for a diverse range of market participants. This expansion aligns with the rising demand for innovative products in the crypto space. Giovanni Vicioso, CME Group’s Global Head of Cryptocurrency Products, noted that the new options offer increased flexibility for traders, from institutions to active individual investors. The growing liquidity in Solana and XRP futures has made the introduction of these options a timely move to meet the needs of an expanding market.

Rapid Growth in Solana and XRP Futures Trading CME Group’s decision to roll out options on Solana and XRP futures follows the substantial growth in these futures products. Since the launch of Solana futures in March 2025, more than 540,000 contracts, totaling $22.3 billion in notional value, have been traded. In August 2025, Solana futures set new records, with an average daily volume (ADV) of 9,000 contracts valued at $437.4 million. The average daily open interest (ADOI) hit 12,500 contracts, worth $895 million. Similarly, XRP futures, which launched in May 2025, have seen significant adoption, with over 370,000 contracts traded, totaling $16.2 billion. XRP futures also set records in August 2025, with an ADV of 6,600 contracts valued at $385 million and a record ADOI of 9,300 contracts, worth $942 million. Institutional Demand for Advanced Hedging Tools CME Group’s expansion into options is a direct response to growing institutional interest in sophisticated cryptocurrency products. Roman Makarov from Cumberland Options Trading at DRW highlighted the market demand for more varied crypto products, enabling more advanced risk management strategies. Joshua Lim from FalconX also noted that the new options products meet the increasing need for institutional hedging tools for assets like Solana and XRP, further cementing their role in the digital asset space. The launch of options on Solana and XRP futures marks another step toward the maturation of the cryptocurrency market, providing a broader range of tools for managing digital asset exposure. SEC’s Delay on Solana and XRP ETF Approvals While CME Group expands its offerings, the broader market is also watching the progress of Solana and XRP exchange-traded funds (ETFs). The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has delayed its decisions on multiple crypto-related ETF filings, including those for Solana and XRP. Despite the delay, analysts anticipate approval may be on the horizon. This week, REX Shares and Osprey Funds are expected to launch an XRP ETF that will hold XRP directly and allocate at least 40% of its assets to other XRP-related ETFs. Despite the delays, some analysts believe that approval could come soon, fueling further interest in these assets. The delay by the SEC has left many crypto investors awaiting clarity, but approval of these ETFs could fuel further momentum in the Solana and XRP futures markets.
