Hashdex has launched the world’s first XRP spot ETF — XRPH11. The fund tracks the Nasdaq XRP Index and invests at least 95% of its assets directly in XRP. It targets institutional and advanced investors seeking regulated exposure to the crypto market within Brazil’s capital markets.
The world’s first XRP spot exchange-traded fund (ETF), issued by Hashdex and managed by Genial Investimentos, began trading on April 25 on Brazil’s B3 stock exchange. Listed under the ticker XRPH11, the ETF tracks the Nasdaq XRP Reference Price Index and, according to Hashdex, will allocate at least 95% of its net assets to XRP. The introduction of the fund marked Hashdex’s ninth ETF launch on the Brazilian exchange.
The launch expanded Hashdex’s single-asset ETF offerings on B3, which also includes products based on Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), and Solana (SOL). The asset manager might use direct or indirect investment in futures contracts aimed at replicating the Nasdaq XRP Reference Price Index’s performance or other financial instruments that reflect the price of XRP as defined by Nasdaq’s benchmark to give exposure.

Hashdex launched the world’s first spot XRP ETF managed by Genial Investimentos, marking a pioneering development in Brazil’s crypto investment products. The asset manager tapped Genial Bank SA as the ETF’s custodian.
Samir Kerbage, CIO of Hashdex, disclosed that this was the ninth ETF the asset manager had launched on B3. It expanded the possibilities of diversification and exposure to digital assets with security, transparency, and alignment with regulatory guidelines. According to Kerbage, the fund aims to attract sophisticated investors, including institutions looking to build crypto portfolios on Brazil’s equity market infrastructure.
Brazil represents only 0.9% of the global AUM of crypto ETPs, although Hashdex secured a head start in conquering this market. XRPH11 must find global appeal to reach a notable AUM that will grant Hashdex a spot in the global crypto space. However, JPMorgan’s prediction in January suggested that these products could attract up to $8 billion in net flows, which was over eight times their current AUM size. XRP funds reportedly registered the strongest weekly inflows among other crypto-related ETPs last week, with about $37.7 million allocated.
Brazil previously launched a Solana ETF in 2024, which failed to garner significant attention or trading volume. In this case, XRPH11’s success may not be guaranteed. Still, XRPH11’s underperformance could disappoint investors and affect XRP’s price in the short term.
XRP ETFs are yet to launch in the U.S. despite several U.S. SEC applications
Large asset managers such as Grayscale and Bitwise have applied to launch XRP ETFs registered with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). The Polymarket prediction platform shows a 74% probability that the U.S. will approve a spot XRP ETF sometime in 2025. On March 26, Polymarket gave an 86% chance that an XRP-based ETF product would be approved this year. However, users only have a 42% chance that an XRP ETF will be approved before July 31.
Nate Geraci, the president at ETF Store, said that the approval of an XRP ETF was next. He added that it was ‘obvious’ and only a matter of time before the U.S. SEC approved an XRP ETF. The executive also predicted that asset managers like BlackRock and Fidelity would be involved in offering the asset.
Former U.S. SEC Chair Gary Gensler repeatedly cited the absence of a regulated futures market as a red flag for market manipulation when denying previous altcoin ETF applications. However, introducing the agency’s new pro-crypto Chair, Paul Atkins, means that the U.S. SEC’s go-to excuse for denying altcoin ETFs, at least for XRP, might just have gotten ‘body-checked.’
