21Shares 向 SEC 提交現貨 XRP ETF 申請，旨在將 XRP 引入監管市場

該基金名為“21Shares Core XRP Trust”，旨在讓人們透過受監管的市場投資 XRP，而無需直接購買加密貨幣本身。

Investment firm 21Shares has filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to launch a spot XRP exchange-traded fund (ETF).

投資公司 21Shares 已向美國證券交易委員會 (SEC) 提交申請，推出現貨 XRP 交易所交易基金 (ETF)。

The fund, called the “21Shares Core XRP Trust,” would allow people to invest in XRP on a regulated market without directly buying the cryptocurrency. If approved, the ETF would trade on the Cboe BZX Exchange, making it easier for everyday investors to get exposure to XRP’s market value.

該基金名為“21Shares Core XRP Trust”，允許人們在受監管的市場上投資 XRP，而無需直接購買加密貨幣。如果獲得批准，該 ETF 將在 Cboe BZX 交易所進行交易，使日常投資者更容易獲得 XRP 的市場價值。

The ETF would track XRP's market price using a specific price benchmark from the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME). Coinbase Custody Trust Company would serve as the custodian for the XRP, holding it securely for the fund if the SEC approves the ETF.

該 ETF 將使用芝加哥商業交易所 (CME) 的特定價格基準來追蹤 XRP 的市場價格。如果 SEC 批准該 ETF，Coinbase 託管信託公司將作為 XRP 的託管人，為該基金安全持有 XRP。

21Shares is among several companies that have attempted to launch an XRP ETF. Other firms, such as Bitwise and Canary Capital, have also filed applications with the SEC for similar funds.

21Shares 是嘗試推出 XRP ETF 的幾家公司之一。 Bitwise 和 Canary Capital 等其他公司也向 SEC 提交了類似基金的申請。

The interest in these funds began after the SEC approved spot Bitcoin and Ether ETFs earlier this year, which sparked a wave of applications for various cryptocurrency ETFs.

今年早些時候，美國證券交易委員會批准了比特幣和以太幣現貨 ETF，引發了一系列加密貨幣 ETF 的申請熱潮，人們對這些基金產生了興趣。

However, the SEC has yet to approve any spot XRP ETFs, partly due to its ongoing legal battle with Ripple Labs. The SEC maintains that XRP is a security (like a stock), while a judge recently ruled that XRP is “not a security” when sold on public exchanges. The SEC is appealing this decision, which could delay a final determination.

然而，美國證券交易委員會尚未批准任何現貨 XRP ETF，部分原因是其與 Ripple Labs 正在進行的法律鬥爭。 SEC 堅稱 XRP 是一種證券（如股票），而法官最近裁定 XRP 在公開交易所出售時「不是證券」。美國證券交易委員會正在對這項決定提出上訴，這可能會推遲最終決定。

The SEC may delay a decision on this application, potentially pushing it into the next presidential administration.

美國證券交易委員會可能會推遲對此申請的決定，並有可能將其推遲到下一屆總統政府。

Some crypto supporters hope that if Donald Trump, the Republican candidate, wins the election, he might appoint SEC officials who are more favorable to cryptocurrencies, increasing the chances for XRP ETFs.

一些加密貨幣支持者希望，如果共和黨候選人唐納德·川普贏得大選，他可能會任命對加密貨幣更有利的 SEC 官員，從而增加 XRP ETF 的機會。
