Teucrium's XRP Short ETF Delayed Again: 19 Times and Counting
The Teucrium 2x Short Daily XRP ETF has been delayed 19 times since April 2025, leaving investors wondering why the fund's launch keeps getting pushed back.
The latest filing moves the effectiveness of the product to October 11, 2026. The ETF is designed to deliver approximately twice the inverse of XRP's daily performance, meaning a 1% decline in XRP would theoretically translate into roughly a 2% daily gain before fees and other tracking effects.
The delay has created an unusual contrast in the U.S. market, where leveraged bullish XRP products are already trading. The Teucrium 2x Long Daily XRP ETF, XXRP, is actively traded, with its portfolio including substantial XRP futures exposure.
