Canada Opens Up Options Trading on XRP ETFs to US Investors
Canada has taken another step forward in XRP adoption by allowing options on Canadian XRP ETFs to be traded in the US, following regulatory approval from the Canadian Derivatives Clearing Corporation. This move provides US investors with access to XRP volatility through regulated products.
The development builds on Canada's pioneering launch of physically backed spot XRP ETFs in 2025 and reflects growing institutional confidence in regulated crypto products.
Major Canadian banks, such as National Bank of Canada and Bank of Montreal, have begun modest investments in XRP ETFs. The cross-border expansion could influence US regulatory approaches and broaden XRP's market reach.
