• The XRP Trust of Grayscale shows the increasing institutional adoption of these assets and particularly those with real use cases – particularly for international transactions.
• Availability of the trust to only accredited investors is cardinal to the present state of regulations in the cryptocurrency investment market.
• XRP was able to carve a niche for itself in conducting cross-border payments efficiently by lowering the time and saving the investors from the hassle of complicated regulatory compliance.

Digital asset management company with significant net volume Grayscale investments has recently publicly declared the opening of its XRP Trust to the accredited buyers and investors. With this new investment product, investors can now easily invest in cryptocurrency known as XRP which is used in the XRP Ledger. This announcement is several weeks soon while the use of cryptocurrencies as well as blockchain technology increases dramatically across the globe especially in cross border settlements.

XRP and the Cross-Border Payments Market

The digital asset named XRP, the heart of this new trust, is primarily associated with the XRP Ledger. It is a distributed financial system aimed at providing optimum solutions to cross border transactions. On their part, the financial institutions are interested in ways to cut on the time and costs involved in Transfers in cross border remittances. This can be achieved using Ripple’s XRP assets. 

That cryptocurrencies tend to dominate the space in the financial services sector is making institutions provide structures for specialization such as the XRP Trust where investors are increasing their spending on the specific funds.

Accredited Investors  and Regulatory Context

Grayscale claims that the XRP Trust will only be available to accredited investors as a result of its compliance with regulation. Accredited investors generally maintain passing criteria in terms of their income or net worth, outlined by the SEC. It will also seek to woo institutional investors, the super-rich, or anyone interested in investing in different classes of assets such as cryptos. Despite this, Grayscale’s decision marks growing institutional involvement in digital currencies although retail investors will have no direct access to the trust.

Grayscale initiates the XRP Trust account at a time when the regulations surrounding crypto-assets, especially in the United States, are in discussion. The trust also points to the rising institutional appreciation for network utilities such as the XRP Ledger. But, now, XRP has attracted regulatory attention mainly because of legal issues such as the SEC, which remains ambiguous about this kind of assets. This is a fact worth emphasizing given the constantly developing institutional interest in cryptocurrencies but specifically in those which have visibly practical uses such as XRP.
