XRP is making waves once again, this time in the institutional investment world. In a recent CNBC segment shared by crypto commentator Xaif, the spotlight turned to XRP’s growing popularity among fund managers and investors. Sal Gilbertie, President and CEO of 2Cream Trading, revealed that a newly launched leveraged XRP derivatives fund has attracted “hundreds of millions of dollars,” making it the most successful fund in the company’s 16-year history. Speaking with CNBC’s Dom Chiu, Gilbertie explained that while 2Cream Trading has traditionally focused on agricultural-based ETFs, the firm pivoted into crypto after witnessing the unmatched momentum behind XRP. “They call it the XRP Army,” he said. “And I see why.” CNBC SPOTLIGHT ON $XRP “Hundreds of MILLIONS have poured in — our most successful fund ever. They call it the XRP Army… and I see why.” “We saw the opportunity and went all-in on XRP derivatives!” $XRP isn’t just a coin — it’s a movement. pic.twitter.com/rJxjgP6c7M — Xaif Crypto | (@Xaif_Crypto) July 29, 2025 A Record-Breaking XRP Fund Launched just 16 weeks ago, the fund, traded under the ticker XXRP, offers leveraged exposure to XRP through derivatives, rather than holding the asset directly. According to Gilbertie, the product immediately took off, drawing an unprecedented level of investor demand. “We’ve never seen a response like that,” he said, noting the scale and speed of capital inflows. While crypto ETFs have largely focused on Bitcoin and Ethereum, this fund marks a significant expansion into alternative digital assets. Gilbertie, an open XRP enthusiast, said the company had previously filed for a Bitcoin product but chose XRP derivatives for this initiative due to its strong use case and devoted community. “Our investors wanted leverage,” he added. “We delivered a vehicle that gives them access to XRP in a way that fits their strategy.” Institutional Interest and Market Confidence This development comes amid rising institutional confidence in XRP, even as regulatory uncertainties linger. Despite Ripple’s ongoing legal skirmishes with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), the fund’s overwhelming success signals that many investors are betting on XRP’s long-term viability and real-world utility, particularly in global payments.

A Defining Moment for XRP The CNBC feature could not have come at a more symbolic time, with a growing number of institutions pouring into XRP-focused financial products, the token is shedding its speculative reputation and stepping into a new role as a serious player in modern finance. Xaif’s viral post brought even more attention to the broadcast, celebrating the milestone as proof that XRP is “not just a coin, it’s a movement.” As regulatory clarity inches closer and financial innovation accelerates, XRP’s expanding footprint in the ETF world may just be the beginning of a much larger shift.
