Another Institution Just Filed for XRP Exposure

Institutional interest in XRP continues to grow. Brookstone Capital Management, an Illinois-based investment firm, disclosed a position in the Volatility Shares Trust XRP ETF (ticker: XRPI) in its most recent 13F filing with the SEC.

Crypto commentator Xaif (@Xaif_Crypto) highlighted the disclosure, noting that Brookstone holds 12,380 shares valued at approximately $71 million. His post called it evidence that “institutions are quietly stacking XRP.”

About the ETF

It is worth clarifying that this is not a new ETF filing, as Xaif suggested. A 13F is a quarterly holdings report that reveals positions institutions already hold. The same form revealed Goldman Sachs’ position as the largest spot XRP ETF holder a few months ago.

Brookstone’s disclosure confirms that the firm has taken a position in the Volatility Shares Trust XRP ETF, an actively managed Nasdaq-listed fund that launched in 2025. It seeks capital appreciation by investing primarily in XRP futures contracts, giving investors regulated exposure to XRP without requiring them to hold the underlying asset directly.

Rising Institutional Adoption

Brookstone joins a broader wave of institutions gaining exposure to XRP through regulated products. U.S. spot XRP ETFs, which launched in November 2025, did not record a single net outflow day in their first month. By early December, assets under management had crossed $1 billion.

Multiple spot XRP ETFs now trade in the U.S., with approximately $1.44 billion in cumulative net inflows since launch.

XRP ETFs Enjoying Inflows

That institutional appetite held firm even as capital fled Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs. Bitcoin ETFs suffered record outflows of more than $4 billion in June, while Ethereum ETFs saw $528.99 million exit over the same period. XRP ETFs added $59.4 million that same month. XRP spot ETFs extended the inflow streak to eight consecutive weeks through June 26, while Bitcoin ETFs continued shedding hundreds of millions.

Why the Data Is Important to XRP Holders

Brookstone’s 13F disclosure is one data point, but it reflects a larger pattern. Institutions across the spectrum, from large banks to smaller advisory firms, are gaining exposure to XRP through regulated products rather than direct custody.

The Volatility Shares XRPI fund gives investors a futures-based entry point, while spot ETFs of the asset continue absorbing capital with remarkable consistency. The inflow data suggests this is a deliberate, sustained allocation trend, not a short-term trade.
