US financial behemoth Franklin Templeton, with $1.5 trillion in assets under management, has updated the S-1 filing for its XRP exchange-traded fund (ETF).

 

The S-1 filing is a registration document that an issuer submits to the SEC to introduce a publicly traded product, in this case, an XRP ETF. Section 8(a) of the Securities Act, which allows the regulator to postpone the effectiveness of a registration, is shortened in the revised filing.

Bitwise and Canary Fund both updated their filings before this. The price of the ETF token is still down despite the increasing momentum of the ETF. Amidst a wider correction in the cryptocurrency market, the cryptocurrency has lost over 14% in the last week. The degree of demand that spot-based ETFs encounter will probably determine how much XRP’s price moves in the future.
