The same coin, two trusts
XRP and XRPC hold the same asset. Both are 1933 Act trusts holding XRP through a custodian, so neither has a portfolio to compare: the whole of each fund is one line. Over the days each has traded, XRP finished 0.51 of a percentage point behind XRP and XRPC 0.06 of a percentage point ahead, but the two windows are not the same days, so neither figure is set against the other here. That gap is the fee, the custody, the creation and redemption friction and the market’s pricing of the shares, compounded into one figure.

XRP in plain words
XRP holds XRP through a custodian and trades on an exchange, so a holder gets the coin’s return inside a brokerage account rather than a wallet. Over the time since it listed to Sep 30, 2026, XRP moved −25.4% and XRP returned −26.0%. That leaves it 0.51 of a percentage point behind. That difference is the fee, the custody cost, the friction of creating and redeeming shares in blocks, and whatever the market paid for the shares rather than for the coin, all of it together. It is the only figure on this page the sponsor does not publish itself. XRP charges 0.34% a year and finished 0.5% behind XRP, so the fee is less than the whole difference and the rest is what the market paid for the shares, which moved against holders. A spot trust is not a registered investment company. It files a 10-K rather than an N-PORT, and its holding is one line: the XRP it custodies.
