Those are not set against each other here, because the two windows are not the same days, so neither is nearer its coin than the other on this page. Each difference carries 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."}},{"@type":"Question","name":"Do XRP or XRPZ pay a staking yield?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"The XRP Ledger settles by a consensus its validators are not paid for, so there is nothing to stake and no fund holding XRP can pay a staking yield."}},{"@type":"Question","name":"What is the difference between XRP and XRPZ?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"Both hold XRP through a custodian and both trade on an exchange, so what separates them is what each costs a holder over time.
