XRP ETF Inflows Collapse 93% As Price Capitulates
Crypto Pundit WF (@WhaleFUD) recently highlighted a sharp decline in XRP ETF activity, noting that inflows have collapsed by 93% as the token’s price weakens. This development follows months of strong institutional interest since the U.S. spot XRP ETFs launched in late 2025.
XRP ETF History Since Late 2025
Spot XRP ETFs began trading in November 2025 with several major issuers entering the market. Products from Canary Capital, Bitwise, Franklin Templeton, Grayscale, and 21Shares quickly drew attention from institutional investors.
Early inflows were strong, with assets under management surpassing $1 billion within weeks of launch. In late 2025, ETFs posted daily inflows over multiple weeks, reflecting consistent demand and confidence in XRP as an investment vehicle.
Despite some brief turbulence, the momentum continued in 2026. Weekly inflows reached notable heights in early February, indicating sustained investor interest.
ETFs provided an alternative route for institutions to access XRP while locking tokens into fund custody, reducing circulating supply. Even amid minor market volatility, these inflows supported market stability and reinforced XRP’s adoption among financial participants.

XRP ETF inflows collapse 93% as price capitulates

XRP’s Recent Struggles
Despite the early surge, inflows have slowed sharply in recent weeks. WF reported a 93% collapse in ETF inflows coinciding with downward pressure on XRP’s price. The price decline has reinforced the slower momentum in capital entering the ETFs, creating a temporary pause in institutional accumulation.
ETF momentum surged despite falling prices in late 2025. After a strong performance in early 2026, the token faced pressure. Market data shows that ETF flows now mirror this price performance. While this represents a slowdown in short-term activity, it aligns with cyclical shifts commonly seen after rapid growth phases in new investment products.
Recovery Potential for ETFs
Looking ahead, XRP retains strong recovery potential. The combination of established ETF products and institutional familiarity positions the token for renewed inflow activity once market conditions improve.
Price movements could recover in tandem with ETF demand, as funds are likely to continue capitalizing on regulated access to XRP. The foundation built since late 2025 provides a durable base for growth.
Recent inflow declines reflect a temporary slowdown rather than a structural issue. XRP ETFs have proven their ability to attract significant institutional investment. As the market adjusts, both ETF inflows and XRP’s price are poised to recover, offering investors renewed opportunities.
