Spot XRP ETFs Pull In $1.3M as XRP Slides

U.S. spot XRP ETFs have flipped back to inflows after weeks of redemptions, taking in about $1.3 million most recently even as XRP prices continued to weaken. Fund flows have turned consistently positive over the past week following outflows from March 5–16, according to SoSoValue data highlighted by BSCN. The renewed buying has drawn attention as a potential change in how investors are gaining exposure to XRP through regulated products. Since their debut in November 2025, spot XRP ETFs have amassed more than $1.4 billion in cumulative net inflows, Bloomberg analyst James Seyffart said. The demand has held up despite XRP falling roughly 33% over the past 90 days, with the token trading near $1.38 at the time of writing. Bloomberg senior ETF analyst Eric Balchunas called the inflows notable given the magnitude of XRP’s drawdown, attributing the steady bid to highly committed holders rather than short-term retail activity. The dynamic stands in contrast to traditional safe havens. JPMorgan said gold ETFs saw nearly $11 billion in outflows over a three-week stretch into March, with silver products posting similar losses, as higher rates and a stronger dollar weighed on the sector. Over the same period, crypto-linked funds gained ground, with JPMorgan estimating Bitcoin spot funds brought in about 1.5% in new assets during recent geopolitical tensions. Market participants increasingly frame Bitcoin and XRP exposure as an alternative to conventional hedges. On the XRP side, inflows also reflect easier access following Ripple’s court win against the U.S. SEC, with CEO Brad Garlinghouse pointing to the shift as evidence of longer-term upside. Regulatory approval for spot XRP ETFs has broadened the investor base and, by channeling purchases through ETF creation, has started to tighten available supply. The pattern echoes early U.S. spot Bitcoin ETF rollouts, where consecutive inflows quickly accumulated assets and reduced free-floating supply. By mid-March, net assets in XRP ETFs were approaching $1 billion, about 1.16% of XRP’s market capitalization. Some custodians are reportedly pulling close to 1% of circulating XRP off exchanges to support new creations. With steady inflows, regulatory backing, and rising institutional participation, market watchers expect spot XRP ETFs to remain positioned for further growth in the months ahead.
