Despite the single-day outflow, XRP ETFs continue to rank among the strongest-performing crypto exchange-traded products. Total net assets across these funds remain above $1.5 billion, showing strong investor demand even amid short-term fluctuations.
XRP entered 2026 as one of the strongest-performing major cryptocurrencies, supported by ETF inflows. Earlier this week, XRP gave a sharp 13% upside, moving all the way to $2.4. However, with the flip in ETH flows and overall market sentiment, the XRP price is down 6.27% today, trading at $2.10.

Spot Ether ETFs followed a similar trajectory. The products recorded inflows of $174 million on Jan. 2, $168 million on Jan. 5, and $114 million on Jan. 6, before turning negative with $98 million in outflows on Jan 7.
