XRP has recorded strong institutional interest despite the broader market sentiment being weak. 

One of the first asset managers to launch a spot XRP ETF in the U.S., Canary Capital, stated that its product, XRPC, has reached $336 million in net assets under management (AUM).  

The AUM exceeded that of the remaining spot ETFs combined, an update Steven McClurg, founder of Canary Capital, linked to rising investor demand. He added, 

XRP ETFs eye $700M in net inflows

As of press time, there are four spot XRP ETFs that are already live in the U.S.: Grayscale’s GXRP, Franklin Templeton’s XRPZ, Bitwise’s XRP, and Canary’s product. 

Since their debut in mid-November, the products have attracted nearly $700 million in cumulative inflows and not a single day of net outflows.

The overall net assets have also jumped to $687 million and could easily cross $1 billion by the end of the year if the pace of institutional demand remains the same. 

Reacting to Canary’s outperformance, Nate Geraci, Co-Founder of the ETF Institute, linked the growth to the ‘first-mover’ advantage. 

This raises the question: How have institutional flows impacted XRP markets and its price? 

Impact on XRP markets

The sentiment was still mixed after the ETFs debuted. Notably, the Funding Rates turned positive in the second half of November, but have been flipping between positive and negative in the past few days. 

This meant that Futures traders were initially positive and bullish after the ETFs debuted, but have since turned more neutral, adopting a wait-and-see approach to gauge the market’s next move ahead of the Fed rate decision.

End-of-year XRP price targets

However, the positioning by large players in the Options markets illustrated heavy hedging and protection for downside moves to $2.0 or $1.8.

Notably, the Put/Call Ratio was at 1.81 (above 1), indicating more demand for puts (bearish bets) over calls (bullish bets).

Even worse, the players weren’t expecting a sharp move above $3 in December, with the market pricing only 7% chance for such an outcome.

Final Thoughts

  • U.S. spot XRP ETFs have recorded nearly $700 million in cumulative inflows

The post Hoskinson to Attend Senate Roundtable on Crypto Regulation appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Hoskinson confirmed for Senate roundtable on U.S. crypto regulation and market structure. Key topics include SEC vs CFTC oversight split, DeFi regulation, and securities rules. Critics call the roundtable slow, citing Trump’s 2025 executive order as faster.

According to Terrett, the group will meet with the Senate Banking Committee leadership in a roundtable to continue talks on market structure regulation. Meanwhile, Terrett noted that the meeting will be held on Thursday, September 18, following an industry review of the committee’s latest approach to distinguishing securities from commodities, DeFi treatment, and other key issues, which has lasted over one week.  Related: Senate Draft Bill Gains Experts’ Praise for Strongest Developer Protections in Crypto Law Notably, the upcoming roundtable between US legislators and crypto industry leaders is a continuation of the process of regularising cryptocurrency regulation in the United States. It is part of the Donald Trump administration’s efforts to provide clarity in the US cryptocurrency ecosystem, which many crypto supporters consider a necessity for the digital asset industry.

One such user criticized the process, describing it as a “masterclass in bureaucratic foot-dragging.” According to the critic, America is losing ground to nations already leading in blockchain innovation.
