XRP Price Drops 7.9% But XRP ETFs Record Net Inflows for 15 Consecutive Trading Days

On-chain activity on U.S.-based spot XRP exchange-traded funds (ETFs) remains high after recent weeks of heightened accumulation. According to the data shared today by market analyst Ash Crypto, XRP ETFs have purchased $861.3 million worth of XRP tokens in the past 15 days, equivalent to 1% of the supply, highlighting institutional interest in these crypto funds.

The accumulations occurred at a time when XRP still trades in sideways movements, currently hovering at $2.03, down 1.2% and 7.9% over the past 24 hours and seven days, respectively. In short, the accumulation activity is a reflection of positive signs for the XRP market as institutions are positioning themselves for an XRP rally.

Franklin and Canary Lead in Institutional Demand For XRP  

Although the funds based on XRP have much lower levels of assets under management compared to Bitcoin and Ethereum, they are currently recording an increasing accumulation trend. The funds continue their strong post-launch streak, registering their 15 consecutive days of net inflows since debuting their trades last month on November 14, 2025.  

According to the latest metrics from market analyst SoSoValue, the XRP ETFs experienced a net inflow of $12.84 million on Friday, December 5. During that day, Franklin XRP ETF XRPZ pulled in the biggest amount of the inflows, valued at $5.70 million. Furthermore, the funds attracted $10.23 million in inflows on Thursday, with the Canary XRP ETF (XRPC) absorbing the majority of the inflows worth $4.97 million.

The latest net inflows make all XRP ETFs currently hold $874.28 million in their AUMs, compared to Bitcoin ETFs, which currently manage $122 billion in their AUMs, while Ethereum ETFs hold $18.7 billion under management.

The remarkable 15-day run makes the XRP ETFs one of the fastest-rising categories of crypto funds. Their ability to reach the $1 million milestone within their first 30 days in service could be seen as an indicator of massive adoption and significant liquidity for the asset within TradFi markets.

Why XRP Price Down Despite ETF Record

XRP institutional demand continues to grow, as indicated by XRP issuers buying significant amounts of tokens daily. The ETF flows are becoming a significant force influencing XRP price movements. As investors flock to the funds tracking prices of XRP, analysts expect the market to experience steady surges in prices. On the contrary, ETF outflows typically come with price declines.

Specifically, in the last 15 days, interest in XRP ETFs increased, resulting in massive inflows. The increase is part of the catalysts behind XRP’s price growth in the past two weeks. According to metrics from CoinGecko, XRP recorded a 6.0% price rise in the last 14 days, partly contributed to by the ETF inflows. However, due to interplays of macroeconomic and sentiment factors, XRP is still down.
