XRP ETFs Attract $110 Million as Price Retreats Below $1.37

What to Know

• XRP ETFs attracted $110.49 million during the week, recording their strongest weekly inflow of 2026 amid renewed institutional demand interest.
• XRP retreated to $1.37 from $1.60 as sellers secured profits, creating divergence between ETF demand and spot market performance levels.
• Sustained subscriptions could support XRP through reduced supply, but stronger buying pressure remains necessary to challenge the $1.60 peak again.

 

XRP exchange-traded funds recorded $110.49 million in weekly inflows, marking their strongest weekly performance of 2026. According to SoSoValue data, daily inflows rose from zero on August 14 to over $28 million on August 26.

This reversal ended a period of limited participation marked by extremely low or zero inflows across several trading sessions. However, participation weakened considerably when market volatility encouraged investors to reduce exposure and await clearer price direction.

XRP’s recent breakout changed that pattern by drawing substantial capital back into regulated cryptocurrency investment products. Consequently, the funds reached participation levels resembling those recorded around their initial market launch.

XRP Price Weakens Despite Strong ETF Demand

The $110.49 million total represents the highest weekly inflow recorded across the XRP ETF market this year. Significantly, this performance shows that institutional demand strengthened even as XRP struggled to preserve its recent gains.

XRP traded near $1.37 following an approximately 1% decline during the latest 24-hour reporting period. The asset previously reached $1.60 as increased buying activity supported its advance from lower price levels.

However, sellers gained control near that peak as traders secured profits accumulated during the rally. This decline created a notable difference between growing ETF demand and XRP’s immediate performance across cryptocurrency exchanges.

Fund allocations may represent longer investment plans, while spot prices react quickly to leverage, liquidity, and wider market sentiment. Additionally, broader cryptocurrency weakness can restrict XRP’s performance despite stronger demand from institutional investment products.

Repeated ETF subscriptions could support XRP if fund managers purchase additional tokens to back newly created shares. Consistent subscriptions would indicate stronger institutional conviction rather than demand driven only by a temporary price breakout. Nevertheless, XRP must regain stable support and renewed buying pressure before challenging its recent $1.60 peak.
