Updated: Jan 08 2026- First Net Outflow: XRP exchange-traded funds (ETFs) recorded a net outflow of $40.8 million on Wednesday, marking the end of a multi-week inflow streak since mid-November 2025, indicating a shift in market sentiment.
- Assets Under Management: Despite the first outflow, XRP ETFs maintain total net assets above $1.5 billion, showcasing their strong performance among cryptocurrency exchange-traded products.
- Market Pressure: The outflow on Wednesday coincided with significant selling pressure across major crypto ETFs, particularly with Bitcoin ETFs experiencing $486 million in outflows, reflecting overall market volatility.
- Investor Sentiment Shift: Analysts caution that while ETF inflows and positive sentiment previously supported XRP's price increase, the first outflow may signal challenges to the sustainability of price appreciation.
