Ripple (XRP) ETFs Continue to Outperform BTC, ETH Funds Despite Cooling Inflows
It has been well over 30 days since the first US-based spot XRP ETF with 100% exposure to the asset went live on Wall Street, and the numbers are quite staggering.
Although the net inflows have slowed in the past several days, the streak continues with only green days. Moreover, the XRP ETFs are performing much better than their BTC, ETH, and SOL counterparts.
Streak Endures
Canary Capital’s XRPC launched on November 13 and broke the 2025 trading volume records, with nearly $60 million, while the daily net inflows stood at over $240 million. Four more XRP ETFs followed suit, and data from SoSoValue shows that the cumulative net inflows have risen to just over $1 billion within this timeframe.
What’s even more impressive, perhaps, is the fact that there hasn’t been a single day of net outflows. Although some days have seen net inflows below $10 million, the streak continues more than a month after XRPC’s launch. This is something that neither the Bitcoin nor the Ethereum ETFs were able to do after their respective launches in January and July 2024.
Since November 13, the spot Ethereum ETFs have lost almost $1 billion. The total inflows stood at $13.57 billion back then, but they have declined to $12.64 billion as of December 16. The situation with the spot BTC funds is even more painful. They had $60.21 billion in net inflows as of the opening bell on November 13, but the amount has fallen to $57.27 billion as of yesterday’s Wall Street close.
In other words, while the XRP ETFs have attracted $1 billion, the ETH products have lost almost the same amount, while the BTC funds have seen $3 billion evaporate.
XRP Still Struggles, Though
After analyzing the performance of the spot XRP ETFs in their first month, one can see an apparent discrepancy between the inflows, which are high, and the underlying asset’s movements. Ripple’s cross-border token traded well above $2.50 on the launch day of XRPC.
However, it started to lose value rapidly in the following days and dumped below $2.00 on several occasions, including yesterday. Perhaps a large portion of these losses can be attributed to the overall market crash, but also to the behavior of whales.
Ali Martinez recently updated that these pivotal market participants had sold off almost 1.2 billion tokens in the last four weeks. As such, XRP dropped below the $1.92 support, which opens the door for a potential crash to $1.00, warned the analyst.
