Summary
XRP funds were the only one of the five categories tracked to remain positive for the week, drawing about $740,000 on Wednesday. XRP ETFs have recorded net inflows for 13 consecutive weeks, though the last weekly outflow, about $7.2 million, occurred in the week ending July 10. Cumulative net inflows into XRP ETFs stand at a record $1.80 billion. However, the weekly pace has slowed: the funds added $11.31 million in the week ended October 9, down from $75.6 million in the week ending September 25. Over that same week, bitcoin, ether and Solana funds combined to shed $1.248 billion.
XRP itself traded at $1.31 at the time of the reading, down 5.11% over 24 hours. Analyst Arab Chain noted that 30-day whale inflows to Binance reached 1.669 billion XRP, a seven-month high, but cautioned that the transfers may reflect wallet reshuffling rather than selling.
Ether ETFs shed about $130 million on Wednesday, lifting weekly outflows to $190 million after prior weekly outflows of $542 million and $138 million. Solana funds lost $24.81 million in the week ended October 9 and recorded an eighth straight losing session on Wednesday with a further $1.3 million in outflows, bringing the current week's total to $3 million. Zcash funds were a rare positive on Wednesday with $3.7 million in inflows, though they remain $3.2 million negative for the week.
Bitcoin fell below $82,000 following Wednesday's US Consumer Price Index release, which came in hotter than expected, and traded near $80,741, down 3.2% over 24 hours. Altcoin Buzz argues that the next weekly flow data will be the test for XRP, as sustained redemptions of similar size to recent weeks could end the inflow streak.
