Summary
US spot XRP ETFs recorded significant institutional inflows on September 25, 2026, attracting $22.65 million in combined net capital, according to SoSoValue data. Bitwise's XRP ETF led the session with $18.39 million in daily inflows, while Franklin's competing product added $4.26 million. The inflows extended a positive momentum pattern observed two days prior, when the same ETF providers attracted $18.04 million on September 23, suggesting sustained institutional appetite for regulated XRP exposure.
The cumulative performance metrics underscored the growing institutional footprint in XRP products. Bitwise's XRP ETF has accumulated $677 million in net inflows since inception, establishing it as the dominant vehicle for spot XRP exposure through traditional investment channels. Franklin's fund has gathered approximately $501 million in cumulative inflows, demonstrating meaningful traction from a second major provider. Across all spot XRP ETFs, total net assets stood at $1.77 billion, with historical cumulative inflows reaching $1.79 billion.
A notable dynamic emerged between capital flows and price performance: XRP declined despite positive ETF inflows, indicating that institutional buying through regulated investment products did not translate into immediate upward price pressure for the underlying token. This divergence highlights the distinction between ETF capital flows—which represent institutional positioning through regulated vehicles—and spot market price movements. The consecutive days of inflows suggest institutional investors maintained conviction in XRP exposure independent of short-term volatility or broader market headwinds affecting the asset class.
The data reflects broader trends toward institutionalization of cryptocurrency exposure through regulated ETF structures. The two largest providers, Bitwise and Franklin, combined to capture the majority of daily inflows, consolidating their market position as primary gateways for institutional XRP exposure in the spot market.
