Key Takeaways
  • • US spot XRP ETFs recorded $4.25 million in net inflows last week, reversing a $1.84 million outflow the prior week, after 13 consecutive weeks of positive flows.
  • • The inflow occurred while Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Solana ETFs posted net outflows, suggesting selective renewed investor appetite for XRP exposure.
  • • XRP ETF net asset value stands at nearly $1.5 billion, though recent weekly additions remain modest relative to that base.
  • • XRP remains in a long-term downtrend, failing twice at $1.40 descending trendline resistance and falling back toward $1.31.
  • • Liquidation clusters at $1.32–$1.34 and near $1.29–$1.30 are expected to shape near-term price volatility.
Summary
US spot Ripple (XRP) ETFs attracted renewed investor interest last week, according to AMBCrypto, with net inflows of $4.25 million. The funds had recorded positive flows for 13 consecutive weeks before a week of net withdrawals totaling $1.84 million. The return to inflows came even as Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Solana ETFs recorded net outflows, which the report suggests indicates some investors were willing to buy again after a brief pause. The XRP ETF net asset value currently stands at nearly $1.5 billion. The report notes that the latest additions are modest relative to that total, and that continued weekly inflows would be needed to strengthen the case for renewed institutional demand.

On the price side, XRP remains within a long-term downward trending channel, forming lower highs. A relief rally from the $1.2532 low stalled at descending trendline resistance near $1.40, and a second attempt at that level failed in the same manner. Prices then fell back through $1.35 and $1.32 toward $1.3141, and buyers have not yet regained control. The MACD histogram has shown slight positive readings, pointing to possible short-term momentum improvement, though both MACD lines remain below zero. The report argues that recent ETF inflows may cushion selling near support.

According to the article's liquidity heatmap, concentrated liquidation clusters sit between $1.32 and $1.34, and these could be cleared if price advances toward $1.40. A further cluster near $1.29–$1.30 could attract price during a pullback. A break above the $1.32 cluster could significantly increase upside volatility toward $1.40, while a resumption of selling could push prices into lower liquidity zones and amplify downside pressure. For XRP to challenge its bearish structure, the article says it needs sustained ETF inflows and a decisive break through $1.40 resistance.
