According to data from XRP Insights, XRP ETFs have seen more than $1 billion in inflows. Moreover, the financial products have seen over $41 million in net inflows in 2026. Despite the high ETF inflow figures, the underlying asset’s price continues to struggle to gain steam. Let’s discuss if XRP can see any positive price action in the coming days.
Will High XRP ETF Inflows Push The Asset’s Price?
ETFs have become a central part of the crypto ecosystem. The US SEC made history in early 2024 after green lighting 11 spot Bitcoin ETFs. Bitcoin (BTC) has since climbed to multiple all-time highs, thanks to increase ETF inflows. XRP’s price could also see a similar pattern. However, the larger market bearishness may be keeping prices at bay.
XRP had quite an explosive year in 2025. Firstly, we saw the settlement of the SEC vs. Ripple lawsuit. The suit was a major reason for XRP’s lackluster performance from late 2020 till late 2024. The settlement led to a big spike in investor sentiment, pushing XRP’s price to a new all-time high of $3.65 in July of last year. Moreover, XRP saw the launch of several spot ETFs in late 2025. However, the ETF launches came during a market downtrend, and prices did not see much movement.
While ETF inflows do dictate higher interest in the asset, the larger bear market environment may keep prices at bay for the time being. Macroeconomic uncertainties and heightened global geopolitical tensions have pushed investors away from risky assets, such as cryptocurrencies. XRP’s price may not see a rally until the larger economy improves and tensions in the Middle East cool off.
