XRP ETFs Log Fifth Straight Week of Inflows as Crypto Market Withdraws

Exchange‑traded funds focused on XRP recorded a fifth consecutive week of net inflows, drawing about $10.68 million over the last seven days and spreading the capital across three trading sessions. By contrast, comparable Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs posted net outflows during the same five‑week span, signaling a divergence in institutional demand for XRP versus other large‑cap digital assets.

On‑chain activity shows the XRP Ledger’s usage rising 35 % to roughly 2.48 million daily transactions, while tokenized real‑world assets on the ledger surged to about $4.18 billion, a nearly 28‑fold increase from a year earlier. Ripple’s RLUSD stablecoin also grew, adding $340 million in market cap. Large holders moved significant XRP out of Binance—about 465 million XRP between June 3 and June 11—through multiple million‑XRP withdrawals, a pattern that may temper price pressure.

Ripple is advancing a three‑phase quantum‑readiness roadmap aimed at full post‑quantum security by 2028 and has released an AI Starter Kit for machine‑to‑machine payments on the XRP Ledger. Japanese consultancy Remixpoint disclosed that XRP now sits alongside Bitcoin in its corporate treasury, holding roughly 1.2 million XRP as part of a strategy to hedge a weakening yen. These developments point to deepening institutional interest in XRP despite overall market weakness.
