XRP ETFs See Mixed Inflows as Grayscale Trust Sells $180M of XRP
Institutional interest in XRP products remains active. Cumulative inflows into XRP‑related exchange‑traded funds have reached roughly $1.5 billion, and U.S. spot XRP ETFs recorded about $15.4 million of net inflows over the past week, keeping total assets near $1 billion (about 1.5 % of XRP’s market cap).
The Grayscale XRP Trust disclosed a major sell‑down in its latest SEC filing: 103.41 million XRP – valued at about $180 million – were liquidated to meet redemptions, cutting holdings from 122.23 million XRP at the end of 2025 to 55.04 million XRP by June 30 2026. Net asset value fell from $223.36 million to $57.41 million, with realized losses of $34.16 million and unrealized losses of $17.47 million.
Leveraged exposure also suffered; the ProShares Ultra XRP ETF (UXRP) dropped roughly 95 % from its 52‑week high, trading near $10.30. XRP’s market price hovered around $1.00, with technical analysis flagging bearish momentum and a key support level at $1.00. An AI‑driven forecast projected the token to close August 31 2026 near $1.02.
