"The great reversal begins after half a year"...Can XRP break its decline with ETF inflows?

▲ XRP

The XRP spot ETF attracted $55.39 million in funds in one week in April, breaking the record for the largest weekly inflow since 2026 and showing a sharp price recovery.

According to a report by U.Today, a cryptocurrency specialized media outlet, the XRP spot ETF recorded a total net inflow of $55.39 million over the past week, marking the strongest capital inflow this year. According to data compiled by the virtual asset market data platform SoSoValue, consistent inflows were observed in all trading sessions last week without any outflows. This is the result of optimistic sentiment among institutional investors stimulating investment sentiment as the price of XRP rose by more than 7% during the same period.

This record is significant in that it completely reversed the trend of continuous outflows due to prolonged market volatility. The XRP spot ETF secured $1.46 million in funds on April 13, recording its weekly low, and then expanded its inflow every day, increasing its scale. As overall market sentiment turned extremely bullish, demand from individual and institutional investors exploded simultaneously.

XRP is now ready to break free from its six-month-long monthly decline, using this capital inflow as a springboard. XRP has recorded negative monthly returns every month from October 2025 to the present, following the massive crash that occurred on October 10, 2025. If the current price rebound and ETF capital inflow trend continue until the end of the month, a monthly return reversal in half a year is expected.

In conjunction with the overall rebound in the virtual asset market, institutional interest in XRP is becoming even stronger. The price recovery of major assets such as Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) has stimulated investors' preference for risk assets. XRP is expanding its position in the altcoin spot ETF market based on its unique inflow trend, accelerating its price discovery phase.

The concentrated inflow of institutional capital strengthens XRP's price support and provides momentum for further increases. Market participants are closely watching the size and direction of real-time inflows to formulate investment strategies. The record-breaking performance of the XRP spot ETF is a key indicator that virtual assets have firmly established themselves as investment assets within mainstream finance.
