XRP ETFs Experience Significant Withdrawals Amid Ripple's Price Decline
A surge in outflows from XRP ETFs marks a challenging period for Ripple as the market reacts to geopolitical tensions.
The recent crypto market downturn has intensified, leading to a notable sell-off in the last 24 hours.
XRP ETFs See Major Outflows
Market participants have started to withdraw from the industry, as evidenced by the ETF outflows in the US on Tuesday, marking the start of the trading week. It’s crucial to note that the initial XRP-focused ETF, designed for full exposure to the asset, was launched not long ago, followed by additional ETFs later in the year. Demand was robust then, with Canary Capital’s XRPC achieving the highest trading volume on its debut day in 2025. Until January 7, funds consistently experienced inflows without a single downturn.
However, they began to bleed out over $40 million before rebounding, showing net inflows once again from January 8 until January 16. That positive trend shifted yesterday when markets reopened, following rising geopolitical tensions between the US and the EU.
According to SoSoValue, investors retracted $53.32 million from the funds, which faced their worst trading day. The overall net inflows fell sharply from $1.28 billion to $1.22 billion in a single session, reversing nearly all the gains accumulated in the previous week.
XRP Price Decline
These outflows have worsened XRP’s recent downtrend. Earlier, the asset soared to a multi-month peak of over $2.40 on January 6, but it has taken a turn for the worse, slipping below the $2.00 support level. Currently, it struggles to remain above $1.90, facing further selling pressures.
