XRP ETFs See $60.50 Million Record Inflows Despite Price Drop

Investment products tied to the digital asset XRP attracted record capital inflows last week, signaling renewed institutional interest even as the token's price declined. According to data from SoSoValue, U.S. spot XRP exchange-traded funds recorded $60.50 million in net inflows during the trading week of May 11-15, marking the strongest weekly performance of 2026 and surpassing a previous record set in April.

This surge pushed total inflows for May to $94.71 million, already exceeding April's monthly record of $81.59 million. All five available XRP ETF products contributed to the weekly total. The Bitwise fund led with $25.68 million in inflows, while Franklin Templeton's product attracted $21.04 million. The remaining inflows were distributed among funds from Canary Capital, Grayscale, and 21Shares.

The week's performance contributed to a cumulative historical net inflow figure of approximately $1.39 billion for XRP ETFs. Despite these inflows, the price of XRP itself has declined roughly 24% this year and retreated after a brief rally last week. The token attempted to break above $1.54, a level not seen since March, but fell back to trade around $1.42.
