Oh, gather ‘round, my dear readers, for I have a tale of numbers so staggering they’ll make your head spin like a top on a rainy day! The Spot XRP ETFs, those clever little money-making marbles, have leapt over the $1 billion mark in Net Assets!
And if you thought that was impressive, analysts whisper that by 2026, these ETFs might just hoard $10 billion like greedy goblins in a candy shop. Fancy a gold star for predicting that? 🤔
XRP ETFs Hit The $1 Billion Milestone
According to SoSoValue, the magic happened last Thursday when XRP ETFs vaulted past $1 billion in Net Assets. By now, they’ve sprouted to a plump $1.18 billion, like a squirrel hoarding acorns in a financial forest.
Steven McClurg, CEO of Canary Capital, chuckled about this, “SOL might be the smooth operator of on-chain staking, but XRP? That’s the institutional gold rush with no staking bells and whistles. Some folks prefer owning the keys, others the lockbox. To each their own!”
“I expected this. SOL is much more efficient to hold on-chain and to stake directly for retail audiences, whereas XRP has more institutional demand and no staking. As with everything, there will be an audience that prefers direct ownership, and an audience that prefers the ease of financial instruments. Some will do both,” McClurg wrote.
Meanwhile, XRP ETFs have been sipping from the inflow teacup nonstop. $990.9 million poured in, like water into a dam of destiny.
Five brave asset managers-Grayscale, Franklin Templeton, Bitwise, Canary Capital, and the newest pup on the block, 21Shares-have joined the XRP ETF parade, each waving their financial flags with the enthusiasm of a child on a sugar high.
This marks a turning point, or as the grown-ups call it, “regulatory uncertainty lifting like a fog of confusion.” Finally, investors can waltz into XRP through regulated doors instead of tiptoeing through the legal thicket.
Analysts, ever the optimists, grin at the growth. One cheeky soul noted, “This is just 5 spot ETFs. No BlackRock, no 10-15 ETFs yet. But they’re coming, like ants to a picnic!”
“This is just 5 spot ETFs. No BlackRock, No 10-15 ETFs exposure yet. but they are coming,” X Finance Bull posted.
If the inflows keep humming at $200M/week, the ETFs might just balloon to $10 billion by 2026. Imagine that! A supply shock brewing like a thunderstorm in a digital sky. Retailers sell dips, institutions buy value-cue the dramatic music. 🎶
“Now imagine this flow. ~$200M/week. Continuing for the next 52 weeks into 2026. That’s over $10 BILLION in net inflows, with more than 5 BILLION XRP locked at this pace. At that level, the liquid supply becomes a myth. That’s how a supply shock is born. Retail is emotionally selling dips. Institutions are mechanically buying value,” he added.
XRP Long-Term Price Projection and Market Outlook
But here’s the twist! Despite the ETFs’ grand gallop, XRP’s price has been as lively as a soggy pancake. BeInCrypto reports that ETFs and Ripple’s antics haven’t stirred the token’s price much. It’s like trying to tickle a bear with a feather-no reaction!
According to BeInCrypto Markets, XRP has slumped 13% in a month, currently trading at $2.00, down 0.91% in 24 hours. A modest price for a token with such grand ambitions, wouldn’t you say? 😅
Still, some analysts cling to hope. Xaif Crypto, our crypto oracle, says whales are swimming against the tide, gobbling XRP like popcorn at a movie theater.
“Recently, XRP has been in a short-term decline, nearing its lowest price of the year. Nevertheless, XRP whales are leading the order. They are actively trading XRP even as the price has fallen,” he said.
These whales, the sea monsters of the market, are building nests of XRP, plotting their next move. Why? Because they know a rally when they see one-and they’re not waiting for the rest of us to catch up. 🐋
“Whales accumulate before a rally and do not buy during an uptrend. Their active buying indicates that they are preparing for an uptrend in XRP,” he remarked.
All told, the XRP ETFs are a riddle wrapped in a financial mystery. Institutional interest is booming, but the price? Still playing hide-and-seek. Whether the whales’ secret plan works or XRP plummets into the abyss remains to be seen. But one thing’s certain: this story isn’t over. Far from it. 🎢
