XRP ETFs Topple Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs

Per the latest data by so-so value, XRP ETFs have recorded a net inflow of $2.02M on January 22, while Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs record net inflows worth $298M collectively.

“According to SoSoValue, on January 21 (ET), Bitcoin spot ETFs saw a total net outflow of $709 million yesterday, marking three consecutive days of net outflows, while Ethereum spot ETFs recorded a total net outflow of $298 million. Meanwhile, Solana spot ETFs saw a total net inflow of $2.92 million, and XRP spot ETFs recorded a single-day total net inflow of $7.16 million.

The primary reason why the XRP continues to be in the center of ETF activity is because the diversification between institutional investors continues to peak. XRP ETFs continue to attract inflows as strategic institutional buying favors Ripple rather than short-term trading mechanisms acting up.

Moreover, with the Clarity Bill debuting in the near future, investors are betting on XRP, banking on the rising regulatory developments, which again are helping support its global vision through the rising ETF metrics.
