U.S. spot XRP ETFs are closing in on $1 billion in net inflows, positioning them as the most successful altcoin ETF rollout to date and reinforcing a regulatory framework that could serve as a model for future utility-token products. Their rapid growth also highlights Wall Street’s renewed confidence in XRP following the conclusion of Ripple’s legal dispute with the SEC.
Launched on Nov. 14, the funds have posted 15 consecutive days of inflows, accumulating $897.35 million so far, according to SoSo data. Products from Canary Capital, Grayscale, Bitwise, and Franklin Templeton have attracted the majority of new allocations. Quantum Economics founder Mati Greenspan expects the milestone to be reached imminently.
“This momentum is set to continue—the pathway is already cleared,” Greenspan told CoinDesk.
Greenspan noted that XRP’s rising institutional demand is largely a function of timing and positioning. “XRP is being swept up in the broader institutional wave simply because it already has the liquidity, the brand, and now the green light from regulators. That doesn’t necessarily reflect new enthusiasm for the tech itself, but it explains the strong ETF inflows.”
Institutional sentiment has improved markedly since an August court ruling determined that XRP is not a security, even as Ripple was fined $125 million for past securities violations. The verdict provided the clarity many institutional players had been waiting for.
“Institutions are responding to regulatory certainty, XRP’s established market presence, and its long operational history,” Greenspan said. “It may not be innovating as rapidly as some newer networks, but legacy counts.”
Over-the-counter (OTC) desks have also helped sustain flows during recent market turbulence that pressured bitcoin (BTC) and ether (ETH), according to a report from Investing. The stability that OTC channels provide has made XRP ETFs more attractive to institutions compared with the early days of BTC and ETH ETF trading.
If XRP ETFs surpass $1 billion in under a month, it would place them among the fastest-growing crypto investment products to date, signaling rising acceptance and deepening liquidity for the asset across traditional financial markets.
