What to know:
- U.S.-listed spot XRP ETFs drew $25.8 million in net inflows on Monday, their largest daily haul since early January, bringing cumulative inflows to $1.35 billion.
- The renewed interest follows Ripple’s closing of a $200 million debt facility for its Ripple Prime brokerage and a successful pilot tokenized U.S. Treasury settlement on the XRP Ledger with JPMorgan, Mastercard and Ondo Finance.
- Ripple also unveiled a four-phase plan to make the XRP Ledger quantum-resistant by 2028, even as XRP remains down about 39% over the past six months and well below its July 2025 peak.
XRP exchange-traded funds (ETF) drummed up their biggest inflows since January amid a slew of developments at related company Ripple and favorable price action for the world's fourth-largest token by market capitalization.
The five U.S.-listed spot XRP exchange-traded funds reported a combined $25.8 million in net inflows on Monday, the largest single-day haul since Jan. 5, when they drew $46 million in their first week of trading, according to SoSoValue data.
Franklin Templeton's XRPZ led with $13.6 million, followed by Bitwise's XRP at $7.6 million and Grayscale's GXRP at $4.6 million. Canary's XRPC and 21Shares' TOXR reported no flows for the day.
Cumulative net inflows across all XRP spot ETFs now sit at $1.35 billion, with total net assets at $1.18 billion, representing about 1.3% of XRP's market cap. Every XRP fund rose more than 4% on Monday alongside the underlying token, which climbed 1.2% over 24 hours to $1.47.
The flows come as Ripple announced the successful closing of a $200 million debt facility from funds managed by Neuberger Specialty Finance, the dedicated asset-based investment team within Neuberger, a global investment management firm.
The facility will support the continued growth of Ripple’s multi-asset prime brokerage platform, Ripple Prime, amid rising client demand for institutional-grade prime services and margin financing solutions.
Last week, Ripple said it completed a pilot tokenized U.S. Treasury settlement on the XRP Ledger with JPMorgan, Mastercard, and Ondo Finance, processing the redemption in under five seconds and bridging public blockchain rails with traditional interbank settlement infrastructure.
Separately, Ripple unveiled a four-phase plan to make the XRP Ledger quantum-resistant by 2028, positioning it for a potential "Q-day" when quantum computers can break current cryptography.
The roadmap included an emergency "Q-day readiness" phase that would force a migration to quantum-safe accounts and enable fund recovery using zero-knowledge proofs if quantum threats arrive sooner than expected.
Such institutional use cases may boost sentiment among ETF buyers, because they give XRP a function beyond speculative trading.
Meanwhile, spot bitcoin ETFs are on track for their seventh consecutive week of net inflows, with over $3.4 billion absorbed during the streak. The pattern of bitcoin leading, altcoin ETFs catching the spillover, and ether lagging behind has held through most of the year.
XRP remains down 39% over the past six months despite the ETF interest, with the token still well off its July 2025 all-time high near $3.65.
