XRP ETFs launched in late 2025 saw unprecedented demand, achieving 43 consecutive days of net positive inflows and surpassing $1.2 billion in total inflows by January. However, the onset of the U.S.-Iran war on February 28 caused a drastic shift, with weekly inflows plummeting from over $200 million to under $1 million by early March. Retail investors dominate XRP ETF holdings, comprising 84% of assets, while institutional participation remains low, with Goldman Sachs being the largest holder. The overall market sentiment shifted negatively, impacting XRP's performance significantly.
"XRP ETFs launched in late 2025 and immediately did something even Bitcoin ETFs couldn't manage-the products went 43 consecutive days of net positive inflows. By January, cumulative XRP ETF inflows had crossed $1.2 billion, making it the second-fastest crypto ETF to hit that milestone after Bitcoin."
"The U.S.-Iran war that started on February 28 pulled the rug from under crypto assets across the board. Weekly XRP ETF inflows dropped from over $200 million at their late-2025 peak to under a million by early March, a decline of more than 99%."
"Bloomberg Intelligence data shows that approximately 84% of XRP ETF assets come from retail investors. For context, Solana ETFs have 48.8% institutional participation, which is more than three times the rate of XRP."
"Goldman Sachs is the largest institutional XRP ETF holder with $153.8 million across four XRP ETFs. This single position accounts for 73% of all disclosed institutional XRP ETFs."
