The exchange-traded funds (ETFs) market is throwing up a few surprises as institutional investors hold off from committing their funds into XRP. In the last 24 hours, despite the asset’s price uptick, the XRP ETF has recorded zero inflows.
XRP ETF records zero inflows after recent institutional outflows
As per SoSoValue data, the total daily net inflow on the last trading day of March 2026 was $0. The figure is not an April Fools' Day prank as XRP continues to battle volatility on the institutional front over the last four trading days.
About 48 hours ago, the XRP ETF recorded massive bleeding as $2.31 million worth of investment exited the ecosystem. The development signaled capital outflow to other, more viable assets by these institutional holders.
Optimists, however, see the glass as half full, considering that the zero dollar suggests patience from investors in the space. Earlier, in mid-March, the XRP ETF had logged a 151% spike in outflows as $76.1 million worth of investment exited despite a rebound move in price metrics.
The only concern in some segments of the market is that, in spite of XRP’s price increase, there was no investment. Some investors believe the market could shift in favor of inflows soon.
Perhaps these institutional traders are monitoring price movements to be sure that XRP’s uptick is not an April Fools' prank. The coin has climbed from a daily low of $1.31 to a peak of $1.36 in the last 24 hours, with the broader market recovery suggesting more upside.
XRP price climbs despite institutional caution
As of this writing, XRP exchanges hands at $1.35, which represents a 3.24% increase in the last 24 hours. The coin’s trading volume has also climbed by 7.8% to $2.01 billion, suggesting rekindled interest from market participants.
Notably, XRP, like other altcoins, is benefiting from Bitcoin’s rise amid easing macro tensions. If the leading crypto asset continues to soar and breaks above $69,000, it could support further altcoin inflows, which might benefit XRP.
With XRP ETF investors cautiously bullish, traders will have their eyes on the price movement of the coin. If XRP breaks the $1.38 resistance, the asset could retest the $1.50 level. However, if the $1.31 support gives way, XRP risks a return to the $1.25 to $1.30 range.
With April and May traditionally bullish months for XRP, many market participants are hopeful the coin could regain its upward price momentum.
