XRP traders face make-or-break test as spot ETF inflows near $7m

XRP spot ETFs add $6.95m in a day, lifting assets to $1.39b and steadily shrinking circulating supply as crypto trades a high‑beta macro risk regime.

XRP’s spot exchange-traded funds (ETFs) saw another punchy demand spike on January 28, underscoring how traditional wrappers are steadily tightening their grip on the token’s circulating float.​

ETF flows and scale

According to data relayed by PANews, total net inflows into XRP spot ETFs reached $6.95 million on January 28, highlighting what is being described as “significant inflows” into the structure. The Franklin XRP ETF (ticker: XRPZ) led the charge with a single‑day net inflow of $3.13 million, lifting its historical net inflows to $300 million. Grayscale’s GXRP followed with $2.6 million added on the day and $234 million in cumulative net inflows.

As of publication, XRP spot ETFs collectively command a total net asset value of $1.39 billion, with an XRP net asset ratio of 1.19% and cumulative historical net inflows of $1.26 billion. That profile echoes earlier phases when $1b mark, and builds on December’s phase when XRP ETF.​

One community member, reacting to the latest numbers, struck a more skeptical note, claiming “more than $3. BILLIONS came out of xrp on 28/01,” suggesting that on‑chain or spot selling may have offset part of the ETF bid. That tension between ETF accumulation and broader market distribution has also surfaced in earlier analysis warning that persistent demand could supply.​

Market backdrop and prices

This parabolic move comes as digital assets continue to trade as the purest expression of macro risk appetite. Bitcoin (BTC) is hovering around $88,198, with a 24‑hour range near $87,549–$90,477 and roughly $32.8B in dollar volumes. Ethereum (ETH) changes hands close to $2,943, with about $23.9B in 24‑hour turnover. XRP (XRP) itself trades around $1.89, down slightly on the day, with roughly $2.5B in spot volume over the last 24 hours.

Taken together, the latest XRP spot ETF inflows reinforce a simple, uncomfortable reality for bears: as long as traditional products keep pulling tokens off the open market, every risk‑off wobble will have to contend with a structurally thinner float.
