XRP ETF defies the trend by attracting funds! Institutions are selling Bitcoin but increasing their holdings of Ripple, with a weekly inflow of $39 million

On February 10th, despite the overall pressure in the cryptocurrency market, XRP performed notably in institutional fund flows. Data shows that during the week of February 2nd to 6th, Bitcoin spot ETFs experienced a net outflow of $318 million, Ethereum ETFs saw redemptions of $166 million, while XRP spot ETFs recorded a net inflow of $39 million, making it one of the few mainstream assets to achieve positive growth.

Among them, Franklin Templeton’s XRPZ attracted $20.5 million, Bitwise’s product received $20.01 million, and Canary’s XRPC also saw inflows of $3.44 million. Since these products launched in November 2025, total fundraising has exceeded $1.14 billion. On February 6th alone, US XRP-related ETFs added $15.16 million in a single day, indicating sustained buying interest.

CoinShares data also confirms this trend. Over the past week, institutional inflows into XRP reached $63.1 million, ranking first among all digital assets; Solana saw $8.2 million, and Ethereum $5.3 million. Meanwhile, the entire crypto investment product market experienced a net outflow of $187 million, with Bitcoin alone seeing a weekly outflow of $264.4 million. Year-to-date, XRP has accumulated inflows of $109 million, while Bitcoin has outflows of $984 million.

Regionally, Germany and Switzerland emerged as major sources of funds, with inflows of $87.1 million and $30.1 million respectively. At the same time, weekly trading volume in crypto ETPs hit a new high of $63.1 billion, indicating a significant increase in institutional trading activity.

On the fundamentals side, Ripple recently received a license from the Dubai Financial Services Authority, allowing it to offer regulated stablecoin payment services within the Dubai International Financial Centre, further expanding its compliant network. The XRP ledger features 3 to 5-second confirmation times and low fees, and has introduced Permissioned DEX upgrades to support institutional settlement and high-frequency scenarios.

In terms of price, XRP is currently trading at $1.39, down 2.8% in 24 hours, but previously surged 26% to $1.54. Changes in fund structure and regulatory developments are gradually causing XRP to replace some Bitcoin positions in institutional allocations, making it a new focal point.
