[DigitalToday reporter Jinju Hong (홍진주)] XRP-linked exchange-traded funds (ETFs) recorded $15 million in net inflows over the past week, showing the most notable money flows among cryptocurrency investment products. This contrasted with outflows from bitcoin ETFs and Solana investment products.

On Aug. 2 (local time), blockchain media outlet U.Today reported that XRP ETFs saw total net inflows of $15 million over the past week. Over the same period, bitcoin ETFs recorded net outflows of $600,000, and $17 million left Solana investment products. Ethereum ETFs posted net inflows of $400,000.

These flows show that demand in the crypto ETF market is diverging by asset, rather than moving in the same direction across the board. Data shared by market analyst Carpe Noctom also showed that only XRP-related investment products maintained relatively strong inflows.

The contrast with Solana was particularly pronounced. Solana recorded the largest weekly net outflow among major crypto investment products despite continued developer activity and ecosystem expansion. XRP, by contrast, was seen as supported by broader institutional access through regulated investment products in multiple countries and added expectations for growth in the Ripple ecosystem.

Weekly inflows strengthened toward the end of the period. On July 31, XRP spot ETFs posted net inflows of $7.11 million in a single day, the largest for the week. Another $5.57 million came in on July 30, drawing about $12.7 million over two days. With most weekly net inflows concentrated in that span, institutional buying was seen as intensifying late in the week.

A notable point was the lack of meaningful net outflows. Net inflows totaled $547,000 on July 29 and $533,000 on July 27, while $5.09 million and $2.27 million flowed in on July 21 and July 20, respectively. Overall, the assessment was that steady accumulation continued rather than short-term profit-taking.

On a cumulative basis, growth in XRP spot ETFs has also continued. Total net inflows since launch reached about $775.5 million. As a result, XRP ETFs are being assessed as among the products showing the most resilient money flows in the crypto ETF market recently.

Markets see these selective inflows as an indicator for gauging the medium- to long-term competitiveness of XRP ETFs. Still, with a significant share of this week's net inflows concentrated in the final two days of the week, whether this buying persists next week is being cited as a key point to watch.
