XRP-linked products drew about $3.3 million in net inflows over the past 24 hours, while Bitcoin ETFs lost $159 million and Ethereum products shed $64 million. The shift gave XRP a rare daily lead in ETF flows. Even so, its chart stayed weak.
That comparison came with a caveat. XRP’s ETF base is smaller and more sensitive, so modest inflows can skew a daily ranking. One question followed: why are investors still buying XRP?
The report tied that interest to positioning rather than conviction. It said some traders may be using XRP as a mean-reversion or contrarian bet after deep losses and depressed sentiment.
The daily ETF snapshot did not suggest that XRP had replaced Bitcoin as the main institutional trade. Instead, it pointed to capital rotation during a session marked by heavy outflows elsewhere.
The report said XRP’s smaller product structure can magnify daily changes. In that setup, a few million dollars can appear large beside far bigger Bitcoin and Ethereum vehicles.
It also noted that the flow gap may say more about Bitcoin’s pace of outflows than fresh leadership from XRP. On a single-day basis, XRP led. The market as a whole still appeared uneven in scale.
The report described XRP’s chart as fragile. It said the asset remained below key moving averages, failed to print higher highs, and continued to show a prolonged downtrend.
That weakness made the inflows harder to read as a bullish signal. The text said ETF demand can show interest, yet it does not confirm price strength by itself. It also said regulatory clarity in some jurisdictions keeps XRP accessible for institutional products.
The text added that average traders were reportedly down more than 40%. At the same time, sentiment remained deeply depressed. That backs a rebound trade more than a broad change in conviction.

Attention then shifted to an X post from business owner and crypto enthusiast Minus Wells. Wells said Evernorth had accumulated more than 473 million XRP, close to 0.5% of the total supply, for its treasury.
He described the position as one of the largest known corporate XRP holdings. He also tied the company to a possible Nasdaq debut under the ticker XRPN and said the accumulation could continue.
Wells called Evernorth the “MicroStrategy of XRP” and shared a video featuring Asheesh Birla. The video laid out four predictions for 2026 and a wider institutional push into blockchain use.
Birla said corporate treasuries will use decentralized finance and artificial intelligence to automate back-office work. He said those tools can reduce reliance on intermediaries and improve global financial management.
He also predicted the rise of local currency-backed stablecoins alongside dollar-based options. He said that the shift could help form an on-chain foreign exchange market and challenge parts of the existing FX system.
Birla cited projections that stablecoin market value could grow from about $300 billion to as much as $100 trillion. He also said NFTs may return through utility, combining ticketing, loyalty, and digital identity for brands, sports groups, and entertainment firms.
XRP posted the strongest daily ETF inflow performance, even as Bitcoin and Ethereum saw sharp outflows. At the same time, Evernorth’s reported XRP treasury position added fresh attention to the asset. The key takeaway is that XRP is drawing interest, but price structure still matters.
