XRP ETF flows
An exchange-traded fund buys the coin and issues shares that trade like a stock. An inflow means funds bought that much of the coin, an outflow means they sold. This is the one flow of institutional money into crypto that is visible publicly and daily.
Frequently asked questions
What are XRP ETF flows?
A spot ETF buys the coin itself and issues shares that trade like a stock. A net inflow means the funds took in money and bought XRP that day; a net outflow means they sold. It is the one stream of institutional money into crypto that is published every day.
When is ETF flow data updated?
Funds report after the US market closes, so a trading day's flows appear late that evening or the next morning in Europe. Weekends and US holidays have no flows.
Why do ETF flows matter for the price?
Several days of large inflows mean steady buying from outside the crypto market, and that demand has to be met from exchange supply. Sustained outflows work the other way. Flows are not a timing signal on their own, but they show which way institutional money is leaning.
What does cumulative inflow mean?
It is the sum of all daily net flows since the fund launched. It differs from net assets, which also change with the price of XRP.
