XRP ETFs Draw $28M in Fresh Capital, Second-Biggest Intraday Inflow of 2026

XRP ETFs have recorded their second-largest single-day inflow of 2026 as investor demand remains strong despite a recent pullback in the XRP price. 

XRP climbed toward $1.69 last week before meeting resistance at this level, but the subsequent price decline has not stopped investors from putting more funds into XRP exchange-traded funds. Interestingly, these products have continued to attract increasingly large inflows.

According to SoSoValue data, XRP ETFs attracted $28.14 million on Aug. 26. This figure ranks second among their largest daily inflows this year, trailing only the $46.1 million recorded on Jan. 5. 

Bitwise XRP ETF (XRP) led the latest inflows with $13.12 million, accounting for 46% of the total. Franklin XRP ETF (XRPZ) followed with $9 million, while Canary Capital XRP ETF (XRPC) added $6.01 million. However, 21Shares XRP ETF (TOXR) and Grayscale XRP ETF (GXRP) recorded zero flows.

XRP ETFs Record Inflow Streak

The $28.14 million daily inflow extends a strong run that began on Aug. 20, when XRP ETFs started attracting consistent double-digit inflows after several weeks of weaker activity. 

Specifically, the products recorded $13.24 million on Aug. 20 before inflows climbed to $18.38 million the following day. They then slipped to $13.82 million on Monday, Aug. 24, but the decline was only temporary.

Inflows picked up again on Tuesday, Aug. 25, reaching $23.87 million, before rising to $28.14 million on Wednesday, Aug. 26. 

Overall, XRP ETFs attracted $97.45 million across the five trading days since Aug. 20. This five-day total already exceeds the full-month inflows recorded in six of the last seven months. It also represents the strongest intraday inflow streak for XRP ETFs since January 2026.

August Moves Toward Annual Record

The latest streak has also lifted XRP ETF inflows for August to $108.87 million at press time. This figure makes August the second-best month of 2026 for XRP ETF inflows and the fourth-best month overall since these products launched. 

With two trading days remaining in August, continued strong demand could push the monthly figure above the current 2026 record.

This record belongs to May, which registered $131.94 million in inflows. If XRP ETFs maintain their recent pace through the final two trading days of August, the products could therefore set a new monthly inflow record for 2026.

Meanwhile, August has also produced a notable result in trading activity. 

Although the month currently ranks fourth for monthly inflows since XRP ETFs launched, it has already generated the second-highest monthly trading volume, reaching $637.49 million. August now sits within reach of January 2026, which recorded $652.97 million in trading volume.

The impressive activity has pushed cumulative net inflows across XRP ETFs to a new record of $1.62 billion. At the same time, total net assets have climbed to $1.40 billion.
