Newly launched XRP ETFs (Canary's XRPC and Bitwise's XRP) have drawn solid early trading and inflows, posting volumes in the tens of millions. Yet XRP's spot price has dipped under the key $2 mark, returning to the lows seen after the October 10 crash.

A newly listed spot XRP ETF is outperforming comparable funds and drawing significant attention — including a Times Square unveiling — while XRP’s price remains above $2.10 despite recent market weakness.

Recently launched U.S. spot XRP ETFs have pulled in sizable institutional inflows and renewed optimism, with some analysts forecasting up to $10 billion of demand in month one. Yet derivatives indicators and XRP’s limited circulating supply raise doubts about the rally’s durability and its ability to unseat Ethereum.

Ripple executives, including CTO David Schwartz and engineer J. Ayo Akinyele, are examining native XRP staking and DeFi integrations, proposing a two-tier staking approach intended to enhance XRPL’s security and utility while avoiding excessive Ripple control and preserving the ledger’s core consensus.

Bitwise is launching a spot XRP ETF that will begin trading on NYSE Arca under the ticker "XRP" on Thursday following SEC approval, expanding institutional access and adding momentum to leading crypto assets.

A number of asset managers, including Bitwise, Grayscale and Franklin Templeton, are preparing to launch XRP spot ETFs. The moves signal rising institutional demand, expand investment options beyond Bitcoin-focused products, and could support broader mainstream adoption and improved regulatory acceptance of XRP and crypto investments.

XRP has fallen to roughly $2.10 amid a wider market sell-off and failed to rally after the spot ETF debut. On-chain indicators and bearish technical patterns are raising concern about a breakdown below the $2 threshold, with key supports at $1.91 and $1.73.

Major cryptocurrencies — Bitcoin, Ethereum and XRP — endured steep, retail-driven sell-offs as small wallets offloaded large holdings amid panic. Yet on-chain indicators and analysts view the action as exhaustion rather than systemic collapse, and historically such episodes have often preceded short-term rebounds and buying opportunities.

Engineers at Ripple and RippleX have reopened discussions about XRP's trajectory, considering whether the XRP Ledger should add built-in staking and reassess how value flows, incentive models, and governance operate as adoption and participation grow.

XRP profitability has fallen to its lowest point since November 2024, with around 41.5% — roughly 27 billion tokens — of supply currently underwater. That situation traps many recent buyers and leaves the market fragile, liable to further losses unless catalysts like possible XRP ETFs rekindle bullish sentiment.

Amplify ETFs plans to debut XRPM, a Cboe-listed XRP option-income ETF, on November 18, 2025. The fund will provide exposure to XRP and seeks to produce a 36% annualized option premium by selling weekly covered calls, responding to rising demand for crypto income strategies.

XRP is trading in the $2.00–$2.28 band after a sharp sell-off, forming a pennant that could indicate a bottom, while roughly 30–35% of supply sits underwater and attention is on whether the $2.15 support will hold or snap, risking further losses.

XRP appears to be entering a pivotal phase as several leading asset managers prepare spot XRP ETFs following Canary Capital's robust debut. The activity has stoked talk of additional offerings, including a possible BlackRock ETF, and points to growing institutional demand and an upbeat market outlook for the token.

Market sentiment for XRP has turned distinctly positive: the token remains above crucial support around $2, institutional demand is rising, and several major asset managers are launching or planning XRP ETFs. Some forecasts expect sizable upside from ETF-driven inflows.

Investor sentiment in crypto remains subdued as Bitcoin and other large tokens slide, with many assets showing flat or negative 12-month returns. Risk appetite across the market is muted, yet XRP has bucked the trend — on-chain payment volume spiked, signaling notable liquidity flows amid the broader downturn.

The first U.S. XRP spot ETF started trading on Nasdaq, triggering rapid institutional interest and with more ETFs expected soon. Despite strong demand and landmark significance for XRP after long legal and regulatory fights, early ETF inflows were too small to lift the price, which fell about 8%.

XRP has fallen steeply to roughly $2.26–$2.30 amid a wider crypto market downturn, staying in a bearish phase and far below its $3.65 lifetime peak. Even so, the introduction of a U.S. Ripple ETF and sustained institutional demand have sustained investor confidence in the long run.

Canary Capital’s new spot XRP ETF (XRPC) had a standout U.S. debut, posting about $58 million–$245 million in first-day trading volume, beating expectations, outperforming a Solana ETF, and marking one of the biggest ETF launches of the year despite a bearish crypto market. Sentiment: **Strongly positive for crypto/XRP**.

Crypto markets are slumping sharply: Bitcoin and major altcoins like Ethereum and Dogecoin are falling far from their highs, triggering heavy liquidations. Altcoin ETFs are seeing record trading even as prices drop, while investors increasingly favor traditional safe havens like gold amid rising concerns about government stability.

Canary Capital's XRP-focused ETF, trading under the ticker XRPC on Nasdaq, launched with impressive demand, reaching $26 million in trading volume within the first 30 minutes, highlighting strong interest in XRP.
