Key Insights:

  • XRP ETFs record only 4 inflow days in March, signaling weaker demand.
  • Bitwise XRP ETF posts $25.9M loss due to unrealized price decline.
  • Regulatory clarity grows, but investor sentiment remains cautious.

Despite a strong start in 2026, XRP ETFs have seen a surprising slowdown, suddenly hitting a rough patch. In March, the investment products, after being attractive initially, have seen a notable decline in inflows.

Reportedly, XRP ETFs have seen only a few positive days in March. This raises concerns over the changing investor sentiment.

XRP ETFs Inflow Slows Down in March

According to the latest reports, the XRP ETF inflows in March are significantly less compared to its previous positive sentiment.

The latest inflow is reportedly marked on March 20, with a positive flow of $1.98 million. While other major funds like Franklin Templeton’s XRPZ, Grayscale’s GXRP have seen no inflows, the Canary XRP ETF (XRPC) alone has marked this inflow.

This XRP news indicates that the trend has shifted this month, with around six days of outflows compared to the limited inflow activity. This marks a noticeable slowdown in investor demand after a strong start to the year

This comes in contrast to the Ripple-based investment product’s initial hype in early 2026. The shift suggests that investor enthusiasm may be cooling, with market participants turning more cautious in the short term.

It has also been noted that the combined assets under management (AUM) of these products currently stand at around $1.02 billion. This shows that while interest hasn’t disappeared, momentum has clearly weakened in recent weeks.

Bitwise XRP ETF Reports $25.9M Loss

Amid this waning institutional interest in the Ripple fund, one XRP news item that caught specific attention is the Bitwise ETF net loss of about $25.0 million.

The loss was entirely driven by unrealized losses, meaning the fund hasn’t actually sold the assets but is reflecting their lower market price.

The XRP news also shows that the ETFs did not generate any investment income during this period. As a result, the net loss per share came in at $2.31.

XRP Price Under Pressure

As the XRP ETFs fail to gain attention among institutional investors, the Ripple token is also showing a negative sentiment.

The token is currently in the red zone, trading at $1.44, with a 0.6% dip. However, XRP has surged by 3.4% and 1.8% over the past week and month, respectively.

Regulatory Clarity and ETF Launches Boost XRP Ecosystem

Despite the current negative trend in the XRP token and ETFs, major regulatory developments spark a positive sentiment. Recently, the SEC and CFTC classified XRP and other major cryptocurrencies as “digital commodities.”

This regulatory clarity is indeed poised to bring a major push in the XRP token and investment vehicles.

In addition, the US White House and Senate have finally agreed on a stablecoin yield proposal. This has sparked immense speculation about the potential passage of the CLARITY Act, with the next markup meeting expected in April.

If passed, this crypto bill could bring major changes to the US crypto industry, benefiting major players like XRP.

Also, the launch of multiple XRP ETFs from issuers like Franklin Templeton, Bitwise, Grayscale, 21Shares, and REX Osprey is a positive catalyst as it could attract more asset managers to introduce their Ripple funds. If more funds are launched, it could definitely influence the token.
