Key Takeaways
- •XRP ETFs have attracted $666 million in inflows with zero outflow days since trading began.
- •21Shares will enter the market Monday with ticker TOXR, becoming the fifth U.S. spot XRP ETF in days.
- •Locked ETF custody is reducing circulating XRP supply on exchanges as institutional demand accelerates.
The assumption that XRP ETFs would struggle to gain traction has not survived the past four weeks. A cluster of XRP-linked ETFs has absorbed capital at a pace that would have been unthinkable a year ago — and an entirely new entrant is now preparing to join that race.
The surprising part is not that new products are launching. It’s that none of the existing funds have reported a single day of outflows since trading began.
The Inflow Wave No One Expected
Industry trackers show that $666 million has already poured into XRP ETFs in less than 30 days. This flow has lifted total assets to $687.81 million, equal to about 0.52% of XRP’s entire market cap. The biggest spike so far happened on November 14, when the debut of Canary’s product triggered the strongest single-day buying volume recorded in the group.
More recently, another $22.68 million entered the funds yesterday — continuing a pattern of uninterrupted inflows that has now lasted weeks. Because ETF custodians store XRP in cold vaults rather than circulating supply, analysts say that liquidity on spot markets is tightening quietly in the background.
And Now the Market Gets a New Player
Only after the influx trend was already underway did 21Shares step in. A regulatory filing now clears the firm to begin trading its U.S. spot XRP ETF on Monday. It will carry the ticker TOXR and list on the Cboe BZX Exchange, tracking the CME CF XRP-Dollar Reference Rate.
By the time it launches, it will become the fifth XRP ETF to hit the U.S. market in a matter of days, joining products from Grayscale and Franklin Templeton, both of which saw strong day-one demand.
Rather than fighting to be the first, 21Shares is positioning itself to enter a market that already has visible institutional traction.
Not Everyone Is Staying in the Race
Meanwhile, CoinShares — once expected to compete in the same arena — has withdrawn its XRP ETF filing. Multiple amendments were submitted earlier this year before the application was scrapped. Analyst Chad Steingraber has suggested that internal restructuring at the company, rather than weak demand, likely explains the decision.
