One session earlier, on Oct. 1, that figure was $1.695 billion, so roughly $37 million disappeared from the scoreboard while only $3.28 million actually walked out.<\/p>\n<p>The rest came from the token itself, as XRP traded as high as $1.55 on Oct. 2 before dropping to $1.44 during the late U.S. session. The token is now trading between $1.47 and $1.49.<b\/><\/p>\n<p>In terms of who sold, only the Bitwise XRP ETF (trading under the ticker XRP) accounted for the full $3.28 million outflow, and the rest of the field netted zero that day. Bitwise is still the category\u2019s biggest magnet by cumulative inflows at about $677 million, ahead of Franklin Templeton\u2019s XRPZ at $505 million and Canary\u2019s XRPC at $490 million.<\/p>\n<p>On Sept. 2 flows, Bitcoin.com News reported that a <a href=\"https:\/\/news.bitcoin.com\/bitcoin-etf\/bitcoin-etfs-inflows-hit-101m-as-xrp-ether-and-solana-lose-funds\/\">$7.20 million XRP ETF outflow<\/a> also came entirely from the Bitwise product. As the largest and most liquid fund in the group, it tends to be where tactical money goes in and out first.<\/p>\n<p>That said, the one red day has followed a strong stretch, with the funds pulling in about $75.6 million across Sept. 22 to Sept. 25 and closing September with <a href=\"https:\/\/news.bitcoin.com\/crypto-news\/xrp-etf-inflows-121m-september-net-assets-shrink\/\">$121.4 million of inflows<\/a>. October opened with a $4.07 million inflow into Franklin on day one.<\/p>\n<h2>The Waterline Problem<\/h2>\n<p>Lifetime net inflows into spot XRP ETFs stand at $1.791 billion, yet the funds hold $1.658 billion, about $133 million less than buyers have put in. In other words, the money that went into these products since their launch in late 2025 is now underwater.<\/p>\n<p>Moreover, the gap has been widening (from roughly $100 million a week ago) and Bitcoin.com News flagged on Sept. 30 that XRP fund <a href=\"https:\/\/news.bitcoin.com\/crypto-news\/xrp-etf-inflows-121m-september-net-assets-shrink\/\">assets kept shrinking<\/a> even as inflows piled up, a time when net assets sat at $1.69 billion. Two days later, Solana funds <a href=\"https:\/\/news.bitcoin.com\/market-updates\/solana-etfs-overtake-xrp-funds-1-91-billion-assets\/\">overtook XRP products<\/a> with $1.91 billion in assets, a ranking that inflows alone cannot win back if XRP\u2019s price keeps drifting.<\/p>\n<p>Sentiment has not helped either, given social data cited by Bitcoin.com News showed XRP\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/news.bitcoin.com\/market-updates\/xrp-sentiment-turns-bearish-as-bullish-to-bearish-ratio-hits-0-67\/\">bullish-to-bearish ratio<\/a> falling to 0.67 on the same day the outflow printed.<\/p>\n<h2>The Broader Picture<\/h2>\n<p>XRP did not fall alone with Friday\u2019s slide, which lined up with a reversal in bitcoin\u2019s price, which <a href=\"https:\/\/news.bitcoin.com\/market-updates\/bitcoin-price-taps-87k-sec-moves-unlock-institutional-custody\/\">tapped $87,000 yesterday<\/a> after a <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/Kalshi_Finance\/status\/2106192129714204814\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">weak U.S. jobs report<\/a> showed just 29,000 new payrolls. It then fell to $83,900 during the late session before recovering a little more. XRP\u2019s low came in during the same four-hour window.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/news.bitcoin.com\/market-updates\/xrp-etf-outflow-bitwise-3-28m-assets-drop-37m\/\">Source link <\/a><br \/>\n<br \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>(Originally posted on : Bitcoin News ) Key Takeaways Bitwise\u2019s XRP fund was the only mover on Oct. 2, shedding $3.28 million while rivals sat flat.
