The funds added $15.74 million during the week ending April 24. April inflows reached $81.63 million, making it the strongest month for XRP ETFs since December.<\/p>\n<p>XRP ETFs had a strong start after launching in mid-November. The funds quickly crossed the $1 billion mark and avoided net outflow days for nearly two months.<\/p>\n<p>    <!-- .cn-block-related-link --><\/p>\n<p>That trend changed in March as market uncertainty pushed some investors away from risk assets. March became the first negative month for XRP ETFs, with more than $31 million leaving the products.<\/p>\n<p>The return of inflows followed easing geopolitical tension linked to the US-Iran ceasefire. The week ending April 17 recorded the highest weekly net inflow in three months.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>XRP price fails to follow ETF demand<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>XRP has not matched the renewed demand for spot XRP ETFs. The token recently faced rejection near $1.46 after earlier failing to hold a move toward $1.60.<\/p>\n<p>At the time of the report, XRP traded near $1.43. The price showed little change from the previous week, despite fresh ETF inflows and stronger market interest.<\/p>\n<p>Market analyst Crypto Tony described XRP\u2019s recent price action as \u201cboring few months.\u201d The token has traded between $1.20 and $1.60 for more than 60 days.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Exchange outflows raise rally hopes<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>XRP also saw large exchange outflows in the latest market data. Nearly 35 million XRP <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/santimentfeed\/status\/2047737088158622120?s=20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">reportedly<\/a> left exchanges within 24 hours, marking the sixth-largest outflow this year.<\/p>\n<p>Some analysts view large exchange withdrawals as a possible sign of lower sell pressure. Similar spikes in February and March came before 20% to 50% XRP rallies, according to the report.<\/p>\n<p>However, XRP still needs a clear breakout above its recent range to confirm stronger momentum.
