The token traded between $1.42 and $1.47 during the same period, with daily volume above $2.11 billion.<\/p>\n<p>The wider trend remains mixed. XRP gained 2.29% over seven days and 9.83% over the past month, but it still trades well below its July 2025 all-time high of $3.65. Crypto.news data shows the token is down about 60% from that peak.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>ETF inflows add fresh market context<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>U.S. spot XRP ETFs recorded $25.8 million in daily net inflows on May 11, their strongest day since Jan. 5, according to SoSoValue data cited by crypto.news. Franklin Templeton\u2019s XRPZ led with $13.6 million, followed by Bitwise\u2019s XRP ETF with $7.6 million and Grayscale\u2019s GXRP with $4.6 million.<\/p>\n<p>Interestingly, inflows <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/sosovalue.com\/assets\/etf\/us-xrp-spot\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">continued<\/a> on May 12, with $5.31 million in daily net inflows. It also shows cumulative net inflows at $1.36 billion and total net assets at $1.16 billion.
