# XRP ETFs Extend Winning Streak to 8 Weeks Amid Demand Concerns Ripple's ETFs attract $19M but show signs of slowing inflows as XRP battles key price levels. - **Source:** [CryptoPotato](https://brifing.si/source/bd22636b-ec8d-42a8-8cca-1937c50e0f6c) - **Published:** 2026-09-06 - **Topic:** [Finance](https://brifing.si/c/finance) - **Original article:** - **On Brifing:** https://brifing.si/s/f9455773-a967-4529-9cfe-d606ff0e4db6 ## Record-Breaking Streak Continues XRP ETFs marked their eighth consecutive week of net inflows, adding $19 million. While impressive, this figure paled compared to the previous week's $110 million haul. The streak began after a market revival post-August 19, when the funds had seen seven no-inflow days in 11 trading sessions. Cumulative inflows now stand at an all-time high of $1.68 billion, demonstrating sustained investor interest despite recent volatility. ## Warning Signs Emerge Friday's zero inflows broke a three-week positive run, echoing August's inconsistent demand. Wednesday saw $7.2 million in withdrawals—the first net outflow since August 5. Analysts note this mirrors pre-revival patterns when no-flow days were frequent. The $14.38 million September 1 rebound couldn't sustain momentum, with Thursday's $6.14 million inflow failing to prevent Friday's stagnation. ## August's Peak Performance The last August week delivered 2026's best results with $110 million inflows, surpassing December 2025 records. This surge came as XRP price action showed renewed strength. However, the subsequent slowdown began August 31 with a modest $5.64 million inflow. The volatility highlights the ETFs' sensitivity to underlying asset performance and broader crypto market sentiment. ## XRP's Price Resilience Despite ETF inflows exceeding $110 million recently, XRP dipped below critical $1.40 support last weekend to $1.33. It recovered to $1.45 by Friday before settling at $1.41—maintaining the key level. This resilience follows analysts declaring XRP's bull phase commencement. The asset's ability to hold $1.40 despite outflows suggests strong underlying demand. ## Bullish Price Targets Analysts Ali Martinez and EGRAG CRYPTO project ambitious $60 targets for XRP's bull market peak. Their models suggest the current $1.40-$1.45 range represents early accumulation. Historical patterns indicate such predictions require sustained ETF inflows and mainstream adoption. However, regulatory hurdles and competition from other altcoins present significant obstacles. ## Inflow-Outflow Dynamics The ETFs' August-September rollercoaster saw daily swings from $14.38 million inflows to $7.2 million outflows. This 300% volatility contrasts with December 2025's stability. Market makers attribute this to profit-taking near $1.45 resistance. The zero-flow Friday suggests traders await clearer signals, possibly explaining the 58% weekly inflow drop. ## Market Structure Concerns The recent no-inflow day reactivated debates about organic demand versus speculative trading. August's 7 no-flow days out of 11 preceded the revival, making Friday's repeat noteworthy. Some analysts argue the $1.68 billion AUM still reflects strong fundamentals, while others see early distribution signs. ## Strategic Implications Eight green weeks establish XRP ETFs as crypto's most consistent performers. However, slowing inflows at higher prices may indicate distribution. The $1.40 hold is technically bullish, but requires confirmation. Institutional interest appears intact, yet retail participation shows fatigue. How September flows develop could set Q4's tone. ## Sources covering this story - https://cryptopotato.com/8-in-a-row-ripple-xrp-etfs-record-another-green-week-but-warning-signs-return/ — --- _Summary written by Brifing from the original reporting.
