XRP (CRYPTO: XRP) has fallen 16% over the past month, but growing institutional inflows, stablecoin adoption and tokenization activity on the XRP Ledger point to the expanding underlying ecosystem.
XRP ETF Inflows Jump 40%
A Q3 2026 XRP report shared by Blockworks highlighted growing institutional demand despite XRP’s recent price weakness.
- Global XRP exchange-traded products attracted $355.3 million in net inflows, up 39.6% quarter-over-quarter, while assets under management climbed 65.2% to $3.32 billion.
- XRPL-native stablecoin supply increased 25.2% to $1.03 billion, driven by a 49.7% surge in Ripple’s RLUSD stablecoin.
- Stablecoin transfer volume jumped 39.5% to $14.09 billion, signaling expanding payment and settlement activity.
- Tokenized real-world assets also gained traction, with distributed RWA value rising 29.2% to $498.7 million and represented assets reaching $4.75 billion.
Institutional adoption accelerated as Aviva Investors launched a tokenized fund share class on XRPL, while Evernorth secured shareholder approval for its XRP treasury initiative, with almost 473 million XRP expected at closing.
