US spot XRP exchange-traded funds recorded their first day of net outflows on Wednesday, snapping a 36-day streak during which the products had avoided any daily redemptions, according to data from SoSoValue. The reversal comes amid renewed pressure across major crypto exchange-traded products as the new year gets underway. The five US-listed XRP ETFs posted combined net outflows of $40.8 million on Wednesday. The selling was concentrated in a single product, with 21Shares’ TOXR recording $47.25 million in net outflows. That decline was partially offset by modest inflows of roughly $2 million each into funds managed by Canary, Bitwise, and Grayscale, resulting in a net negative reading for the day. XRP inflow momentum stalls after strong December The outflow marked a notable shift for XRP ETFs, which had been among the strongest performers in the crypto ETF space through December. By Dec. 30, spot XRP ETFs had notched a 29-day consecutive inflow streak, even as other crypto-linked exchange-traded products experienced sharp monthly redemptions driven by year-end portfolio rebalancing and profit-taking. Before Wednesday’s reversal, XRP ETFs had accumulated approximately $1.25 billion in net inflows since the launch of Canary’s XRPC fund on Nov. 13. The sustained demand had set XRP products apart from bitcoin and ether ETFs, which struggled to maintain consistent inflows over the same period. While Wednesday’s outflow breaks the streak, the data still suggest that XRP ETFs have retained a relatively sticky investor base compared with larger crypto funds, where flows have been more volatile in recent weeks. Bitcoin and Ether ETFs also reverse The weakness in XRP products coincided with broader selling pressure across the crypto ETF market. Spot bitcoin ETFs recorded a combined net outflow of $486 million on Wednesday, extending a reversal that began earlier in the week.

Early-year volatility highlights divergent trends ETF flow data from the opening days of January point to a sharp divergence by asset class. Spot bitcoin ETFs began the year with strong inflows of $471 million on Friday and $697 million on Monday, before reversing to $243 million in outflows on Tuesday and a deeper $486 million drawdown on Wednesday. Spot ether ETFs followed a similar trajectory, with inflows of $174 million on Friday, $168 million on Monday, and $114 million on Tuesday, before turning negative midweek. In contrast, smaller crypto ETFs have shown greater stability. Spot Solana ETFs continued to attract modest but consistent inflows during the first trading days of January, suggesting steadier positioning among investors in that segment. Dogecoin ETFs, meanwhile, recorded no notable net movement on Tuesday and Wednesday after starting the year with inflows of $2.3 million on Friday and $1.6 million on Monday.
