Record Inflows Boost U.S. XRP ETFs, Ripple CEO Applauds Performance

Brad Garlinghouse has praised the strong performance of the new XRP ETFs in his latest X post. He joined Ripple as COO in 2015 and became CEO in 2017.

Garlinghouse wrote: “4 weeks, and XRP is now the fastest crypto Spot ETF to reach $1B in AUM (since ETH) in the US”.

U.S. spot XRP ETFs, issued by Canary Capital, Grayscale, Franklin Templeton, and Bitwise, have performed exceptionally well. Launched on November 13-14, these exchange-traded funds have witnessed a record 15-day inflow streak.

The Cumulative Total Net Inflow has reached $935.39 million in such a short span. These funds could soon surpass the $1 billion figure in Net Inflow. Also, the CEO has already hailed them for surpassing $1 billion in assets under management (AUM).

XRP ETFs have become the fastest crypto spot funds to reach $1 billion in AUM since Ethereum. According to SoSoValue, their daily net inflows currently average $38.04 million. Analysts suggest the inflow streak could continue as demand for regulated digital assets grows.

XRP ETFs to Hit Net $1 Billion in Inflows

U.S. spot XRP ETFs have enjoyed a 15-day inflow streak. The latest ETF data from SoSoValue shows that these ETFs have a cumulative total net inflow of $935.39 million. As of Dec. 8, the Total Value Traded was $21.49 million, and the Total Net Assets’ value has reached $923.71.

According to experts, the resolution of the Ripple vs. SEC lawsuit has helped reduce regulatory uncertainty. It made XRP ETFs more attractive to institutional investors.

Ripple was fined $125 million for violating securities laws in some institutional sales. The court still ruled that XRP trades on public exchanges are not securities. That ruling from the US court provided legal clarity and supported the launch of U.S. spot XRP ETFs.

Several reputable financial portals reported sustained inflows into XRP exchange-traded funds. Over-the-counter desks drove these inflows even during broader market sell-offs.

OTC desks have supported continued inflows into XRP ETFs, even amid broader market sell-offs that affected other major ETFs. This OTC activity provides stability, allowing XRP ETFs to draw in top-quality institutional capital.

The ongoing inflow streak highlights growing institutional trust in XRP. Besides, many investors now view this altcoin as one of the most reliable and utility-driven cryptocurrencies.

Ripple CEO Highlights Pent-Up Demand for Regulated Crypto Products

Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse is a highly respected figure in the cryptocurrency industry. He led the company’s defense against the SEC lawsuit, actively coordinating legal strategy and public communications.

Garlinghouse was highly optimistic about the approval of an XRP ETF, often referring to it as inevitable. He celebrated their launch, and now he is celebrating their success.

The CEO published a tweet, hailing the performance of XRP ETFs over the past 15 days. He also stated that more than 40 crypto ETFs were launched in the United States in 2025.

According to him, there is a growing demand for regulated crypto products. Vanguard enabled access through standard retirement and brokerage accounts. Millions of Americans can now invest in crypto without deep technical knowledge.

Garlinghouse also stated that Longevity, stability, and community are often overlooked. Yet, they are key factors for this emerging group of “off-chain” crypto investors.
