Gate News message, April 18 — XRP ETFs have crossed $1.5 billion in total inflows, marking a major milestone for the asset as institutional adoption accelerates following the resolution of Ripple’s legal dispute with the SEC in 2025. According to Ripple’s latest report, the growth reflects a shift toward what the company describes as an “institutional era” for XRP.
By early March 2026, XRP ETF assets reached approximately $1.53 billion, with funds collectively holding over 770 million XRP tokens. Notably, there were no net outflow days during the first month of trading, indicating consistent institutional demand. Major asset managers including Bitwise, Grayscale, and Franklin Templeton have launched XRP ETF products, while institutional investors such as Millennium and Citadel have taken positions. Goldman Sachs holds over $150 million in XRP ETF exposure, making it one of the largest known holders. More than 30 institutions have added XRP ETFs to their portfolios.
The legal clarity provided by Ripple’s 2025 settlement with the SEC removed a key barrier to institutional participation. JPMorgan has projected that XRP ETFs could attract up to $8.4 billion in their first year, suggesting the growth trajectory may continue. As the XRP Ledger expands its real-world applications in payments and tokenized assets, the combination of regulatory certainty and institutional infrastructure positioning positions XRP for sustained adoption.
