August delivered stronger inflows totaling $159.18 million. July added another $27.29 million to cumulative balances. Positive contributions therefore continued across several consecutive months.

Cumulative balances steadily expanded throughout the year. April had a cumulative inflow of $1.29 billion. As of September, that total rose to $1.73 billion.

Monthly Variations Fail to Reverse Accumulation Pattern

The inflow trend did not advance at identical speeds. Some months recorded stronger allocations than others. However, cumulative totals continued moving higher overall.

March represented the only negative monthly reading. XRP spot ETFs posted a $31.16 million net outflow. Even so, later months returned to positive territory.

February generated $58.09 million in net inflows. January contributed an additional $15.59 million. Those gains helped maintain the broader upward trajectory.

The largest additions arrived during late 2025. November recorded $666.61 million in monthly inflows. December followed with another $499.91 million contribution.

Futures Markets Show Concentrated XRP Trading Activity

CoinGlass exchange data revealed concentrated XRP derivatives participation. Binance dominated several major futures market metrics. Other exchanges maintained meaningful but smaller market shares.

Binance held approximately $693.3 million in XRP open interest. Bybit followed with roughly $585.5 million. MEXC ranked third with around $383 million.

Trading volume figures displayed a similar pattern. Binance processed about $2.28 billion in XRP volume. Bybit and OKX recorded approximately $961.7 million and $849.1 million.

The futures trade count further reflected Binance’s market position. The exchange handled nearly 4.8 million futures trades. XRP changed hands near $0.98 as activity remained elevated.

Higher open interest and volume often indicate active positioning. Traders appeared engaged across several major derivatives venues. Binance and Bybit remained central to XRP futures liquidity throughout the period.
