XRP News Today: XRP ETFs Rally as Bitcoin ETFs Bleed $866M in Outflows

Ripple's XRP price faces a critical juncture as a wave of spot ETFs launch this week, with technical support at $2.15 pivotal to sustaining bullish momentum. The Canary XRPC ETF, which debuted on November 13, set a 2025 record with $58 million in first-day trading volume and $245 million in inflows, outperforming even top Solana products. This surge in demand has reignited speculation that major players like BlackRock may eventually enter the XRP ETF space, particularly after the firm's 2023 filing sparked lingering questions.

XRP's price action remains closely tied to these developments. Traded at $2.27 as of November 14, the asset has dipped 1.4% on the day but holds a 3.5% weekly gain, with a market cap of $136.3 billion. Analysts highlight $2.20 as a critical support level, with a break below this threshold risking a drop to $2.050. The recent ETF inflows have also triggered a sharp withdrawal of XRP from exchanges - 149 million tokens worth $336 million were removed in 24 hours, signaling tighter liquidity.

The ETF momentum contrasts with Bitcoin and Ethereum's struggles. Bitcoin ETFs bled $866 million in outflows on November 14, their second-worst day on record, while Ethereum ETFs saw $177.9 million in redemptions. Meanwhile, Solana and XRP ETFs extended their inflow streaks, with XRP ETFs adding $243 million in their second trading day. This divergence underscores growing institutional appetite for altcoins, particularly those with real-world utility, like XRP's cross-border payment network.

Market liquidity remains a concern, however. Order-book depth for XRP and other major assets remains below early October levels, amplifying the risk of sharp price swings. "The market is thin, and routine flows could trigger exaggerated moves," one analyst noted. This fragility has prompted cautious optimism, with some predicting XRP could rally to $2.60 if it holds above $2.20.

The ETF frenzy is far from over. Four spot XRP ETFs are set to launch this week, with Franklin Templeton leading the charge on November 18. Amplify ETFs also introduced the first XRP-based income product, the Amplify XRP 3% Monthly Premium Income ETF (XRPM), targeting 36% annual option premium income. These launches could unlock billions in institutional capital, with JPMorgan estimating potential first-year inflows of $4 billion to $8 billion.

As the week unfolds, XRP's performance will hinge on its ability to defend key support levels. A sustained rebound above $2.20 could reignite a rally toward $2.60, while a breakdown would test the resilience of the broader altcoin market. With ETF inflows and regulatory clarity fueling adoption, XRP's role as a bridge between traditional finance and blockchain innovation appears firmly entrenched.
