XRP Products Lead $224 Million Weekly Crypto Fund Inflows, Outpacing Bitcoin

Apr 9, 2026

Global crypto investment products attracted $224 million in net inflows last week, with XRP leading at $119.6 million—over half the total and its largest weekly performance since mid-December 2025, bringing year-to-date inflows to $159 million. Switzerland dominated regional flows with $157.5 million (70% of the global total), far outpacing the United States' $27.5 million in what CoinShares Research Analyst James Butterfill characterized as an unusual geographic shift. Bitcoin products saw $107.3 million in inflows after starting April with $145 million in outflows, while Ethereum faced $52.8 million in outflows amid regulatory uncertainty. The surge in XRP interest follows the late-2025 launch of spot XRP ETFs in the United States, providing institutional investors with regulated exposure to the token.
