The Franklin XRP ETF, ticker XRPZ, attracted $7.35 million in net inflows on January 7, 2026, a notable vote of confidence after a choppy quarter for its underlying token. The latest injection represents roughly 2.47% of the fund’s $297.7 million in assets under management (AUM), signaling that a meaningful slice of investors is adding exposure rather than retreating.
The move comes against a backdrop of weakness in the related asset, XRP-USD, which is currently trading around $2.0921. Over the past three months, XRP has dropped about 25.38%, underperforming many large-cap crypto peers and reflecting persistent risk-off sentiment in parts of the digital-asset market.
Despite that drawdown, shorter-term technicals are more neutral than outright bearish. On a one-day view, XRP’s signal screens as Hold, suggesting that momentum has stabilized for now rather than accelerating to the downside. For ETF investors, this combination of recent price weakness and neutral near-term signals may be creating a perceived entry point, helping explain why fresh capital is flowing into XRPZ even as the token trades well below its recent highs.
The size of the latest flow — nearly 2.5% of AUM in a single day — underscores how tactical the product has become for traders looking to express directional views on XRP without holding the token directly. If inflows of this magnitude persist, XRPZ could amplify buying pressure on the underlying market at a time when sentiment remains fragile and liquidity pockets are uneven.
