The Volatility Shares Trust XRP ETF, ticker XRPI, drew fresh capital on January 22, 2026, with a net inflow of $1,135,610. The move nudged total assets under management to $139,984,900, meaning the latest flow represented roughly 0.81% of the fund’s AUM—a modest but notable vote of confidence in a volatile corner of the crypto market.
The related asset, XRP-USD, is currently trading at $1.9284 and has shed about 26.8% over the past three months, underscoring the recent pressure on large-cap altcoins. Short-term sentiment remains cautious, with the 1-day technical signal flashing Sell, suggesting momentum traders are still wary even as ETF investors selectively add exposure.
The divergence between negative price action in XRP and incremental inflows into XRPI hints that some investors may be using the ETF as a tactical vehicle to accumulate on weakness, betting on a medium-term rebound rather than chasing short-term signals. With less than 1% of AUM shifting in the latest session, the flow is far from a wholesale repositioning, but it does signal that conviction has not evaporated amid the drawdown.
