The Volatility Shares Trust XRP ETF, ticker XRPI, recorded net outflows of $833,770 on January 16, 2026, a modest but notable pullback representing about 0.56% of its $149.1 million in assets under management. While the flow represents a relatively small slice of XRPI’s capital base, it adds to signs of investor caution around XRP-linked products after a choppy quarter for the underlying token.
The related asset, XRP-USD, is currently trading at $1.90729, having shed roughly 21.4% over the past three months. That drawdown stands in stark contrast to the exuberance seen earlier in the cycle and may be prompting short-term holders to reassess their exposure via the ETF wrapper. The 1-day technical backdrop reinforces the defensive tone, with a prevailing signal of Sell, suggesting momentum remains skewed to the downside in the immediate term.
Although the latest outflow is far from a wholesale exodus, it underscores how quickly sentiment can swing in the crypto-ETF space, where traders tend to react swiftly to technical signals and headline risk. XRPI’s ability to retain the bulk of its AUM despite recent price weakness hints at a core base of longer-term believers in XRP, even as more tactical investors step to the sidelines.
