From a freeze to steady buying
XRP ETFs had a strong August, with more than $150 million of net inflows, their best month of 2026. That included $110.49 million in the week to 28 August alone. Early September was quieter, and on 21 September the funds recorded no flows at all while Bitcoin ETFs were taking in nearly $1 billion that day.
Then the buying returned. Over the next four sessions, $75.6 million flowed in. That lines up with the wider shift into altcoins this week, when Solana ETFs had a record week and the altcoin season index rose (see our Solana ETF report).
How much XRP the ETFs hold
The seven funds hold about 1.2 billion XRP between them. This week's inflows added about 34 million XRP. Every dollar that comes into an ETF has to be matched by real XRP bought and held by a custodian, so these coins are effectively taken out of circulation for as long as investors keep their shares.
For scale, XRP's circulating supply is in the tens of billions, so the ETFs still hold only a small slice. But steady buying from funds can add up, especially when exchanges are handling other large flows. This week that included the Bitget hacker moving about $83 million in stolen XRP (see why Ripple cannot freeze it).
XRP price
XRP traded around $1.57 on 27 September, up about 2% in 24 hours. Some analysts have pointed to $1.70 as a month-end target, though targets like these are guesses, not promises. On the network side, the XRP Ledger's Batch upgrade has been pushed back to 9 October (read why it was delayed). Live price: ₹143.01 ($1.49) on our XRP price in INR page.
What it means for Indian investors
US XRP ETFs are not sold in India. Indians can buy them only through an overseas brokerage account funded under the Liberalised Remittance Scheme, where they are taxed as foreign shares. Buying XRP directly on an FIU-registered Indian exchange is simpler, with 30% tax on gains and 1% TDS on each sale. For long-term views, see can XRP reach 1,000 rupees.
