Despite the fact thatXRP's price is showing confident growth, a rare statistical paradox has been recorded in the cryptocurrency ETF market. Having secured its position above the $1.44 level, inflows into spot XRP ETFs in the United States suddenly dropped to $0, according toSoSoValue.

While major altcoins remain stalled, market leaders are showing extended buying streaks. Ethereum (ETH) recorded +$43.36 million, marking its ninth consecutive day of inflows, whileBitcoin (BTC) added +$11.84 million, its sixth straight day of growth. XRP, however, stands at $0, while its market price increased by 2.24% since yesterday's open.

Decoding the rare $0 inflow day amid a bullish XRP price breakout

Such calm in funds alongside a rising price is a rare occurrence. Typically, an upward trend is accompanied by liquidity inflows, but in XRP's case, the market is facing a different scenario.

After more than $55.39 million was injected into XRP ETFs last week, institutional players may have paused to assess the sustainability of the price above the $1.40 level. Total assets under management in XRP funds have already exceeded $1.07 billion.

Yesterday's zero inflow suggests that large players are neither taking profits nor rushing to enter at market levels, waiting instead for a breakout above the key resistance at $1.55.

Despite the recent pause in ETF activity, the news backdrop around XRP remains strongly positive. The final recognition of the asset as a "digital commodity" by regulators SEC and CFTC in March 2026 has created a safe environment for capital.

The current price increase without ETF participation may indicate that the rally is being driven by organic demand and XRP usage inRipple's cross-border operations, rather than purely speculative fund-driven capital.
