According to ChainCatcher, the U.S. spot XRP ETF has attracted over $1 billion in inflows since its launch in November, with no single day of net outflows. This performance contrasts sharply with the $2.9 billion net outflow from Bitcoin ETFs during the same period. Sygnum Bank's Chief Investment Officer, Dori, noted that this trend indicates a growing institutional adoption, with ETFs enhancing market access and improving market structure. Ripple CEO Garlinghouse highlighted that the XRP spot ETF has experienced net inflows for 30 consecutive days. Despite the influx of funds, XRP's price remains 47% below its all-time high of $3.65, and its market capitalization has fallen to fifth place, overtaken by BNB. Several institutions are entering the XRP ETF market, with Canary Capital's first product attracting $250 million upon launch. Other major players like Vanguard, Grayscale, and Bitwise have also introduced related products, reflecting Wall Street's increasing demand for XRP.

According to BlockBeats, data from Coinglass reveals that current funding rates across major centralized and decentralized exchanges indicate a continued bearish sentiment in the market. The funding rates for mainstream cryptocurrencies are detailed in the accompanying chart. Funding rates are fees set by cryptocurrency trading platforms to maintain balance between contract prices and the prices of underlying assets, typically applied to perpetual contracts. This mechanism facilitates the exchange of funds between long and short traders, without the trading platform charging this fee. It serves to adjust the cost or yield of holding contracts, ensuring contract prices remain close to the asset prices. A funding rate of 0.01% signifies a baseline rate. When the funding rate exceeds 0.01%, it suggests a generally bullish market sentiment. Conversely, a funding rate below 0.005% indicates a bearish outlook.

Lighter founder and CEO Vladimir Novakovski participated in a podcast interview with The Chopping Block today. When answering questions about tokens, Vladimir stated, “From an expectation management perspective, this is a marathon, not a sprint. The team and the early community don't actually expect a ‘takeoff on day one’ scenario. A more realistic expectation is to start from a relatively healthy position, and then, with continued product development, the overall trend will gradually improve. Our goal is clearly not to maximize value on day one, but to ensure it's in a healthy state within the current market environment, and then iterate continuously from there. We've seen too many tokens launch with a sharp rise, and then decline all the way down.”
