Institutional demand for XRP-focused exchange-traded funds resumed on October 29, 2026, as Bitwise and Franklin Templeton purchased a combined 6.57 million XRP worth approximately $8.43 million, according to SoSoValue data.
The session ended five consecutive trading days without reported positive inflows into either fund. Franklin Templeton led the activity, attracting $5.57 million—equivalent to about 4.34 million XRP—and accounted for roughly 66% of total inflows. Bitwise added $2.86 million, or about 2.23 million XRP, representing the remaining 34%. No other XRP ETF issuers reported additional net inflows.
Crypto market data account Whale Insider highlighted the session on X, writing: "JUST IN: Bitwise and Franklin ETF clients buy a combined $8.43 million worth of $XRP."
The renewed buying lifted cumulative net inflows across XRP ETFs to approximately $1.81 billion, while combined net assets stood near $1.47 billion. The figures reflect different measures: cumulative inflows track capital entering the products, while net assets measure the value of holdings.
The return to positive flows marked a shift after a five-session lull, with Franklin Templeton's inflow exceeding Bitwise's by about $2.71 million.
