XRP ETFs: A Month of Hopes and Disappointments 🚨

It was in the aftermath of the great political upheaval, when the nation’s leaders changed their coats as frequently as their socks, that the altcoin community, like a troupe of weary actors, began to whisper of a new play-spot ETFs. Among them, the XRP crowd, ever the optimists (or perhaps the delusional), clung to the hope that their beloved token might finally find a place in the sun.

And so, the first act began: Canary Capital’s XRPC, the trailblazer, took its bow a month ago. Soon after, four more ETFs joined the stage, including 21Shares’ TOXR, whose debut was met with the same enthusiasm one might reserve for a well-timed punchline. Here, then, is the tale of the first 30 days.

The First Month: A Tale of Two Markets

On the day XRPC made its debut, the trading volume soared like a drunk seagull-$60 million, a record! Yet, as the old saying goes, “The more things change, the more they stay the same.” The inflows, while impressive, were but a drop in the ocean of investor greed. By the end of the month, the total had swelled to $974.50 million, a figure that would make even a monk blush.

Meanwhile, the XRP price, that fickle lover, danced to its own tune. Having flirted with $2.60 before the ETF launch, it soon retreated to the safety of $1.85, as if the market itself had taken a step back in horror. “A 20% drop in a month,” one might say, “a tragedy for the XRP faithful, a comedy for the short-sellers.”

The Price of Ambition

One might expect that with such a flood of capital, XRP would rise like a phoenix. Yet, here we are, watching it flounder. The ETFs, for all their promise, have done little to lift the token from its slump. It’s as if the market, having once again been promised a miracle, has decided to take a nap instead.
