This month's interesting phenomenon: when the market is so volatile, XRP spot ETF has instead become a safe haven for funds.
The data is clear—according to CryptoCompare statistics, the cumulative net inflow into XRP ETFs in December reached $230 million. In contrast, Bitcoin spot ETFs experienced outflows during the same period. The difference is quite significant.
The underlying logic is not hard to guess: institutions are re-evaluating the value of XRP. First, the progress of Ripple's lawsuit with the SEC is looking good, and the compliance path is becoming clearer. Second, real-world cases of cross-border payments are increasing, no longer just promises on paper. Third, ecosystem development on the XRP chain has not stopped, with various applications being promoted. These three points combined are enough to attract institutional attention.
However, it's important to clarify that there are risks as well. Short-term arbitrage funds may account for a significant proportion, and regulatory policies could change at any time. All these uncertainties need to be considered.
The question is: is this influx of institutional funds a long-term strategic layout or just a short-term risk-hedging move? What do you all think?
