XRP Surges 2.19% as Spot ETF Inflows Hit $38M, Ripple Partnership Boosts Cross-Border Payments

XRPUSDT experienced a 2.19% price increase over the past 24 hours, currently trading at $2.1128 according to Binance data. This upward movement follows notable net inflows into XRP spot ETFs totaling $38.07 million, primarily from Bitwise and Franklin, and the asset under management for XRP ETFs reaching $1.47 billion. Ripple's ongoing supply management, with 1 billion XRP unlocked from escrow and 700-800 million re-locked, is also supporting market stability. Positive sentiment was driven by news of a proposed "Clarity Act" potentially reclassifying XRP, record-breaking payment volume for 2026, and Ripple’s new partnership with i-payout to improve cross-border payments. Despite the cautious tone in broader market analysis and recent volatility, substantial trading volumes—24-hour volume ranging from $2.775 billion to $2.96 billion—reflect strong investor engagement, with XRP maintaining a market capitalization of approximately $127 billion and a circulating supply of 60.70 billion tokens.
