- U.S. spot XRP ETFs recorded USD 18.83 million in net inflows during October, extending their positive monthly streak to seven months.
- XRP was listed at USD 1.1596 at 18:11:15 Berlin time on November 8, 2026, almost unchanged from the November 7 UTC close of USD 1.16.
- The XRP Ledger processed 550,056 transactions on November 1, while proposed validator amendments showed different levels of support.
XRP ETFs continued to attract capital while the token remained under pressure in October. U.S. spot XRP exchange-traded funds recorded USD 18.83 million in net inflows for the month, their seventh consecutive month of positive subscriptions, according to Biggo, which cited SoSoValue data. Cumulative net inflows reached USD 1.81 billion by the end of October.
The inflow figure contrasts with the underlying market. Biggo reported that XRP declined roughly 16 percent in October, after being rejected near USD 1.50 and briefly moving below USD 1.20. October's ETF inflow total was the second-weakest monthly result since the products began trading, ahead of only January's USD 15.59 million. That suggests continued institutional demand, but at a materially slower pace than during stronger periods.
XRP Price Nears November Lows
Investing.com listed the XRP price at USD 1.1596 at 18:11:15 Berlin time on November 8. The page showed a market capitalization of USD 73.59 billion, 24-hour volume of USD 1.62 billion and a rank of five. The quote was below the platform's reported daily range high of USD 1.1822.
For the required daily comparison, CoinGecko's UTC historical data showed a November 7 close of USD 1.16. Compared with that basis, the Investing.com quote was down 0.03 percent, calculated from unrounded values. This is a UTC daily comparison, not a rolling 24-hour change.
Network Activity Remains a Counterpoint
The XRP Ledger's operating data provides a more stable counterpoint to the weak chart. Biggo reported 550,056 processed transactions and 1,454 newly activated accounts on November 1, with network load at 24 percent of expected ledger capacity. Two amendments were also progressing through validator approval: fixCleanup3_4_0 had 94 percent support, while SingleAssetVault had 60 percent against an 80 percent threshold.
For investors, the central issue is whether ETF inflows can eventually stabilize the XRP price or whether they mainly reflect allocations that would have occurred regardless of spot-market conditions. The record cumulative inflow total is constructive, but the smaller October addition and reduced trading activity point to weaker marginal demand. A sustained recovery would therefore require renewed fund inflows, deeper spot liquidity or a clear improvement in broader crypto-market sentiment. Neither the ETF data nor the network figures alone establishes a timing signal.
