Despite significant inflows into XRP-focused ETFs in May 2026, with over $130 million net inflows and daily peaks above $25 million, XRP's spot price stayed flat around $1.30. This disconnect arises because ETF inflows impact the primary market, but price discovery happens in the secondary market where hedging, arbitrage, derivatives positioning, and supply factors often neutralize immediate price gains. Broader crypto market outflows, especially from Bitcoin and Ether, plus macroeconomic headwinds, also dampen XRP's price movement. Going forward, sustained inflows combined with favorable derivatives conditions and thinning supply could unlock upside, but risks remain if macro de-risking intensifies.
