XRP ETF surpasses 900 other funds launched this year

The first U.S. spot XRP exchange-traded fund closed its debut session with $58 million in day-one trading volume and roughly $245 million in net inflows, securing the top position among more than 900 ETFs launched in 2025.

Nate Geraci, president of the ETF Store, celebrated the performance, writing:

“Canary XRP ETF posts highest day one trading volume out of 900+ ETF launches this year. Also nearly $250 million inflows.”

The strong start puts XRPC ahead of Bitwise’s Solana (SOL) Staking ETF (BSOL), which previously held the 2025 record at $57 million in opening-day volume.

Both products now dominate the year’s ETF leader board, reflecting persistent enthusiasm for crypto-linked thematic funds even as traditional ETF inflows slow.

XRP ETF now ranks at the top, followed by BSOL, while all other debuts trail far behind. Key contenders include:

• BSOL- $57 million

• HBR- $8 million

• LTCC- $1 million

Despite leading all 2025 ETF debuts, XRPC remains well below the historic first-day figures of the Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) ETF waves.

XRPC’s $58 million represents roughly 1.3% of Bitcoin’s launch-day trading activity.

Still, analysts emphasize that Bitcoin’s debut was a once-in-a-decade liquidity event, whereas XRPC is launching into a mature ETF market with lower expectations.

In a surprising turn of events, U.S.-listed spot BTC ETFs saw nearly $870 million in net outflows on Thursday, the second-largest daily bleed on record, led by $318.2 million exiting Grayscale’s Mini Trust and $256.6 million from BlackRock’s IBIT.

The exodus came as Bitcoin slipped below $100,000 for the first time in 188 days, triggering more than $470 million in long liquidations as per CoinGlass.

With its debut now officially the largest ETF launch of 2025, XRPC has emerged as the year’s most significant ETF listing and a rare bright spot during an extended period of risk aversion in digital assets.

The launch signals strong early demand despite a fragile broader market and lingering post-shutdown volatility.

At the time of writing, Bitcoin was trading around $96,204, down 6.41% over the past 24 hours. Ether, the second-largest cryptocurrency by market cap, changed hands near $3,142, down 10.13% on the day.

Solana (SOL) slid 12% to $137.69 over the past 24 hours despite heightened visibility around the Solana Breakpoint conference that is scheduled a few weeks ahead.

Breakpoint – Solana’s annual developer and ecosystem conference, set for Abu Dhabi – brings together the network’s top builders and investors and often features major announcements that shape the future of the SOL token.

XRP traded at $2.28, down 8.6% over 24 hours but still up about 4.7% on the week – one of the only top-five assets in positive territory on a seven-day basis.
