Digital asset investment products remain stuck in a prolonged cooldown, but XRP is once again swimming against the tide.
According to the latest weekly report from CoinShares, crypto investment products recorded $288 million in outflows. This marked the fifth consecutive week of withdrawals. The cumulative outflows have now reached $4 billion. Meanwhile, the figure still trails the $6 billion seen during the same stretch last year.
Trading activity also cooled significantly. After weeks of record exchange-traded product (ETP) volumes, activity dropped sharply to $17 billion. The latest figure marks the lowest level since July 2025, highlighting investor apathy.
The United States accounted for the bulk of the negative flows. It posted $346.7 million in weekly outflows and $941.3 million month-to-date. Year-to-date US outflows now stand at a staggering $2.19 billion, underscoring persistent caution among American investors.
In contrast, investors in other regions viewed recent price weakness as a buying opportunity. Switzerland led with $19.5 million in weekly inflows, followed by Canada with $16.8 million and Germany with $16.2 million. These inflows helped offset part of the US-driven sell pressure.

Bitcoin remained the primary driver of negative sentiment, recording $215.3 million in weekly outflows. Month-to-date outflows for Bitcoin have now reached $579 million, while year-to-date losses stand at $1.29 billion.
Interestingly, short-Bitcoin products saw renewed demand, attracting $5.5 million, the largest inflow among all tracked assets this week. This suggests some investors are positioning for further downside.
Ethereum followed with the second-largest weekly outflows at $36.5 million. Multi-asset products shed $32.5 million, while Tron products saw $18.9 million exit.
Amid broad weakness, XRP recorded $3.5 million in fresh inflows, extending its resilience during a difficult period for digital assets.
Month-to-date, XRP has attracted $105 million in inflows, bringing year-to-date inflows to $151 million. This places it among the stronger-performing altcoin products in 2026. Assets under management tied to XRP products currently stand at $2.57 billion.
While the weekly inflow may appear modest, it highlights a consistent pattern: during broader market pullbacks, XRP continues to attract selective capital rather than heavy liquidation.
Solana and Chainlink also posted minor inflows of $3.3 million and $1.2 million, respectively, but these were not sufficient to offset overall altcoin weakness.

With total assets under management across digital asset products at $130.4 billion, the market remains cautious. Five consecutive weeks of outflows, declining volumes, and growing short exposure point to conservative positioning.
Yet XRP’s steady inflows suggest pockets of conviction remain among investors willing to accumulate during periods of uncertainty. If this divergence continues, XRP’s relative strength during capital flight could become a defining theme in the weeks ahead.
