XRP is trading at $1.11, down roughly 17% from its June opening, having set a new 2026 low on June 5 and shed $8 billion in market cap over three sessions.
Key facts
- Standard Chartered has projected $4 billion to $8 billion in XRP ETF inflows for 2026 if the CLARITY Act passes, a figure far above cumulative inflows to date
- XRP is trading at $1.11, down roughly 17% from its June opening, having set a new 2026 low on June 5 and shed $8 billion in market cap over three sessions
- Cumulative net inflows since the November 2025 launch have approached $1.45 billion, and May's $131.94 million monthly inflow was the strongest since December and ran for 20 consecutive days
- If $1.00 fails, $0.90 becomes the next zone where accumulation would be tested, roughly 19% below current prices and near the cost basis of long-term holders who built positions through the 2024-2025
Summary
01 XRP trades at $1.11 after a 17% June drop, even as May spot ETF inflows hit $131.94 million. 02 Whale-driven exchange flows and shrinking XRP Ledger fees suggest selling pressure is still overpowering that new demand. 03 The key question is whether ETF buying can defend $1.00 or leave $0.90 as the next accumulation test. The correction happens as the asset posted its strongest ETF inflow month of the year, with $131.94 million captured in May, ahead of both Bitcoin and Ethereum products.
