Spot XRP ETFs experienced a $3.28 million net outflow on October 2, mainly from the Bitwise fund, causing combined assets to fall by about $37 million to $1.658 billion. Despite lifetime inflows of $1.791 billion, current assets are $133 million less, indicating investors are underwater on their bets. The XRP token price dropped to $1.44 before recovering slightly, influenced by broader crypto market weakness including Bitcoin's decline. This asset shrinkage despite inflows highlights challenges for XRP ETFs amid shifting market sentiment and price volatility.
