cryptocurrency.com.tr reports that cumulative net inflows into XRP ETFs have reached a record high of $1.566 billion. Despite this institutional interest, the price of XRP has not surged. EX DeFi is offering XRP holders a cloud mining alternative as a response to market volatility.
How the market reacted
Whalio's own Binance spot order flow for XRP, measured when this story was written up on 27 August 2026. Not the outlet's figures.
Whalio spot data for XRP shows a price of $1.42 with a 24-hour buy ratio of 51.9%, indicating a slight majority of buying pressure over the full day. However, shorter-term activity shows fading momentum, with the 1-hour and 4-hour buy ratios dropping to 47.8% and 48.4% respectively. The 24-hour volume delta is positive at $8,976,592, but recent hourly deltas are negative, with -$396,770 in the last hour and -$1,384,151 over four hours. This suggests that while net buying occurred over the day, immediate selling pressure is currently outweighing buying in the short term.
The latest daily buy ratio of 50.6% sits at the 83rd percentile of the last 322 days, against a median of 48.5% - stronger buying than most days.
Twenty-four hours later
What XRP did over the 24 hours after the story broke. The market moves for its own reasons; this is what happened, not what the story caused.
Was that an ordinary day?
The same Binance spot measurements for XRP, averaged over the days leading up to the story.
Over the preceding week, the average buy ratio was 48.9%, making today's 24-hour ratio of 51.9% an increase of 3.0 percentage points. Trading volume today was 0.51x the weekly average, indicating significantly lower activity than usual. The 8-day volume delta total was -$61,148,055, contrasting with today's positive hourly flows. Price rose 28.7% over eight days, yet there were zero days of net buying in that period, highlighting a divergence between price action and consistent accumulation.
