💭 IF THERE ARE STRONG $XRP ETF INFLOWS, WHY DOESN'T THE PRICE GO UP?
Matt Hougan of Bitwise explains how his company purchases its cryptocurrencies.
The purchases are done via an "OTC" trade. This is to prevent huge swings in the price and to essentially get them a "better deal" on such a large purchase.
Once Bitwise selects its market maker, it will go into the market and buy the XRP off the exchange. So, they're the ones that are in the market buying the XRP. And then, they take that XRP and they send it to Bitwise's custodian. $XRP

🚀 XRP's Bullish Momentum: A Shift Towards Institutional Adoption and Regulatory Clarity
📈 As XRP enters 2026, it is experiencing increasing breakout pressure above $10 😳😳driven by legal clarity, institutional capital influx, and enhanced liquidity from spot ETFs. This shift marks a transition from short-term speculation to a more structured financial instrument.
⚖️ The pivotal moment for XRP's bullish trend was the regulatory resolution in the United States. The conclusion of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) case against Ripple Labs in August established that secondary-market XRP transactions are not classified as securities. This ruling removed significant barriers to U.S. market participation, restoring exchange liquidity and paving the way for compliant financial products.
📊 Further regulatory shifts favored XRP with the easing of restrictions for launching spot crypto exchange-traded funds (ETFs). The appointment of SEC Chair Paul Atkins and a more crypto-friendly administration facilitated the approval of several spot XRP ETFs. Notably, Canary Capital’s XRPC ETF led the way, followed by offerings from major institutions like Grayscale and Franklin Templeton. This surge in institutional participation positioned XRP as a regulated digital commodity and opened direct channels for traditional capital.
📈 Beyond capital markets, XRP's adoption in enterprise usage has strengthened its utility-led narrative. Regulatory clarity has allowed corporate treasury teams to hold and use XRP without securities risk. Companies like Evernorth and Trident Digital Tech have publicly disclosed their XRP treasury strategies, linking allocations to cross-border payments and working capital efficiency.
