XRP ETFs Revive as Ripple's RWA Sector Booms with $5 Billion Tokenized Assets

Ripple's XRP has been experiencing real network usage since the start of 2026, keeping its price above $1. Although it has struggled to reach its all-time high of $3.84, which was set nine years ago, the altcoin's price remains stable.

The capital inflows into the ecosystem have come from various fronts, with XRP ETFs showing signs of revival in August. Since July 29th, these products have seen four consecutive days of positive inflows, pulling in over $15 million, with the largest single-day inflow being $7.69 million.

However, when looking at the broader picture, the XRP ETF inflows were below par. Over the past three months, these ETFs pulled in $219 million, a fraction of what flowed into the XRP Ledger. The RWA sector played a quiet role as it gained momentum slowly, with the represented tokenized asset value on the ledger exceeding $4.959 billion, a growth of 2%.

The number of RWA holders climbed over 25% in the past month, reaching 199, and stablecoin holders on the network rose to 60.24K. This indicates that despite ETF inflows being back, the real institutional signal was the RWA activity building on the ledger itself. As a result, this creates a bigger demand for the native token since the economic impact is not one-to-one.
