XRP ETFs Draw $25.8M Single-Day Inflow as BTC and ETH Funds Bleed; Piece Pushes Pepeto Presale

One strong day for XRP funds, set against $1.26 billion leaving Bitcoin's
XRP ETFs gained $25.8M in a session while Bitcoin ETFs lost $1.26B over six sessions.

Why does a single day of $25.8 million matter in a market this large?

Mimi

Because of the contrast. Bitcoin ETFs lost $1.26 billion over six sessions, and Ethereum funds had ten straight losing days. XRP funds drew money in the same window.

Luke

Keep the scale in view, though. It's one session, and the article doesn't say the trend continues. The January 5 comparison only tells us it's the biggest since then.

Mark

And the claim that institutions see a floor forming?

Mimi

That's the article's reading of the rotation. CoinShares is cited for the capital moving into XRP and Solana funds.

Luke

Right, the rotation is attributed. The floor is inference. XRP is still down 26% this year, below its moving averages, with an RSI of 38.

Mark

What about the Pepeto portion?

Mimi

It takes up most of the piece. It claims $10 million raised, 171% APY, and a coming Binance listing.

Luke

All of that comes from the project's own promotion. The 100x to 300x call cites unnamed analysts, and no Binance confirmation appears. The metadata flags it as sponsored, and I'd read it that way.

Mark

So what's the takeaway?

Mimi

The ETF flow data is the story. Watch whether it repeats.

Luke

And treat the price forecasts as ranges from a few firms, not predictions.

  • A single $25.8 million day for XRP funds stands out against $1.26 billion leaving Bitcoin ETFs over six sessions.
  • Ethereum ETFs have stretched a ten-day losing streak, deepening the sense of retreat from the larger crypto products.
  • XRP trades near $1.36, down about 26% this year, with its chart beneath every key moving average and momentum still soft.
  • Analysts cited in the piece hope for a floor near $1.32, yet the promised upside depends on breaking resistance that has not yet given way.
  • The Pepeto presale pitch of 100x returns and 171% APY rests on unnamed analysts and unconfirmed exchange listings, and should be read as paid promotion.

On a late May afternoon in the crypto markets, five U.S.-listed XRP funds drew $25.8 million in a single session, their strongest day since early January, even as money drained from the largest Bitcoin and Ethereum products. It is the kind of divergence that tempts a story about a turning tide, yet the token's own chart still sits in weakness, well below its former peak. The piece that reports this is a sponsored promotion, and its sweeping return promises for a presale token are unverified, so the flow data is the only part a careful reader can lean on.

Five U.S.-listed spot XRP funds took in $25.8 million in one session, the largest daily net inflow for the group since January 5, according to CoinDesk as cited by TechBullion. The timing is striking, because the same stretch brought $1.26 billion in outflows from Bitcoin ETFs over six sessions, and Ethereum ETFs extended their losing streak to ten days. The piece reads this as capital rotating from Bitcoin and Ethereum into XRP and Solana products, though that reading is its own interpretation.

The token itself has not recovered. XRP sits at $1.36, down about 26% since the start of 2026, with its chart below every major moving average and a relative strength index of 38. Support is placed near $1.32 and resistance near $1.41, and even the most optimistic forecasts stop far short of the old record of $3.65.

Most of the article, however, is a pitch for Pepeto, a presale token it says was created by the developer behind the original Pepe coin. It claims over $10 million raised, a Binance listing ahead, 171% staking yield, and an audit, but none of these claims are independently sourced, and the promised 100x to 300x returns come from analysts who are never named.

The useful part is the flow data, which readers can verify directly with CoinDesk and CoinShares. The presale material should be treated as promotion. To watch next: whether the XRP inflows last beyond a single day, and whether the Bitcoin and Ethereum outflows continue.

Five U.S.-listed spot XRP funds took in $25.8 million in a single session, according to CoinDesk as cited by TechBullion. That is the largest one-day net inflow for the group since January 5. The figure arrived while money was leaving the two biggest crypto funds.

Over six sessions, Bitcoin ETFs recorded $1.26 billion in outflows. Ethereum ETFs extended a losing streak to ten days through May 23. The piece also cites CoinShares as confirming that capital is rotating out of Bitcoin and Ethereum products and into XRP and Solana funds.

The token itself is not celebrating. XRP trades at $1.36, down 26% since the start of 2026, and sits below every key moving average on the daily chart. The relative strength index reads 38, which the article describes as weak buying strength. Citing CoinDCX, it puts support near $1.32 and resistance around $1.41. The article reads the ETF rotation as a sign that institutional buyers see a floor forming rather than a breakdown. That is an interpretation, not a reported fact.

Forecasts in the piece are modest. CoinDCX projects XRP staying between $1.32 and $1.45 for May, and reaching $2.35 by year end if sentiment turns. CoinCodex sees a move toward $1.80 if the price breaks above a resistance cluster at $1.48. Even the best case sits well below XRP's record high of $3.65.

Most of the article, though, is not about XRP. It is a promotion for Pepeto, a presale token the piece says was launched by the creator of the original Pepe coin. It claims more than $10 million has been raised, at a price of $0.0000001872, with a Binance listing ahead. It also advertises 171% staking APY, a zero-cost cross-chain bridge, a contract risk scorer, a SolidProof audit, and a former Binance expert on the development team.

The return claims are the weakest part. The article says analysts see 100x to 300x from the current level, but names none of them. It points to a 420 trillion token supply structure that it says reached a $7 billion valuation for the earlier Pepe coin. It describes the Binance listing as approaching, but offers no confirmation from the exchange. None of the Pepeto figures are independently sourced, and the closing language leans on regret and urgency rather than evidence.

The usable reporting is the fund-flow data. XRP ETFs had a strong day while Bitcoin and Ethereum products lost money, and XRP's own chart remains weak. A reader can check the ETF numbers against CoinDesk and CoinShares directly. The Pepeto claims should be treated as paid promotional material. What to watch next is whether the XRP inflows continue beyond one session and whether the Bitcoin and Ethereum outflows keep running.

CoinDCX projects XRP between $1.32 and $1.45 for May and $2.35 by year end if sentiment flips.
