CoinShares' report for the week ending May 1, 2026, recorded a dramatic cooling of interest in XRP funds. However, behind the dry numbers lies an important signal: even with a critical decline in volumes, Western markets continue to keep the asset in the green zone.

Despite the status of a monthly anti-record, XRP demonstrated greater resilience than Ethereum , which faced net outflows of $81.6 million. At a time when the number of assets with positive dynamics dropped from nine to four, XRP remained among the few that retained institutional loyalty.
