What the reporting agrees on

Multiple outlets, including CryptoSlate, BeInCrypto, and Crypto.news, confirm that US-listed XRP ETFs experienced their first weekly outflow in three months, ending a 13-week inflow streak. The outflow amount is consistently reported as $1.84 million across CryptoSlate and Crypto.news. However, BeInCrypto emphasizes the modest nature of the reversal and highlights the sharp drop in on-chain activity as an additional factor contributing to caution around XRP.

US-listed XRP exchange-traded funds (ETFs) have ended a 13-week streak of inflows, with investors withdrawing $1.84 million during the week of October 12-16, according to data from SoSoValue. This marks a significant shift in investor sentiment after the longest active inflow streak for XRP funds.

The reversal comes amidst a broader trend of withdrawals from cryptocurrency ETFs, with nearly $576 million withdrawn from four major cryptocurrency ETF categories. This development is set against a backdrop of a relatively flat overall crypto market, with the total market cap standing at $2.82 trillion.

While Bitcoin and Ethereum have also seen withdrawals, their price movements have been relatively stable. Bitcoin is currently priced at $82,309, up 0.36% in the last 24 hours, while Ethereum is at $2,421.14, up 0.17% in the same period. XRP, on the other hand, has experienced a 7.20% decline over the past week, despite a slight 0.39% increase in the last 24 hours.

The shift in XRP ETF inflows coincides with a sharp drop in on-chain activity, as reported by BeInCrypto, which has added to the caution surrounding the token. Exchange reserves of XRP have reached 11.81 billion, and analysts are monitoring the $1.25 support level for the next potential price move.

The broader market context shows a Fear & Greed index of 59, indicating a state of 'Greed', while the total value locked (TVL) in DeFi, as reported by DeFiLlama, is $104.43 million, marking a 2.7% decrease over the past week. This suggests that while the overall market remains stable, there are underlying currents of caution and potential shifts in investor behavior.
