Institutional investment in XRP is driving a significant shift in market dynamics, creating a ‘supply shock’ that is pushing prices higher. As new ETFs enter the market, demand for XRP is rapidly increasing, leading to tighter liquidity on major exchanges. This scarcity of readily available XRP tokens has amplified the impact of institutional buying. Crypto analyst CryptoDaantje50 used an accessible analogy, comparing this situation to concert tickets with limited supply – the more demand there is, the higher the price. Recent data from ETF issuers confirms this phenomenon as they aggressively buy XRP from the market to meet investor demands. The influx of $79 million XRP into the market from just a single day demonstrates the power of this new institutional buying wave.
