XRP Price Dips 1% As XRP ETFs Log 30 Straight Days Of Inflows While BTC, ETH Funds Bleed

2025/12/15 16:18

The XRP price has dipped about 1% in the last 24 hours to trade at $1.99 as of 3.50 a.m. EST on a 65% increase in trading volume to $1.98 billion.

That drop in the Ripple token price comes after XRP ETFs (exchange-traded funds) recorded 30 straight trading days of net inflows since launch, lifting their cumulative assets to almost $1 billion.

This stands in sharp contrast to Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs, which have seen large outflows, showing a clear split in investor sentiment across the top three cryptos.

If this pattern continues, XRP ETF accumulation could become a key support for the XRP price.​ Analysts say most of the buying has come from professional and advisory channels rather than small investors.​

On‑Chain Signals Point To Accumulation

Even though the XRP price has cooled from its 2025 peak, on-chain activity increased compared to earlier in the year.

Analytics platforms report a rise in active addresses and healthy daily transaction counts, showing that the network is still being used for transfers and cross‑border payments, instead of sitting idle.

This network usage helps support the case for XRP as more than a purely speculative asset.​

Whale tracking services also show continued movement of coins from exchanges to private wallets. A classic sign of accumulation. When holders move tokens off trading venues, it usually means they are less interested in selling quickly and more focused on long‑term storage or staking where available.

This matches the picture from ETF flows, where persistent buying suggests that patient capital is steadily building XRP positions despite the recent price dip.​

XRP Price Consolidates In $2 Range

On the daily chart, XRPUSDT is trading just under the $2.00 mark. Sitting on a horizontal support zone around $1.95–2.00 that has been tested multiple times since late November.

The 50‑day simple moving average (SMA) is sloping down above the price near $2.20. While the 200‑day SMA is higher, close to $2.60. Showing that the short‑term trend is under pressure inside a broader, still‑intact uptrend.

As long as XRP holds this support band, bears may find it hard to push the market into a deeper correction.​ Momentum indicators are neutral with the Relative Strength Index (RSI) on the daily chart sitting just below the mid‑line near 40, which signals that selling has cooled but buyers have not yet regained control.

The MACD is flat around the zero line, pointing to a lack of strong direction and the chance of a larger move once fresh catalysts appear.​

If bulls defend the $1.95–2 area and XRP price recovers above the 50‑day SMA around $2.20, the next upside targets sit near $2.30 and then $2.60. This lines up with the 200‑day SMA and a previous congestion zone.

A clear breakout above that region would open the door for a move towards $3.15, the August swing high shown by the Fibonacci retracement levels. On the downside, a daily close below $1.95 would weaken the structure and could trigger a slide toward $1.85 and then $1.50, where lower Fibonacci levels and past demand zones appear on the chart.​

The Channel Factories We’ve Been Waiting For

The Channel Factories We’ve Been Waiting For

The post The Channel Factories We’ve Been Waiting For appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Visions of future technology are often prescient about the broad strokes while flubbing the details. The tablets in “2001: A Space Odyssey” do indeed look like iPads, but you never see the astronauts paying for subscriptions or wasting hours on Candy Crush.  Channel factories are one vision that arose early in the history of the Lightning Network to address some challenges that Lightning has faced from the beginning. Despite having grown to become Bitcoin’s most successful layer-2 scaling solution, with instant and low-fee payments, Lightning’s scale is limited by its reliance on payment channels. Although Lightning shifts most transactions off-chain, each payment channel still requires an on-chain transaction to open and (usually) another to close. As adoption grows, pressure on the blockchain grows with it. The need for a more scalable approach to managing channels is clear. Channel factories were supposed to meet this need, but where are they? In 2025, subnetworks are emerging that revive the impetus of channel factories with some new details that vastly increase their potential. They are natively interoperable with Lightning and achieve greater scale by allowing a group of participants to open a shared multisig UTXO and create multiple bilateral channels, which reduces the number of on-chain transactions and improves capital efficiency. Achieving greater scale by reducing complexity, Ark and Spark perform the same function as traditional channel factories with new designs and additional capabilities based on shared UTXOs.  Channel Factories 101 Channel factories have been around since the inception of Lightning. A factory is a multiparty contract where multiple users (not just two, as in a Dryja-Poon channel) cooperatively lock funds in a single multisig UTXO. They can open, close and update channels off-chain without updating the blockchain for each operation. Only when participants leave or the factory dissolves is an on-chain transaction…

BlackRock boosts AI and US equity exposure in $185 billion models

BlackRock boosts AI and US equity exposure in $185 billion models

The post BlackRock boosts AI and US equity exposure in $185 billion models appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. BlackRock is steering $185 billion worth of model portfolios deeper into US stocks and artificial intelligence. The decision came this week as the asset manager adjusted its entire model suite, increasing its equity allocation and dumping exposure to international developed markets. The firm now sits 2% overweight on stocks, after money moved between several of its biggest exchange-traded funds. This wasn’t a slow shuffle. Billions flowed across multiple ETFs on Tuesday as BlackRock executed the realignment. The iShares S&P 100 ETF (OEF) alone brought in $3.4 billion, the largest single-day haul in its history. The iShares Core S&P 500 ETF (IVV) collected $2.3 billion, while the iShares US Equity Factor Rotation Active ETF (DYNF) added nearly $2 billion. The rebalancing triggered swift inflows and outflows that realigned investor exposure on the back of performance data and macroeconomic outlooks. BlackRock raises equities on strong US earnings The model updates come as BlackRock backs the rally in American stocks, fueled by strong earnings and optimism around rate cuts. In an investment letter obtained by Bloomberg, the firm said US companies have delivered 11% earnings growth since the third quarter of 2024. Meanwhile, earnings across other developed markets barely touched 2%. That gap helped push the decision to drop international holdings in favor of American ones. Michael Gates, lead portfolio manager for BlackRock’s Target Allocation ETF model portfolio suite, said the US market is the only one showing consistency in sales growth, profit delivery, and revisions in analyst forecasts. “The US equity market continues to stand alone in terms of earnings delivery, sales growth and sustainable trends in analyst estimates and revisions,” Michael wrote. He added that non-US developed markets lagged far behind, especially when it came to sales. This week’s changes reflect that position. The move was made ahead of the Federal…
