April $2B ETF boom — BTC, ETH and XRP funds print largest inflows of 2026

After a shaky Q1, the spot ETF complex pulled $2.04B in net April inflows. The XRP fund did 38% of it.

After a shaky Q1, the spot ETF complex came roaring back in April. Net April inflows across BTC, ETH and XRP spot funds totaled $2.04B — the largest single month of 2026, and the largest since the post-launch Q1 2024 surge. The XRP fund did 38% of it on its own.

XRP ETF flows are the structural surprise. The fund was the slowest of the three to receive SEC approval; six months later it is producing the largest absolute inflows. The driver is the SBI Visa Crypto Card launch in Japan.
