XRP Eyes $1.95 Rally as ETF Inflows Continue for Fifth Consecutive Day
Market experts point to a possible surge toward $1.95 for XRP following a breakout from a symmetrical triangle pattern, supported by steady institutional inflows.
The price of XRP (XRP) has climbed 5.5% in the past 24 hours and is up 3% over a seven-day period, hovering near $1.40 on Wednesday. Market observers suggest that various technical and market-driven factors position XRP favorably for additional upward movement.
Key takeaways:
- Continued inflows from United States-based ETFs support XRP's potential climb to $1.95.
- Chart patterns indicate XRP may be breaking out with an upside target of $1.95.
Institutional appetite for XRP ETFs resurges
Data from CoinShares reveals that institutional interest in XRP investment vehicles has been gaining momentum.
Exchange-traded products (ETPs) focused on XRP saw inflows reaching $106.8 million throughout February and an additional $1.9 million for the week that concluded on Feb. 27. Year-to-date in 2026, these investment vehicles have accumulated $153 million in net inflows, pushing the total assets under management (AUM) to a level of $2.4 billion.
At the same time, spot XRP exchange-traded funds (ETFs) have maintained their inflow trajectory, registering $7.53 million on Tuesday, which represents the fifth straight day of positive net inflows. This uninterrupted streak has elevated cumulative inflows to approximately $1.25 billion while pushing AUM to the $1 billion threshold, based on data provided by SoSoValue.
The data points to growing institutional interest in XRP-related products, even as the asset's price has fallen 25% during 2026.
"Spot XRP ETFs recorded $9.55M in net inflows during the Feb. 23–27 trading week," crypto analyst Xaif Crypto said in a Monday post on X, adding: "This is a sign that institutional appetite for XRP isn't slowing down."
Previous reporting by Cointelegraph noted that whale distribution patterns have shown signs of easing while larger-holder balances increase, which enhances the likelihood of XRP experiencing a price rebound.
Symmetrical triangle pattern points to $1.95 target for XRP
Information from TradingView indicates that XRP is working to break free from a symmetrical triangle formation on the daily chart, as illustrated in the accompanying technical analysis below.
For bullish momentum to be sustained, the XRP/USD trading pair needs to achieve a close above the triangle's upper trendline at $1.40, which aligns with the 200-week exponential moving average (EMA).
The XRP price is "pushing above the 200-week EMA," said analyst Egrag Crypto in a Wednesday post on X, adding: "If we get a weekly close above the 200 EMA and $1.55, then short-term strength increases and momentum shifts."
The pattern's measured objective, determined by taking the triangle's height and adding it to the breakout level, points to $1.95, representing a potential gain of 38% from current price levels.
Technical analyst and trader ChartNerd said that $1.43 "remains the imminent resistance to break for a push up to $1.50."
Prior Cointelegraph coverage highlighted that securing a daily candlestick close above the 20-day EMA at $1.42 would validate a structural break and could potentially trigger a rally toward the 50-day SMA positioned at $1.63.
