Bitwise CIO: XRP Appeals to Institutions on Track Record and Real-World Use

  • —Hougan called XRP one of crypto's established major assets
  • —He cited cross-currency transfers, liquidity and stablecoins as key draws
  • —XRP ETF net assets rose 80% in Q3 to a record $1.77 billion
  • —By Oct. 2, XRP ETF assets fell to $1.658 billion after a $3.28 million outflow
Why it matters: Institutional demand for XRP is supported by ETFs and clear financial use cases, but inflows have yet to keep fund assets from declining.
