I noticed something interesting in the money flows this week - XRP returned to the green zone after three consecutive weeks of withdrawals. Investments of $2.91 million came in, meaning investors are starting to return to the asset after a period of hesitation.



Interestingly, XRP surpassed Ethereum in weekly flows. While Ethereum experienced outflows of $27.5 million, XRP was attracting new capital. This reflects a shift in investor strategy and a redistribution of funds.

But Bitcoin is really dominating the market - absorbing $219 million out of the total $230 million recorded. The problem is that total flows have sharply declined from their peak of $2.17 billion in January. The market is clearly cooling down.

The Federal Reserve is the main reason. In the March meeting, they kept interest rates steady but raised their inflation expectations and indicated a reduction in expected rate cuts. This made investors more cautious and risk-averse.

Despite all this, XRP shows remarkable resilience. Analysts say strong retail investor demand supports the price. Currently, XRP is trading at $1.42, but the week was relatively modest. Meanwhile, Ethereum continues to face pressure, and institutional investors remain generally cautious.

The good news is that major regions experienced net positive flows - the United States alone attracted $153 million. This indicates that investors haven't completely exited the market, but have become more selective. With the Federal Reserve's policy continuing as a driving factor, these shifts in sentiment are expected to persist.
