What the asset actually is

XRP is the native asset of the XRP Ledger, a payment network that settles in seconds and was designed from the start for moving value between currencies rather than for running programs. There is no mining and no staking: validators run the consensus protocol without being paid in newly issued tokens, because there are none.

The entire supply of one hundred billion units was created at launch. That single fact separates XRP from most of the assets in this domain: there is no issuance schedule to model, only a distribution schedule. Supply falls very slightly over time because each transaction destroys a tiny fee rather than paying it to anyone.

The asset is closely associated with one company, which holds a large portion of the supply and develops payment products around the ledger. That association is why regulatory questions about the company reprice the asset, and why the market treats corporate announcements as asset news in a way that has no equivalent for bitcoin.

No mining, no staking, no issuance. The supply question here is who holds it and when it unlocks.

What it is used for

The intended use is cross-border settlement: converting one currency into XRP, moving it across the ledger in seconds, and converting it out at the other end - a bridge asset that removes the need to pre-fund accounts in every destination country. For a payments firm, the capital freed by not pre-funding is the entire commercial argument.

Alongside that sits ordinary exchange trading, which accounts for most volume by value, and a modest set of on-ledger applications: a built-in decentralised exchange, issued tokens and payment channels.

The honest caveat is that measuring genuine settlement usage from the outside is hard. On-ledger transaction counts include exchange internal transfers and market-making, so a rise in activity does not automatically mean a rise in payment corridor volume.

How a cross-border payment uses the asset
  1. 1Sender pays local currency

  2. 2On-ramp to XRP

    Bought on a local exchange venue

    Needs a liquid local pair to work

  3. 3Ledger transfer

    Settles in seconds, fee destroyed

  4. 4Off-ramp to destination currency

    Sold on a venue in the receiving market

  5. 5Recipient paid

    No pre-funded account required at either end

How supply reaches the market

Because nothing is mined, the only way new units reach circulation is release from holdings. In 2017 the associated company locked fifty-five billion XRP into a series of escrow contracts, each releasing up to one billion per month. What is not used in a month is re-escrowed at the back of the queue, which stretches the schedule out over many years.

That mechanism is public and verifiable on the ledger, which makes it one of the more transparent supply schedules in crypto - and one of the most contested, because critics read regular releases as persistent supply pressure while the company describes most released tokens as returning to escrow unused.

The burn is real but immaterial. Every transaction destroys a fraction of a unit as an anti-spam measure. Over the ledger's lifetime this has removed a tiny share of the original supply; it is a design feature, not a supply story.

  • 100 billion units created at genesis; none created since.
  • Escrow releases up to 1 billion per month; unused amounts are re-escrowed.
  • Every transaction destroys a small base fee, permanently reducing supply.
  • Escrow contracts and balances are verifiable on the ledger itself.

Behind the subscription

The rest of this entry is the part that changes a decision: what moves the price, which contract sets it, who ships it and where that can be cut off.

What moves the price

Six drivers, led by the one no other major asset has: a legal docket that has repriced this token by double digits in a single afternoon.

Where it trades and what settles a contract

Which venues carry real depth, why the US listing map has changed twice, and what a dated contract can reference.

Where the supply sits

Escrow, company balance sheet, exchanges, everyone else - and why this distribution makes disclosure days into price events.

Common questions

What did the US court actually decide about XRP?

In 2023 the court held that sales of the token on public exchanges did not amount to securities offerings, while direct institutional sales did. A final judgment followed in 2024, and the appeals were dropped in 2025, leaving that split ruling in place. It removed the existential case against the token without settling every question around the company.

Does the monthly escrow release push the price down?

Not mechanically. Up to one billion units unlock each month, but a large part is returned to escrow unused. The schedule is public and verifiable on the ledger, so treat it as a known calendar item rather than a hidden supply shock - and check the ledger rather than the headline.

Is XRP mined or staked?

Neither. The full supply was created at genesis, validators are not paid in new tokens, and there is no staking yield. The only supply change is the tiny fee destroyed by each transaction, which shrinks supply almost imperceptibly.

Why does one company matter so much for this asset?

Because it holds a large share of supply, runs the escrow schedule, and builds the payment products the asset is meant to serve. That concentration makes corporate disclosures and legal outcomes into asset-level price events, which is not the case for bitcoin or ether.

How volatile is XRP?

Over the last 30 days, XRP has an annualised volatility of 0.5 %. The median daily move across the last 90 days is 1.4 %. Both describe what the price has done, not what it will do.

What is the biggest drawdown XRP has had?

Across the daily closes on file, the deepest peak-to-trough fall is 72 %, from 2025-07-22 to 2026-08-16. The highest close in that window is $3.55 on 2025-07-22.
