Ripple Unlocks 1 Billion XRP on November 1, 2025—Expected Net Supply Increase of $500–750M

Ripple unlocks 1 billion XRP on November 1, 2025, valued at $2.49 billion, but expected relock of 700–800 million limits net new supply to approximately $500–750 million.

Ripple will unlock 1 billion XRP from escrow on November 1, 2025, keeping to its monthly schedule. At market price, the batch holds a headline value of $2.49 billion. The system, running since 2017, aims for predictable token supply.​

Actual Supply Impact

Most unlocked XRP is relocked—on average, 700–800 million. Ripple typically uses or sells only 200–300 million each cycle. Net increase in circulating supply is usually $500–750 million, not the full amount. This practice limits market impact from the scheduled release.​

New Rights Mechanism

Ripple CTO confirms the company can sell or transfer rights to future escrowed XRP, guaranteeing institutions early access to upcoming supply. Tokens cannot circulate before release dates, but rights sales expand Ripple’s strategic options. Latest initiatives could use this model for advanced allocation in deals like Evernorth’s Treasury platform.
