When $RIF pple locks a large amount of $XRP coins in an escrow account, it has various effects on the coin, including:
1. Supply Control
Since these coins will not be available for trading immediately, this reduces the amount of XRP available in the market, which may help reduce selling pressure and lead to price stability or even a rise if demand increases.
2. Market Sentiment
This move can be interpreted positively because it means that Ripple is not pumping a large amount of coins into the market at once, which may reassure investors.
However, some traders may see it negatively if they fear that these coins will be released in the future and cause sudden selling pressure.

monthly, which helps avoid sudden price crashes due to random release of coins.
