May 2, 2025 – Binance News
Ripple has once again made waves in the crypto market, unlocking 1 billion XRP from its monthly escrow on May 1—with 500 million XRP (worth over $1.1 billion) quickly shifting between internal wallets, as confirmed by blockchain tracker Whale Alert.

While the large movement initially sparked fears of a sell-off, on-chain data shows the majority of these tokens were not meant for external transfers. Ripple relocked 700 million XRP across three separate transactions, temporarily easing concerns about market dumping.
