Ripple's next scheduled XRP token unlock is set for June 1, 2025, when 1 billion XRP will be released from escrow. This monthly release is part of Ripple's long-standing escrow system, initiated in 2017, designed to manage XRP's supply predictably and transparently.
The unlocked tokens, valued at approximately $2.3 billion based on current market prices, represent about 2% of XRP's total supply. Typically, Ripple re-locks a significant portion—often between 60% and 70%—back into escrow shortly after the release. The remaining tokens are utilized for operational expenses, ecosystem investments, and liquidity provisioning.
