From Scarcity to Surge: $XRP ’s Supply Shock Explained 🚀
🔒 ~ 40% of XRP’s total supply is locked in escrow — Ripple can’t freely dump it.
💰 Ripple retains control over ~37.3B XRP in escrow + ~3.5B in liquid holdings.
📉 In recent months, XRP’s exchange reserves dropped sharply — exchanges went from ~2.85B to ~2.24B $XRP , a ~600M+ token outflow.
📊 CryptoQuant flagged a ~21% decline in exchange reserves (from ~$2.9B to ~$2.3B) — less selling pressure.
🔓 But: Ripple’s escrow unlocks are in play — $3.28B), which spooked some bulls.
⚡ What this implies:
Less supply on exchanges + controlled releases = potential fuel for a breakout (if demand matches). But unlock events are wildcards.
💡 My Trade Setup for $XRP :
• Accumulate slowly (DCA)
• Track exchange reserve charts
• Watch unlock dates + volume spikes
• Use tight risk control / stop-loss
👇 Do you think this scarcity play sets up XRP for a major breakout — or are the unlocks a ticking time bomb?
