XRP Escrow To Trigger Selling Pressure?
XRP’s upward rally began in March and witnessed multiple halts in July as the momentum shifted in favor of the world’s largest crypto, Bitcoin. XRP price dropped by more than 8% in the last 30 days while BTC price surged by a major 13%. This breaks the XRP price surge streaks maintained over the several past weeks.
As per the On-chain data, Ripple successfully unblocked a pool of another 1 billion XRP tokens (approx worth $454 million) into circulation in multiple transactions. It should be noted that Ripple holds a fixed routine to add more XRP tokens to the circulating supply which eventually increases the selling pressure among the holders.
XRP price is marginally down by 0.17% in the last 24 hours. This depicts that the Escrow unlock didn’t trigger a sell rally among XRP holders, while sentiments remained calm. XRP is trading at an average price of $0.48, at the press time. It is holding a circulating supply of over 52.2 billion with a market cap of $25.2 billion. Read More XRP News Here…
