Ripple to unlock 1 billion XRP tomorrow

Ripple is preparing to unlock 1 billion XRP from its escrow wallets on February 1, 2026, marking another month in its long-standing schedule of token releases. The escrow system releases up to 1 billion XRP at the start of each month, but only a small portion typically enters circulation, as Ripple often re-locks about 70–80% of the tokens shortly after release. This limits the net increase in supply, with the remaining XRP mainly used for liquidity services, partnerships, or institutional activity. Throughout 2025, these large but predictable unlocks attracted attention, yet their impact on XRP prices was largely muted as the token traded in tandem with the broader cryptocurrency market source: https://finbold.com/ripple-to-unlock-1-billion-xrp-tomorrow/
