Ripple is set to unlock another 1 billion XRP from escrow on February 1, marking the company’s second scheduled release of 2026 under its long-standing monthly supply program. The unlock follows the framework introduced in 2017, which releases XRP on a fixed timetable to provide transparency and limit unexpected supply shocks. Notably, the February unlock follows Ripple’s release of 1 billion XRP at the start of January. On-chain data shows that Ripple once again re-locked a substantial portion of that supply shortly after it became available, with an estimated 60 to 80% returned to escrow
