Supply release: when does the rest arrive?
63% circulating37% of the maximum XRP supply has not been released yet.
The tokens that are not circulating are held by the project — typically team, investor, treasury and ecosystem allocations that unlock gradually on a vesting schedule. We do not publish per-coin unlock dates: the schedules are set by each project and revised often, and a stale unlock date is more misleading than none at all. Check the project's own tokenomics documentation before assuming when that supply arrives.
If every XRP that can ever exist were circulating at today's price, the market capitalisation would be about 1.6× what it is now.

About XRP
XRP is the native asset of the XRP Ledger, a blockchain designed for fast, low-cost payments and settlement, created by the founders of Ripple in 2012. Transactions settle in seconds without mining, and the asset is aimed largely at cross-border payment use.
Created by David Schwartz, Jed McCaleb and Arthur Britto (2012).
XRP in context
XRP trades 65% below its all-time high of A$5.6, set in July 2025. Over the past 90 days it has gained 7.1% in AUD terms, trailing Bitcoin's +8.5% by 1.4 percentage points — one of the moves behind today's altcoin season index reading. Daily turnover runs at about 1.6% of its market value — comparatively thin trading, which can amplify moves in both directions.
