three separate releases, placing fresh supply back under market scrutiny. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The transaction sequence included 500 million XRP valued at $532.86 million, 300 million XRP worth $319.65 million, and another 200 million XRP valued at $213.11 million.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, token unlocks have not always translated into immediate selling pressure because Ripple historically redistributed portions through escrow management.\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Market participants instead shifted their attention toward whether exchanges would receive a meaningful share of the unlocked tokens.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As a result, traders closely monitored supporting on-chain metrics for confirmation.\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Any sustained rise in exchange activity would likely strengthen distribution concerns, whereas limited follow-through could preserve XRP&#8217;s current market structure.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_621523\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-621523\" style=\"width: 505px\" class=\"wp-caption
