This structure is often used in traditional finance to raise capital via IPO and later merge with a target company.<\/p>\n<p>In this case, the shell would become a treasury vehicle that steadily purchases XRP, effectively creating a permanent buyer for the token.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Ripple would reportedly contribute part of its 4.7 billion liquid XRP holdings (valued near $11 billion), giving the project immediate liquidity and signaling corporate confidence in its ecosystem.<\/p>\n<h2>Ripple's relationship with XRP<\/h2>\n<p>Ripple and XRP are related but distinct entities that are often confused with each other.<\/p>\n<p>Ripple is a private crypto company that develops global payment solutions that rely on digital assets like XRP and Ripple USD (RLUSD) for their processes.<\/p>\n<p>Notably, the firm is also the largest holder of the XRP token, controlling roughly 42% of the 100 billion total supply.<\/p>\n<p>Ripple has 35 billion XRP tokens locked in escrow and releases one billion monthly under an on-ledger schedule. About 60% of those monthly releases are typically re-locked, creating a self-imposed cap that stabilizes issuance and maintains market trust.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_503428\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-503428\" style=\"width: 877px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-503428\" src=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Screenshot-2025-10-17-151327.jpg\" alt=\"Ripple's XRP Holdings\" width=\"877\" height=\"331\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Screenshot-2025-10-17-151327.jpg 877w, https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Screenshot-2025-10-17-151327-300x113.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Screenshot-2025-10-17-151327-768x290.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 877px) 100vw, 877px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-503428\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Ripple's XRP Holdings (Source: Ripple)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Meanwhile, a DAT would flip the script from supply restraint to demand creation.<\/p>\n<p>Instead of moderating outflows, Ripple would indirectly engineer inflows as institutional capital flows into an entity mandated to buy XRP. This would be a structural shift from emission control to market absorption.<\/p>\n<h2>XRP treasury companies<\/h2>\n<p>The idea of an XRP-focused firm is not entirely new. The crypto industry has seen different iterations of this for several digital assets, including <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/coins\/bitcoin\/\">Bitcoin<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Over the past year, a handful of firms have already <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/xrp-corporate-treasury-investments-near-1-billion-as-companies-embrace-blockchain-potential\/\">experimented with XRP-centric reserves to different levels of success.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Notably, Singapore's Trident Digital announced a $500 million fund in June, while Webus International <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/webus-international-reveals-300m-xrp-treasury-bid-to-power-borderless-payments\/\">pursued $300 million in May<\/a> to back its chauffeur payments network.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, VivoPower International and Wellgistics followed with smaller allocations of $121 million and $50 million, respectively.<\/p>\n<p>However, their stock performance has been sobering.<\/p>\n<p>Since their announcements, these companies have seen their shares fall by as much as 70%, highlighting how digital-asset treasuries can magnify hype and risk.<\/p>\n<p>Still, some, like Webus and Wellgistics, are <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/how-xrp-treasury-company-aims-to-unlock-100b-through-loyalty-points\/\">doubling down on the XRP ecosystem to grow<\/a>. For them, XRP treasuries aren't short-term trades but infrastructure bets, but capital pools to support cross-border liquidity and enterprise payment rails.<\/p>\n<p>Nonetheless, Ripple's proposed DAT would eclipse them all.<\/p>\n<p>At current prices around $2.30, a $1 billion reserve equals about 435 million XRP, or roughly 0.75% of the 60 billion in circulation, according to CoinGecko data.<\/p>\n<h2>How will this affect the XRP price?<\/h2>\n<p>An XRP treasury's steady bid will help to fortify price floors and institutional confidence in the digital asset.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/coinmarketcap.com\/currencies\/xrp\/\">Data<\/a> from CoinMarketCap shows that XRP's liquidity on major exchanges is considerably thinner than that of rival tokens like Solana and Ethereum.<\/p>\n<p>Across the ten largest spot venues, including <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/companies\/binance\/\">Binance<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/companies\/coinbase\/\">Coinbase<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/companies\/bybit\/\">Bybit<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/companies\/upbit\/\">Upbit<\/a>, the combined \u00b12 percent order-book depth amounts to just around $51 million.<\/p>\n<table>\n<caption>XRP Liquidity Across Exchanges<\/caption>\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>#<\/th>\n<th>Exchange<\/th>\n<th>Pair<\/th>\n<th>Price<\/th>\n<th>+2% Depth<\/th>\n<th>-2% Depth<\/th>\n<th>Volume (24h)<\/th>\n<th>Volume %<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>1<\/td>\n<td>Binance<\/td>\n<td>XRP\/USDT<\/td>\n<td>$2.30<\/td>\n<td>$3,957,163<\/td>\n<td>$3,969,636<\/td>\n<td>$679,136,111<\/td>\n<td>7.08%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>2<\/td>\n<td>Binance<\/td>\n<td>XRP\/FDUSD<\/td>\n<td>$2.30<\/td>\n<td>$594,666<\/td>\n<td>$517,236<\/td>\n<td>$554,874,202<\/td>\n<td>5.79%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>3<\/td>\n<td>Bybit<\/td>\n<td>XRP\/USDT<\/td>\n<td>$2.28<\/td>\n<td>$2,295,007<\/td>\n<td>$2,014,288<\/td>\n<td>$288,253,951<\/td>\n<td>3.01%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>4<\/td>\n<td>Coinbase Exchange<\/td>\n<td>XRP\/USD<\/td>\n<td>$2.29<\/td>\n<td>$4,579,660<\/td>\n<td>$6,514,803<\/td>\n<td>$421,220,761<\/td>\n<td>4.39%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>5<\/td>\n<td>Upbit<\/td>\n<td>XRP\/KRW<\/td>\n<td>$2.47<\/td>\n<td>$804,537<\/td>\n<td>$2,453,089<\/td>\n<td>$590,732,434<\/td>\n<td>6.16%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>6<\/td>\n<td>OKX<\/td>\n<td>XRP\/USDT<\/td>\n<td>$2.29<\/td>\n<td>$2,390,812<\/td>\n<td>$3,910,152<\/td>\n<td>$204,199,588<\/td>\n<td>2.13%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>7<\/td>\n<td>Bitget<\/td>\n<td>XRP\/USDT<\/td>\n<td>$2.28<\/td>\n<td>$3,224,442<\/td>\n<td>$2,882,279<\/td>\n<td>$385,454,769<\/td>\n<td>4.02%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>8<\/td>\n<td>Gate<\/td>\n<td>XRP\/USDT<\/td>\n<td>$2.29<\/td>\n<td>$2,030,090<\/td>\n<td>$2,266,713<\/td>\n<td>$419,539,376<\/td>\n<td>4.37%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>9<\/td>\n<td>MEXC<\/td>\n<td>XRP\/USDT<\/td>\n<td>$2.27<\/td>\n<td>$2,284,200<\/td>\n<td>$1,853,676<\/td>\n<td>$373,956,948<\/td>\n<td>3.90%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>10<\/td>\n<td>KuCoin<\/td>\n<td>XRP\/USDT<\/td>\n<td>$2.29<\/td>\n<td>$1,827,623<\/td>\n<td>$1,870,143<\/td>\n<td>$248,482,869<\/td>\n<td>2.59%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>At that level, Ripple's proposed $1 billion digital-asset treasury, if deployed evenly over 90 days at roughly $11 million in daily purchases, would represent more than 20% of all visible near-price liquidity on any given day.<\/p>\n<p>Moreover, it would also equate to roughly twenty times the total depth within that immediate trading band.
