Ripple set to dump 1 billion XRP this weekend

After unlocking and not relocking 3 billion XRP from the escrow accounts so far in 2026, Ripple Labs, a regulated blockchain payment company, is set to receive another 1 billion tokens on Sunday, November 1. Ripple will gain access to 1 billion over this weekend, continuing with its long-running monthly escrow schedule that has defined XRP supply dynamics since late 2017. Year-to-date (YTD), the company has consistently re-escrowed about 700 million XRP, or roughly 70% of each monthly unlock, into new longer-dated contracts.
