Ripple Unlocks 1 Billion XRP from Escrow

As it has always been for a couple of years, Ripple, the US-based cross-border payment firm that oversees the distribution of the digital token XRP, has recently unlocked a total of 1 billion XRP in two separate transactions from escrow.

Whale Alert, the popular large crypto transactions tracking service, shared data of the whopping transaction, which was split into two lumps of 500 million XRP each.

The two transactions were completed at exactly the same time and it is not surprising to see that the dollar value of the two 500 million XRP lumps correspond in dollar value, with both worth approximately $329 million at the time the tokens were unlocked.
