<div class="finbold">
 <p class="paragraph">Ripple, the company behind the XRP Ledger (XRP) development, will unlock 1 billion tokens on June 1, worth $520 million. This is part of Ripple’s monthly sell-offs, which could negatively impact the XRP price in the following weeks.</p>
 <p class="paragraph">Historically, Ripple has been unlocking 1 billion tokens through escrows, finalized on the first day of every month since 2017. Until April, the company has been using ‘Ripple (22)’ and ‘Ripple (23),’ according to <em>XRPScan,</em> to manage the escrows.</p>
 <p class="paragraph">However, these accounts no longer hold active unlocking contracts, and May has already used two different addresses, as Finbold reported. The wallets ‘Ripple (24)‘ and ‘Ripple (25)‘ currently hold the 1 billion XRP monthly unlock escrows until January 2025.</p>

 <p class="paragraph">As developed, ‘Ripple (24)’ sent 200 million XRP to ‘Ripple (1)‘, the treasury account. On May 13, the company dumped 75% of the reserved amount, selling 150 million XRP. Later, on May 24, Ripple got rid of the remaining 50 million XRP, closing its month’s sell-off.</p>

 <p class="paragraph">It is noteworthy how Ripple sales directly impact XRP’s price, considering the supply pressure they create on the spot market. Historically, XRP suffered a local crash most of the time Ripple sold its tokens.</p>
 <p class="paragraph">In 2024, only five of the 12 sell-off days had positive price action: February 5, 11, April 14, May 13, and 20. All the other seven days were of local crashes, evidencing the importance of monitoring the company’s activities.</p>
 <p class="paragraph">Moreover, XRP had a negative monthly performance in three of the first five months of 2024, year-to-date. So far, May has displayed a neutral price action from its opening when Ripple <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="unlock" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/unlock.html">unlock</a>ed 1 <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="billion" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/billion.html">billion</a> XRP on May 1.</p>
