 <p class="paragraph">On the first day of every month, Ripple <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="unlock" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/unlock.html">unlock</a>s 1 <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="billion" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/billion.html">billion</a> XRP tokens from an escrow system using the XRP Ledger. On March 1 (Friday), the company will <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="unlock" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/unlock.html">unlock</a> $600 million worth of tokens in three transactions of 200 million, 300 million, and 500 million XRP.</p>
 <p class="paragraph">Interestingly, March 2024’s <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="unlock" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/unlock.html">unlock</a> accounts for 1.83% of the current 54.59 <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="billion" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/billion.html">billion</a> circulating supply.

 <p class="paragraph">Three escrows will reach finality in the last minutes of February 29, held by two known crypto wallet addresses Ripple owns. In particular, ‘Ripple (22)’ will unlock 500 million XRP, previously locked in January 2020.</p>

 <p class="paragraph">Notably, despite keeping only 200 million XRP, the company spent 260 million tokens ($156 million) from its treasury account, ‘Ripple 1,’ in February. The sell-offs occurred in three batches, all sent to the same address, ‘rP4X2…Kxv3’.</p>
