Ripple Unlocks 1 Billion XRP: Will Altcoin Season Sustain the Momentum?
On January 1, 2025, Ripple is set to release 1 billion XRP from its escrow system, adding 1.74% to the circulating supply of 57.2 billion XRP. This significant unlock, worth over $2 billion, will occur in three transactions: 200 million, 300 million, and 500 million XRP. These releases fund Ripple’s operations and provide liquidity for its payment solutions but often add selling pressure to the market. While some of the unlocked tokens may be re-escrowed, the market remains watchful of its impact on XRP's price.
Despite the unlock, optimism is brewing as experts anticipate the return of the "altcoin season." VanEck analysts suggest that November 27 marked the beginning of this cycle, where altcoins outperform Bitcoin. Historically, altcoin seasons align with a decline in Bitcoin dominance, providing lucrative opportunities for traders.
Crypto analysts also draw parallels between 2020 and 2024 market cycles, where November rallies followed by December pullbacks paved the way for altcoin surges. With Bitcoin hovering around $99k and forecasts of $180k in 2025, the stage is set for explosive growth in the altcoin market, including XRP.
As XRP trades above $2, its future hinges on whether demand can match the increased supply. With the synergy of institutional adoption, rising altcoin speculation, and AI integrations, 2025 could redefine the crypto landscape.
Stay tuned as the new year kicks off with potential catalysts for Ripple and the broader market.
