While market observers often watch the price of tokens, the real story right now is happening in the background of the XRP Ledger. Institutional interest in XRP Spot ETFs is climbing, with more than $65 million in new funds entering the space. Related Reading: Rave Token Crashes 95% As Manipulation Allegations Trigger Panic This surge in professional investment coincides with a massive spike in network use. Daily transactions on the ledger have jumped to nearly 3 million. That is three times the volume seen just a year ago. Institutional Growth Drives Record Network Volume Data shows that the XRP Ledger is handling more than just simple transfers. Tokenized commodities have crossed a $1 billion milestone on the network. At the same time, Ripple’s own stablecoin, RLUSD, has reached a $1 billion market cap. This increase in utility is changing how people view the blockchain. Some market figures, like Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson, still raise concerns about how Ripple funds its work by selling tokens from its own supply. However, the network itself is busier than ever. Demand for XRP keeps growing. More access, more ecosystems, more utility. https://t.co/zEqt5C3mmJ — Brad Garlinghouse (@bgarlinghouse) April 17, 2026 Reports indicate that Ripple recently moved 75 million XRP between April 20 and April 21. This amount is worth about $107 million. The movement was not a single transaction. Instead, it was a multi-step process. First, Ripple moved 50 million tokens to an internal wallet. From there, the funds moved through a series of addresses. One specific address split the 75 million XRP into five separate piles. Each pile held 15 million tokens. Ripple just moved 75,000,000 XRP worth $107,000,000 on-chain ???? something’s always cooking when Ripple moves this quietly… $XRP pic.twitter.com/W0WYXZQuRW — Xaif Crypto (@Xaif_Crypto) April 20, 2026 Tracking The Flow Of Millions To Major Exchanges The path of these tokens ended at different destinations. Based on reports, 50 million of the XRP reached Coinbase wallets. The other 25 million stayed in private addresses. This type of movement often makes traders nervous about a price drop. Usually, sending tokens to an exchange means someone is getting ready to sell. Despite the large amount of money moving, the price of XRP did not crash. XRP has actually held its ground quite well. The token is trading between $1.43 and $1.44. In the last seven days, it rose by about 8%. This performance was better than Bitcoin or Ether during the same period. Related Reading: Bitcoin’s Record Miner Sell-Off Casts Shadow Over Ceasefire-Fueled Rebound Analysts suggest that the 75 million XRP transfer might be for liquidity management. Since big investment firms are buying into ETFs, they need a steady supply of tokens to trade. Ripple may be moving these funds to make sure the market has enough depth to handle that demand.
