Ripple locks 300 million XRP — worth roughly $418M — into escrow.

Ripple has placed 300 million XRP, valued at approximately $417.8 million at current prices, into escrow. The move is consistent with Ripple's long-standing practice of locking large tranches of XRP in time-released escrow contracts, a mechanism designed to provide the market with supply predictability.

Escrow lock-ups of this size are routine for Ripple and do not directly reduce circulating supply — the tokens are released on a scheduled basis and any unused portion is typically re-escrowed. Observers track these transactions as a transparency signal rather than a market catalyst.
