The XRP Ledger, launched in 2012 with 100 billion XRP tokens, has strict rules preventing new XRP creation and uses transaction fees to maintain network integrity. Ripple, the company, holds a large portion of XRP in escrow with a controlled release schedule, but this does not dictate how much XRP Ripple sells. A software flaw discovered in 2026 was fixed without evidence of exploitation. In 2023, a U.S. court ruled Ripple's institutional XRP sales were unregistered securities sales, resulting in a $125 million penalty and an injunction. This ruling distinguishes the XRP Ledger's token mechanics from Ripple's business actions, impacting investor understanding and regulatory clarity.
