Ripple releases $1.38B XRP from escrow amid strong August gains and record network activity

On September 1, 2026, Ripple released 1 billion XRP tokens valued at $1.38 billion from escrow, continuing its monthly unlocking routine. Despite this large release, XRP's price remained stable and even increased slightly, reflecting market confidence. August saw XRP surge 28.5%, driven by institutional investments, especially via XRP-focused ETFs that attracted over $153 million. Network activity also soared, with a 521% spike in payment volume and record active addresses, signaling growing institutional use and bullish momentum for XRP. Analysts predict a potential rise to $2.30 if XRP holds above $1.50, while regulatory uncertainty remains ahead of upcoming U.S. legislative and Federal Reserve meetings.
