The XRP Ledger supports direct payments in XRP, typically completing in eight seconds or less. At its creation, 100 billion XRP tokens were issued, with 55 billion (55%) placed into escrow by Ripple in 2017. The escrow arrangement allowed monthly releases of up to 1 billion XRP over 55 months, with unused tokens re-escrowed. These supply controls influence XRP’s availability but do not directly determine its market price, which also depends on demand, trust, and liquidity factors.
