XRP Price Prediction: 1 Billion XRP Is Disappearing From Circulation — Could Price Explode Next?

Nearly 1 billion XRP has effectively been taken out of circulation, and Ripple is not the one doing the locking.

Seven XRP ETFs now hold about 992.5 million XRP, while cumulative net inflows across the products have reached $1.51 billion. With XRP clinging to the $1 level, a tightening pool of available tokens is colliding with one of the most important support zones on the chart.

If that combination sparks the next major move, keep reading. The free report at the end explains the much bigger blockchain trend investors may want to understand before capital shifts again.

XRP Price Prediction: Can $1 Support Trigger a Run Toward $2?

XRP is trading almost exactly at $1, a level that has repeatedly acted as major support during the latest selloff.

That makes the setup unusually clear: hold this zone and buyers have room to attempt a recovery; lose it and the next meaningful support sits much lower.

The RSI is around 36, close to oversold territory, suggesting selling pressure may be getting stretched even as price remains weak.

If $1 holds and momentum turns higher, the first major target sits around $2. A clean breakout above that level could open the door to $2.50, followed by the larger resistance zone near $3.50.

The supply story could add fuel to that bullish case. ETF tracking data shows seven XRP funds collectively hold about 992.5 million XRP as of August 13. That does not guarantee a price increase, but those tokens remain held inside the funds rather than circulating freely in the market.

The bearish risk is just as important. If XRP decisively loses $1, the chart shows relatively little major support until roughly $0.50.

So with nearly 1 billion XRP already sitting inside investment products, the real question is whether buyers can finally turn shrinking available supply into a breakout.

Could 1 Billion Locked XRP Be a Sign of Something Bigger?

If institutions are willing to hold nearly 1 billion XRP while the price sits at long-term support, the bigger takeaway may be where capital is positioning before the crowd notices.
