๐จ A cryptocurrency analyst denies claims of an 'supply shock' for XRP.
One cryptocurrency analyst responded to the growing claims that XRP is facing a supply shock, confirming that these concerns are exaggerated โ๐
๐ฐ The analyst clarified that about 16 billion XRP are already on trading platforms, ready for buying and selling, which currently provides sufficient liquidity for investors.
โก Transferring XRP happens within seconds, not days
Even the cryptocurrencies held outside exchanges can return quickly, as transferring XRP from a private wallet to an exchange takes only 3โ4 seconds โฑ๏ธ๐
๐ Order books are constantly changing
XRP order books are not static; sometimes an order to buy worth 10 million dollars is enough to raise the price, while at other times even 100 million dollars may not be enough to stop the decline ๐๐
๐ง About the accuracy of exchange data
The analyst explained that the circulating XRP balance numbers represent only the minimum, suggesting that the actual quantity is higher due to the presence of wallets not publicly visible.
๐ฅ When does a real supply shock occur?
According to the analyst, a real supply shock will only occur if there is an attempt to buy 30 billion XRP all at once; anything below that means the supply is still widely available.
๐ The decline in exchange balances does not mean an inevitable shortage
Despite the decline in XRP balances on centralized exchanges during 2025, this does not necessarily mean a shortage in supply; it may just indicate $XRP
