700 million XRP re-escrowed after 1 billion were released; up 280.81% in November 2024

Ripple re-locked 700 million XRP into escrow after releasing 1 billion XRP from its November escrow cycle, leaving 300 million XRP outside escrow. On-chain records from the XRP Ledger show two releases of 500 million XRP each on November 1 at around 9 a.m. KST, followed by re-escrow transactions of 100 million, 500 million, and 100 million XRP between 2:38 and 2:42 a.m. KST on November 2. The 300 million XRP remaining outside escrow represents the difference between released and re-locked amounts, though the ledger does not reveal whether these tokens were sold or moved to exchanges. The headline figure of 280.81% appears to reference a monthly metric tied to November 2024, though the article is truncated. Escrow mechanics matter to XRP supply dynamics because scheduled monthly unlocks of up to 1 billion XRP are a recurring potential overhang, and market watchers will track whether the un-re-escrowed 300 million XRP flows to exchanges or is re-locked later.
