5 Ways XRP Ledger is Changing the RWA Tokenization Map

The post Ripple set for mega 2026 sixth 1 billion XRP dump tomorrow appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Ripple is set to unlock 1 billion XRP from escrow on June 1, 2026, marking the fifth scheduled token escrow release of the year.  At XRP’s current price of around $1.35, the release carries a headline value of roughly $1.35 billion, making it one of the largest recurring token unlock events.  Despite concerns over large XRP unlocks, Ripple typically re-locks 60% to 80% of released tokens, limiting net supply additions to roughly 200 million to 400 million XRP, worth about $272 million to $544 million at current prices.  The released tokens are mainly used for operations, liquidity, partnerships, and ecosystem growth, while the escrow system helps manage supply dilution. The Ripple XRP escrow unlock is part of the company’s long-established monthly release mechanism that has been in place since December 2017.  Impact on XRP price  The system was designed to improve transparency aroun

How resilient is the XRPL consensus mechanism against state-level interference? They also asked, “Could an authoritarian regime like Putin’s co-opt or disrupt the UNL/validator network to weaponize the ledger?” In response to the conversation, Schwartz agreed that governments might be able to pose short-term issues to blockchain networks.

The post First Time in History? Ethereum (ETH) Nears Third Straight Red Quarter appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. During one of the most difficult times in the asset’s history, Ethereum is getting close to a milestone that few investors anticipated. For the first time since it started trading, ETH may experience three consecutive monthly losses if current market conditions hold true through June. According to historical data, Ethereum has never closed in negative territory for three consecutive months.  Even though the asset has gone through severe bear markets, such as the 2018 collapse and the 2022 crypto winter, it has always been able to break losing streaks with at least one positive monthly close before falling for a third time in a row.

The RSI has dropped to 31.93, marking the first genuine oversold reading we’ve seen in weeks.
