The post Ripple Prime cleared $3 trillion. How much of it actually touches XRP? appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Ripple’s prime brokerage sits inside the DTCC’s clearing directory, holds a seat in the 50-firm tokenization working group, and clears more than three trillion dollars a year. The XRP community reads that as quadrillions coming to the ledger. The mechanics say something much narrower. Here is the honest accounting of how much of Ripple Prime’s business reaches the token, and what would have to change for that number to grow. Summary Ripple Prime clears more than $3 trillion in annual trades, but only a small portion of that activity currently creates direct demand for XRP. Most institutional settlement within Ripple’s ecosystem now relies on the RLUSD stablecoin, while XRP’s role remains largely limited to fees and internal collateral. Ripple’s position in the DTCC tokenization working group could expand XRP’s future use, but broader adoption depends on third party colla

The post XRP Price Prediction as Trump Says US-Iran Ceasefire is Over appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Ripple (XRP) price is down by 4.32% today, July 8, to trade at $1.07 at the time of writing. The ongoing drop comes as investors rush to sell off risk assets after President Donald Trump said that the ceasefire between the US and Iran is over. The 4% drop in XRP price because of escalating geopolitical tensions has caused $8.61 million in long liquidations per Coinglass data. This is the highest long liquidation seen by XRP since June 25. Risk Assets Tumble as Trump Calls End to US-Iran Ceasefire President Trump attended the NATO Summit in Ankara, and while there, he slammed Iran’s leaders and negotiators for not being truthful with the press about the negotiations that have taken place so far since the US and Iran signed a ceasefire deal on June 17. “To me, I think it’s over. I don’t want to deal with them anymore. They’re scum… They’re led by sick people,” Trump said. Trump’s st

The post XRP is vanishing from exchanges. Where the supply actually went appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Exchange reserves have fallen to a seven-year low of about 1.6 billion XRP, half what they were at the October 2025 peak. ETFs have absorbed nearly a billion tokens. Ripple still holds roughly 36 billion in escrow.

Summary XRP exchange reserves have fallen to a seven year low while spot ETFs have accumulated nearly one billion tokens and long term holders continue moving coins into private wallets. Ripple still controls about 36 billion XRP in escrow, but steady monthly releases and relocks have not stopped exchange balances from shrinking to multi year lows. The report says tighter supply alone has not lifted XRP’s price, with weak market demand continuing to outweigh the effects of a declining tradable float. Something
