Back in 2017, the company locked 55% of the total XRP supply in a series of escrow transactions. It limits the number of new tokens circulated to 1 billion XRP per month.
It should be mentioned that XRP’s recent weak performance is related to Bitcoin‘s inability to sustain above $24,000 rather than to the unlocking of new tokens.

The total circulating supply of XRP is currently 48.3 billion tokens, according to data provided by CoinMarketCap.
