Key Takeaways
Data from CryptoQuant shows that XRP velocity spiked to 0.0324 on December 2, the fastest turnover rate recorded this year.
Velocity reflects how often coins circulate across the network, and a reading this high indicates that XRP is being moved frequently rather than stored for long periods. The shift implies that transactional participation in the ecosystem has intensified even as price momentum cooled.
The pattern suggests that XRP holders — including larger addresses — may be reshuffling positions during the current market phase. Network data shows that tokens are flowing more rapidly between wallets, a behavior often associated with heightened liquidity and reactive trading environments.
Rather than signaling retreat, the movement points to steady engagement from market participants who are continuing to use XRP for settlements, programmatic transactions, or strategic reallocation.
CryptoQuant’s yearlong chart highlights that the ledger has maintained consistently high levels of circulation. The December jump stands out, but it follows a year marked by regular movement across the network.
Interestingly, this latest burst of activity arrived while XRP was still moving lower from its August peak near $3.50, trading around $2.17 by early December. Historically, these spikes often appear when sentiment is mixed and traders are adjusting exposure during downtrends.
The rise in velocity underscores that XRPL’s underlying utility remains intact. Even as the token’s price retraced, the network continued processing transfers at an accelerated pace — a sign that XRP’s role in settlement operations and transactional workflows remains active.
Analysts note that when velocity remains strong during periods of price weakness, it often indicates deeper network health. Long-term recoveries frequently begin with an uptick in usage rather than an immediate change in price direction.
