On the first day of the year, Ripple was preparing for its most memorable symbolic XRP dump of 2025, with 300 million XRP of the 1 billion opened tokens. This is essential for a month-to-month selling strategy that began with XRP’s initial conveyance, reserving 80% of its inventory to Wave.
The fintech company made plans for the largest Ripple XRP dump to date, as well as the final offer of 2024. During these events, Wave saved and sold 470 million XRP in November and 200 million XRP in December.
To summarize the scenario, the US-based business sent 300 million tokens to the ‘Wave (1)’ account, according to data from XRP Output. This amount is from the ‘Wave (24)’ account, which had an open escrow of 500 million XRP for January 2025.

The group then re-secured the remaining 200 million opened tokens in another escrow within the ‘Wave (12)’ account.
Aside from the ‘Wave (24)’ open, January 2025 also settled an escrow in the ‘Wave (25)’ account with 500 million XRP. This was re-secured in another escrow under the ‘Wave (13)’ account, as completed in previous months.
Surprisingly, the additional 700 million opened XRP will be released from the new escrows by Walk 2028. Furthermore, the current year’s first open represents the last escrows from ‘Wave (24) and (25)’.
In 2024, Wave unloaded 3.22 billion XRP via the ‘Wave (1)’ account alone. There are reports that the corporation may have sold many more XRP coins last year, beginning with elective records.
At the current price, the recorded transactions are ostensibly worth $7.50 billion, with XRP trading at $2.33. In any case, Wave sold a huge percentage of the tokens for a far lower cost, given that XRP swapped for roughly $0.50 in 2024.
Swell dumps are extremely noteworthy in the cryptocurrency world since they are typically far higher than industry norms.
For example, the Ethereum Foundation has a $100 million annual budget for ETH transactions, which is already causing significant market disruption. This benchmark is especially impressive given that Ethereum has multiple times the market valuation of XRP while having a significantly lower annual unloading spending plan.
While the firm did not discover every sale on its own, Wave has proactively presented its selling approach at numerous events. According to sources, its XRP transactions are conducted using an On-Request Liquidity (ODL) approach, with willing consumers receiving them at market prices.
In any case, even this approach necessitates an imminent interest and undermines trade structure books by maintaining the majority of the XRP purchasing power.
