XRP Transactions Surge 65% as Utility Hits Record High
XRP Utility Hits Historic High as Real-World Adoption Accelerates The XRP Ledger (XRPL) is experiencing a major surge in real-world adoption, with XRP activity climbing to record levels. New research from Evernorth shows monthly XRP Ledger transactions jumped from 43 million to over 71 million in the past year alone, a fueled primarily by growing institutional demand and enterprise-level usage. Unlike the short-lived speculative surges common across crypto markets, XRPs latest growth appears to be driven by real business activity and payment infrastructure. According to Evernorth, speculative trading usually comes in sudden bursts, while true utility grows gradually as companies and financial systems consistently move real value across the network. Several major players are powering this growing momentum. For instance, Crypto exchange Bitstamp continues to be a key driver of XRP Ledger activity, with trading and settlement flows adding consistent volume to the network. Ripples RLUSD stablecoin is also gaining traction, with rising issuance and transfer activity strengthening its role within the ecosystem. Meanwhile, Justoken is boosting on-chain usage through DeFi activity, while Brazil‘s Braza Bank is pushing real-world adoption by integrating the XRP Ledger into cross-border payments and banking services. Institutional infrastructure provider VERT is also expanding the network’s footprint by supporting broader financial use
