XRP rose about 1.5% over the past 24 hours as traders reacted to network-related headlines, including reports of unusual throughput/activity such as “unusual block creation with 120 TPS,” which can be interpreted as a sign of elevated on-chain usage (U.Today). Sentiment may also have been supported by Ripple’s CTO Emeritus pushing back on circulating XRP escrow claims, reducing uncertainty around token supply narratives (U.Today).
