XRP Ledger Sees 659% Surge in Active Addresses as Price Holds Firm

The XRP Ledger has seen a significant surge in active addresses, increasing by 659% over the past three days. According to data from Santiment, the number of active addresses on the XRP Ledger jumped from 47,180 to 358,330 in just three days. This sudden increase is attributed to the asset's recent price breakout, which has reignited interest across the crypto ecosystem.

The average daily active addresses on the network rose to six figures on August 24, reaching a high of around 305,000. Historically, August was predicted to be one of XRP's poorest performing months of 2026, but it appears that the tide has turned, with the asset delivering a massive gain of nearly 40% for August.

This is in contrast to previous years, where August saw steady negative returns. However, this month has proven to be an exception, making August about to become XRP's best performing month of 2026.
