XRP Ledger Sees Record Growth Amid XRP Price Decline

The XRP Ledger has seen significant growth in the first half of 2026, adding nearly 490K new accounts to reach over 8.4 million total accounts.

This expansion is largely driven by the increasing adoption of Ripple's RLUSD stablecoin, which has reached a circulating supply of approximately $873 million.

The growth in RLUSD supply has led to increased demand for XRP through transaction fees, despite the asset's price falling 41% year-to-date.
