The former metric is a measure of the daily total number of wallets coming online on the blockchain for the first time, while the latter tracks the amount of the cryptocurrency&#8217;s supply that became involved in at least one transaction over the past month.<\/p>\n<p>First, here is a chart that shows how the number of new addresses has fluctuated on the XRP network over the last few years:<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/pbs.twimg.com\/media\/HHuLSXgWkAYLONR?format=jpg&amp;name=4096x4096\" alt=\"XRP New Addresses\" width=\"3200\" height=\"1800\" \/><\/p>\n<p>As displayed in the above graph, the 7-day average number of new addresses popping up on the XRP network shot up to a peak in late 2024. This massive spike in the metric appeared alongside a sharp bull rally for the cryptocurrency. Thus, it would appear that the bullish momentum was accompanied by a surge in adoption.<\/p>\n<p>From the chart, it&#8217;s visible that what followed the explosive influx of new investors was a significant cooldown in the metric during 2025. Adoption still saw some spikes, but they were of a notably lower level than the December 2024 high.<\/p>\n<p>In 2026, the decline in the indicator has only furthered. Today, there are just 2,700 new addresses joining the network every day. This reflects a drop of 85% compared to the December 2024 peak, when the metric reached a value of 18,000.<\/p>\n<p>Adoption isn&#8217;t the only metric that has slowed down for XRP. As the data of the other indicator shared by Glassnode shows, the 7-day average value of the monthly active supply has also plummeted.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/pbs.twimg.com\/media\/HHuLU3rWEAQRnG2?format=jpg&amp;name=4096x4096\" alt=\"XRP Active Supply\" width=\"3200\" height=\"1800\" \/><\/p>\n<p>As is apparent from the chart, activity on the network also witnessed a major spike alongside the bullish price action of late 2024, with 7.45 billion tokens becoming part of the 1-month active supply. Following the bearish market shift since Q4 2025, the indicator has noted a sharp drop for XRP. Currently, just 2 billion tokens make up this segment of the cryptocurrency&#8217;s supply, which is lower than even the lows from the 2022 bear market.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The speculative wave that drove XRP&#8217;s late-2024 surge has largely unwound at the network level,&#8221; explained the analytics firm. It now remains to be seen whether the quiet on the network will persist in the near future or if another shift will arrive.<\/p>\n<p>Related Reading: XRP Nears Triangle Apex\u2014Will A Breakout To $1.80 Follow?<\/p>\n<h2>XRP Price<\/h2>\n<p>XRP surged to a high above $1.45 on Wednesday, but the coin has since retraced to the $1.38 level.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tradingview.com\/x\/EMemx0ke\/\" alt=\"XRP Price Chart\" width=\"1486\" height=\"957\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Data shows the XRP blockchain has seen a steep drop in metrics related to activity and adoption, indicating that the earlier speculative wave has faded.
