The
$XRP Ledger has now begun averaging 2.5 million daily successful payments, representing a marked uptick from the previous 1.5 million figure last quarter.
$XRP ’s price action has been unfavorable to the average investor since the fourth quarter of 2025. After opening October 2025 at $2.84, XRP has since collapsed to the current price of $1.39, representing a 51% decline since Q4 2025.
However, data shows that while XRP has performed woefully in price action amid a broader market downturn, on-chain activity has picked up. Specifically, daily successful payments on the
$XRP Ledger stood at 1.5 million in Q4 2025, but have now increased to around 2.5 million this quarter.
Key Points
While the XRP price has struggled over the past five months, down 51% since October 2025, on-chain activity has picked up since then.
According to data, daily successful payments on the XRP Ledger averaged 1.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2025.
Right now, in Q1 2026, these successful payments have approached an average of 2.5 million daily, recently crossing 2.5 million.
In the current quarter, successful payments recently soared to a 15-month peak of 2.7 million earlier this month.
Daily deposits into automated market makers (AMM) also recently spiked to an all-time high of above 11,123, confirming that the increased activity transcends payments.
XRPL Seeing Increased Activity Despite Price Struggles
Notably, the XRP price has entered a steep downturn amid a broader market pullback that has pushed Bitcoin (BTC), the crypto firstborn, to lows below $65,000. At the current price of $1.39,
$XRP has dropped nearly 24% year-to-date, down more than 61% from its all-time high of $3.6, attained in July 2025.
Amid the decline, XRP has witnessed a fourth consecutive losing month for the first time since 2019, and is on track to record a fifth straight monthly loss for the first time in nine years. Interestingly, on-chain activity has only spiked since the start of this year despite the persistent downward pressure on prices.
Daily Successful Payments Hit 2.5M
According to on-chain data provided by XRPScan, daily successful payments on the XRP Ledger have averaged 2.5 million since the first quarter of this year began. Notably, daily successful payments soared to a 15-month peak of 2.727 million on Feb. 5, coinciding with a 19% decline in price that day. The last time the XRPL recorded a higher figure was in December 2024.
Meanwhile, in January 2026, daily successful payments ranged from 1.7 million to 2.1 million. However, as February emerged, these successful payments saw a marked uptick again, eventually ranging from 1.8 million to 2.6 million, with an average of 2.5 million. Notably, over the past four days, successful payments have come in at 1.8 million, 2.2 million, 2.57 million, and 2.56 million.
AMM Deposits Hit All-Time High
Besides successful payments, deposits into automated market makers (AMM) have also exemplified the XRPL’s growing adoption. Specifically, on Feb. 23, deposits into AMM pools surged to a high of 11,123, marking a new all-time high. Before now, the daily peak stood at 4,951 on Oct. 11, 2024.
Meanwhile, total AMM pools have continued to grow, reaching a new all-time high of 26,878 at press time. This represents an increase of 2,428 pools this year so far, with Q1 more than a month away from ending. Throughout Q4 2025, the XRPL only saw 1,885 additional pools.
