All of the XRP that will ever exist is already in circulation today. This means that no additional XRP can be generated in the future, preserving the scarcity of the digital asset.

The founders of the XRPL, the blockchain network on which XRP operates, took a strategic decision regarding the distribution of the currency. They gifted a significant portion of the total supply to Ripple, the company behind the development and promotion of XRP.

Specifically, 80 billion XRP, which represents 80% of the total supply, was gifted to Ripple. This move was likely intended to give Ripple the resources necessary to drive adoption and growth of the XRP ecosystem.

Unlike some cryptocurrencies where new coins can be mined continuously, the total supply of XRP is capped at 100 billion units. This finite supply ensures that no more than this amount can ever be created.
