Daily successful payments on the XRP Ledger crossed 2.6 million for the first time in roughly four months, according to reporting from The Crypto Basic, aggregated by cryptorank.io on August 10, 2026. XRP is trading at $1.01 as this news dropped, with bullish on-chain metrics unable to provide the much-needed boost to price action.<\/p>\n

The increase follows a prolonged period in which XRP traded at lower price levels while activity on the XRP Ledger declined. The latest reading points to a pickup in payments activity after that downtrend.

$XRP<\/a> is showing a different kind of activity on the ledger today.<\/p>\n

In the latest 24-hour window, XRPL processed about 1.45 million transactions. Around 495,000 were payments. More than 835,000 were OfferCreate transactions.<\/p>\n

XRP Ledger Payments Reach a Four-Month High<\/h2>\n

The 2.6 million figure was described as the highest level for daily successful XRP payments in four months. The Crypto Basic report, as aggregated by cryptorank.io, linked the increase to renewed activity on the XRP Ledger despite XRP\u2019s extended price decline.<\/p>\n

The reading adds to a picture of elevated activity on the network, although the available data covers a single daily count. Earlier XRP Ledger figures show that payments are one component of wider transaction activity, alongside decentralized exchange operations and account-related transactions.<\/p>\n

June Data Showed Payments Leading Network Activity<\/h2>\n

Separate data from XRPScan, reported by Yahoo Finance on June 16, 2026, showed the XRP Ledger processed 769,646 total transactions that day. Successful payments reached about 427,000, accounting for more than half of the total activity reported in the snapshot.<\/p>\n

The network averaged 23.49 transactions per second at the time of that snapshot, with ledgers closing every 3.82 seconds. Decentralized exchange offer creation was the second-largest source of activity, while account operations also contributed to the total transaction count.<\/p>\n

The June 16 figures followed a June 15 session with 900,189 total transactions and 403,422 payments, according to the report. Both sessions recorded more than 750,000 total transactions, leaving the 1 million daily transaction threshold within reach if payments and decentralized exchange activity continue to build.<\/p>\n

Ripple\u2019s Revenue Target Beyond XRP<\/h2>\n

$XRP<\/a> just closed at its lowest since November 2024, and the on-chain read is more interesting than the price.<\/p>\n

\ud83d\udcc9 Price closed at ~$1.00 on Aug 12, the lowest daily close since Nov 2024 and roughly 69% below the January 2025 peak near $3.30.<\/p>\n

Ripple is also pursuing institutional infrastructure beyond the token itself. Yahoo Finance reported that Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse said the company expects to end 2026 with a $1Bn annualized revenue run rate, excluding XRP held on Ripple\u2019s balance sheet.<\/p>\n

The target follows Ripple\u2019s $1.25Bn acquisition of prime broker Hidden Road in 2025. The report said the acquisition added credit, clearing and prime-brokerage services to Ripple\u2019s existing payments business.<\/p>\n

For the XRP Ledger, the latest 2.6 million-payment reading marks a notable increase from the levels described in the four-month comparison.<\/p>\n

The June data also show that total ledger activity includes payments, decentralized exchange transactions and other operations, providing context for the network\u2019s broader throughput figures.<\/p>\n
