Ripple now faces a 20% XRP holding cap under the U.S. Digital Asset Market Clarity Act of 2025. The company holds over 34.4 billion XRP in escrow, requiring it to reduce holdings by more than 14 billion to meet the threshold. The bill aims to ensure blockchain systems avoid concentrated ownership to qualify as commodities. On-chain news suggests potential strategies include sales, transfers, or institutional arrangements. Digital asset news outlets report ongoing speculation, though Ripple’s CTO has ruled out token burns. The bill is now under Senate review.
