The XRP community is closely monitoring recent forecasts suggesting a potential XRP supply shortage on cryptocurrency exchanges. According to Edoardo Farina, founder of Alpha Lions Academy and a prominent XRP advocate, this shift could greatly reduce the availability of XRP for public trading with a definite timeline. XRP’s Recent Price Movement Triggers Supply Concerns XRP has struggled to maintain its upward momentum following its surge to $3.30 in mid-January 2025. Since reaching that peak, the asset has been trading largely within the lower $2 range, showing limited signs of recovery. This stagnant performance has caused concern among holders, especially as Bitcoin and other leading assets continue to achieve new all-time highs. Despite this, Farina believes XRP is still capable of a significant rally. In a recent post, he emphasized that a major driver of this potential rise could be a supply shock, a situation where the number of available tokens on exchanges becomes insufficient to meet demand. Farina Projects Supply Shock by 2030 Farina has proposed that a substantial drop in XRP availability on exchanges could occur by 2030. He argues that this supply limitation would make it increasingly difficult for investors to acquire the asset, potentially fueling a price surge. According to him, the foundation for this future scenario is already forming. $XRP might DISAPPEAR from exchanges by 2030.

Since the beginning of 2025, the number of XRP held on Binance has fallen from 2.939 billion to 2.857 billion, a reduction of 82 million tokens. While this change may appear marginal in percentage terms, it signals a downward trend in the availability of XRP on centralized platforms. Crypto analyst EgyHash highlighted this movement in a prior analysis, noting that reserves had reached their lowest levels since July 2024. The decline was particularly sharp following XRP’s rise to $3.30 in mid-January. Binance reserves peaked at 3.040 billion tokens on January 16, coinciding with XRP’s local high. This likely resulted from investors transferring their assets to exchanges to take profits. Since then, the reserve has decreased by over 180 million tokens, fluctuating throughout February and March. Comparisons to Bitcoin’s Supply Dynamics Farina and other analysts have compared XRP’s evolving supply trend to Bitcoin’s historical performance. In BTC’s case, consistent buying pressure from institutions and ETFs has significantly reduced its available float, contributing to recent price increases. A similar effect could occur with XRP if exchange reserves continue to decline. Additionally, the ongoing token burn from transaction fees may further reduce the circulating supply, compounding the potential for a future shortage. Despite recent price stagnation, some analysts maintain a bullish outlook. Sistine Research previously projected a price range of $33 to $50 for XRP, citing favourable long-term trends and reduced market supply. If Farina’s forecast materializes and a supply shock occurs, the resulting scarcity may significantly impact XRP’s valuation over the next few years.
