Q4 2022 Performance Overview
Ripple Labs has released the results of the fourth quarter of 2022. The report contains not only important information about the company’s direct activities, but also provides an overview of the performance of XRPL, the decentralized blockchain ecosystem used by the company.
XRP Sales Figures
The net XRP sales revenue in Q4 2022 was $226.31 million, a decrease of 27.15% compared to Q3 2022.
Growing XRP Adoption
Despite the decrease in net revenue, the total XRP revenue via ODL increased by 5.12%. According to the report, this is largely due to the increasing demand and acceptance of technology, as well as expansion into French, Swedish, and African markets through new partnerships.
XRPL Progress
There was a yearly decrease in the on-chain activity of XRPL, but the number of burned XRP for fees decreased by 30.4% to 101,968. At the same time, the number of new wallets on the XRP Ledger spectacularly doubled on a quarterly basis to 228,143.
EVM Sidechain Launch
Ripple Labs continues to move forward and is constantly developing. The company is focusing on launching the first phase of its EVM sidechain, allowing popular DeFi applications such as Uniswap, Compound, and Aave to run on XRPL.
NFT Boom on XRPL
There has also been a massive surge in full NFT functionality on XRPL after the introduction of the XLS-20 standard. Since the implementation, more than 800,000 NFTs have been created and the number of transactions has increased by 410,600, adding extra volume to the XRP market.
