In a recent post on X, XRP-focused YouTuber Moon Lambo shared a visual breakdown illustrating how long it would take to burn the total supply of 100 billion XRP under various transaction and fee scenarios. The figures, generated by ChatGPT and presented in a detailed table, indicate that even under the most extreme conditions, the complete depletion of XRP through transaction fees would take thousands to millions of years. The table outlines eight potential cases, each combining different transaction per second (TPS) levels and per-transaction fees measured in “drops,” where one XRP equals one million drops. The current “today-ish baseline” scenario assumes 10 TPS and a 10-drop fee, leading to an estimated burn rate of 8.64 XRP per day. At that pace, it would take approximately 31.7 million years to eliminate all XRP from circulation. Even a tenfold increase to 100 TPS would only reduce the timeframe to about 3.1 million years. I asked ChatGPT how long it would take for all $XRP to be burned in various scenarios. Answer: Thousands of years. Or hundreds of thousands of years. Or millions of years. Depending on number of transactions and the transaction fee. Conclusion: We'll never run out of $XRP . pic.twitter.com/BziQAPf1EE — Moon Lambo (@MoonLamboio) October 27, 2025 Scaling the Scenarios The data further explores high-volume transaction environments. At 1,000 TPS and 10 drops per transaction, XRP would burn at a rate of 864 XRP per day, requiring around 316,000 years to reach zero supply. Increasing the rate to 10,000 TPS under the same conditions reduces the duration to approximately 31,000 years. The calculations become more notable when the transaction fees increase. For example, 10,000 TPS at 100 drops per transaction leads to 86,400 XRP burned daily, equating to approximately 3,169 years to burn all XRP. When scaled further to 100,000 TPS and 1,000 drops, the supply would vanish in about 32 years. The most extreme example—1,000,000 TPS with a 1,000-drop fee—results in a complete burn in just three years. However, such a scenario is considered unrealistic under current network usage and fee structures.

He noted that while burning affects the total circulating supply, the market price is ultimately influenced by the balance between supply and demand. Therefore, he cautioned that investors should not depend on the slow burn rate as a mechanism for XRP price appreciation. Moon Lambo’s post highlights that the natural XRP burn rate is negligible in terms of supply impact. Even at significantly higher transaction volumes and fees, the process of eliminating the total 100 billion XRP supply would extend across thousands or even millions of years. As ChatGPT’s calculation concluded, XRP’s deflationary mechanism through transaction fees is too gradual to exhaust the asset’s total supply.
