Ripple’s cofounder and its first CTO has made nine transactions, carrying a total of 100.8 million XRP from his “tacostand” digital wallet.

Each of them bore either 12 million or 8.4 million XRP tokens. Today’s transaction was worth 8.4 million XRP.

Prior to the transfer on April 4, Jed had taken a month-long break in releasing XRP – the date of the previous sale was March 4, when 9,713,398.410000 XRP was withdrawn.

When Jed McCaleb left Ripple Labs (which started as OpenCoin a year earlier), he got a compensation of 9 billion XRP coins for cofounding the entity and his help as an CTO.

The settlement agreement prevented him from selling all the 9 billion coins at once to prevent the price collapse to zero.

So Jed started large XRP sales only in 2018 – approximately 6 million XRP, while the rare largest amount he sold prior to that was 3 million coins.

On 6 December 2020, McCaleb dumped as much as 29.5 million XRP.
