How active is the XRP Ledger in payments, new accounts and AMM pools?

About

What it answers, and for whom.

The XRP Ledger records every transaction with its type, so its use can be read directly: payments, offers on its built-in exchange, deposits into AMM pools, trust lines for issued currencies and escrows. This dashboard counts each type per day from validated ledgers, adds up what payments actually delivered, counts accounts funded for the first time and tracks the AMM pools and the XRP destroyed as fees.

Use it to see what drives activity on the ledger: payments between accounts, trading on the exchange or issued currencies such as RLUSD. Payment amounts come from each transaction's delivered amount rather than its stated amount, and every daily figure is pinned to the validated ledgers it was read from.

Method

How it will be measured.

Every figure will be read at a block, kept with its source and its exact read, and open a receipt anyone can re-check.

How receipts work →
  1. Transactions are counted by TransactionType (Payment, OfferCreate, AMMDeposit, AMMWithdraw, TrustSet, EscrowFinish and the rest) across validated ledgers closing in each UTC day, with successful and failed results kept apart.
  2. Payment volume uses the delivered_amount in each transaction's metadata, which can be lower than the Amount field on partial payments, split into XRP and each issued currency.
  3. New accounts are AccountRoot objects created in the day, read from the CreatedNode entries in transaction metadata.
  4. AMM pools are the AMM ledger objects in the day's last validated ledger, with their asset balances read through amm_info.
  5. The XRP destroyed is the sum of the Fee field of every transaction, which the ledger burns rather than pays to validators; each figure carries a receipt with the ledger index and hash.

Questions

Questions people ask.

How many transactions does the XRP Ledger process each day?

The dashboard shows the daily count from validated ledgers, split by transaction type. The split matters: payments, exchange offers and AMM activity are different kinds of use, and offers that are placed and cancelled can raise the total without any value moving.

What happens to XRP Ledger fees?

Every transaction pays a small transaction cost in XRP that is destroyed, not paid to validators. The cost exists to make spam expensive, and it slowly lowers the total XRP in existence as the ledger is used.

What is the XRP Ledger AMM?

An automated market maker built into the ledger itself, added by the AMM amendment. Each pool holds two assets, and liquidity providers deposit and withdraw with dedicated transaction types, so pool activity can be read without decoding any smart contract.

What is RLUSD?

A US dollar stablecoin issued by Ripple on the XRP Ledger and on Ethereum. On the ledger it is an issued currency held through trust lines, so its payments and holders can be counted like any other issued asset.

What is a partial payment?

A payment flagged so it may deliver less than its stated amount when the path cannot deliver it in full. Counting the Amount field would overstate volume, so the dashboard uses the delivered amount recorded in metadata.

Validated ledger
A ledger version the network's validators agreed on; the transactions in it are final.
Trust line
A link between two accounts that lets one hold a currency issued by the other, such as a stablecoin.
Delivered amount
The amount a payment actually delivered to its destination, recorded in the transaction's metadata.
Account reserve
The XRP an account must keep to exist on the ledger and for each object it owns; it is locked, not destroyed.
