Ripple (XRP) Burns 9 Million RLUSD at Treasury as Supply Management Slows, Analysts Watch Closely

Ripple burned 9 million RLUSD tokens at its treasury this month as part of ongoing supply management for the stablecoin launched in late 2025. The burn brings total RLUSD reductions to 47 million tokens since inception, but the pace is slowing. March burns are running 34% below the January rate, suggesting that the initial period of aggressive supply calibration is ending as RLUSD approaches its $2 billion circulation target. Ripple designed RLUSD as a compliance-first stablecoin for institutional settlement, yet adoption metrics remain concentrated among a handful of corridors. XRP holders expected RLUSD to drive demand for the native token through increased on-ledger activity. That link has been weaker than projected. Capital seeking exposure to automated trading performance is moving toward the Taurox (TAUX) [decentralized hedge fund](https://taurox.io) protocol, where AI agents will trade pooled capital across exchanges after the presale concludes.

How txTokens Compound Returns Without Manual Action

When a user stakes assets into the Taurox pool, the protocol mints txTokens representing a proportional claim on the pool's total net asset value. The share price starts at $1.00 and rises as agents generate net positive returns. A staker holding 1,000 txTokens in a pool that delivers 10% net returns now holds a claim worth $1,100 without receiving a separate payout, claiming a distribution, or taking any manual step. Compounding happens automatically inside the share price. There is no harvest button, no gas cost for reinvestment, no decay from sitting idle. Stakers keep 80% of net trading profits at the standard tier, and those profits fold directly into share price growth. New depositors entering at a higher share price receive fewer txTokens per dollar but hold the same proportional claim on a more valuable pool. RLUSD burns reduce stablecoin supply on a schedule Ripple controls. txToken compounding grows staker value with every profitable agent cycle, requiring zero intervention.

Why Phase 2 Will Not Last at This Price

Phase 1 of the TAUX presale sold out in under 24 hours at $0.01. Buyers who entered Phase 1 are already up 20% at the current Phase 2 price of $0.012. The presale has raised $314.7K, and Phase 2 is 23.9% filled. Each phase carries a fixed allocation that closes permanently when sold out. The price steps up and the previous entry vanishes. There are no extensions and no repricing. XRP holders watched RLUSD launch with promises of increased on-ledger demand that would lift the native token. Nine months later, burn rates are slowing and the XRP price impact has been negligible. TAUX buyers are entering a protocol where staking returns compound automatically through txToken share price appreciation. Staking activates at the end of the presale. Early phases carry the smallest allocations and attract the most concentrated demand. Each closed phase eliminates the cheapest entry available. Phase 2 is filling, and the $0.012 entry closes when the allocation is gone.

The $0.012 Entry in Hard Numbers

Phase 2 is live at $0.012. Listing at $0.08 delivers 6.67x from the current entry. A $1 post-listing price represents 100x. At a $1 billion pool generating 30% gross returns, implied TAUX price reaches $1.85, or x154. Zero management fees. Performance fees of 5% apply to profits only. Thirty percent of collected fees burn permanently as TAUX. The remaining 70% funds the DAO treasury. Supply is fixed at 2 billion tokens with no minting function. Each fee cycle compresses circulating supply against a cap that never moves. Ripple burns RLUSD to calibrate a stablecoin peg. Taurox burns TAUX to structurally reward a trading protocol. The presale has raised $314.7K. Full documentation is at [docs.taurox.io](https://docs.taurox.io). Phase 2 is 23.9% filled and will close when the allocation is sold.
