Caught something interesting while checking the charts earlier. XRP holdings on Flare jumped 10% in a single day back in late February, which is pretty wild considering the broader market was getting hammered at the same time. Price dropped from around $1.42 down to $1.30, but people were actually moving more XRP into the Flare ecosystem instead of panicking.
What's notable is the actual on-chain activity. Over 3 million XRP got bridged to Flare within 24 hours to mint FXRP tokens, with most of it ending up in yield strategies through Upshift. The FXRP supply crossed 114 million tokens, and about 89 million is locked in various DeFi protocols. That's a lot of people putting their assets to work in the Flare crypto environment, even when sentiment was rough.
The integration with Xaman Wallet made it easier too - you can now deposit XRP directly into vaults with one click. Looks like the fundamentals in Flare's ecosystem are holding up better than the short-term price action suggests. Real usage keeps expanding even when prices dip.
