When I activated my first XRP Ledger account the Base Reserve was 20 XRP.

Roughly $56 in current terms!

But good news about the XRP universe keeps flowing:

Activating a new XRP account now cost 1 XRP only and you have a new wallet. Ten times cheaper than just now!

Lowers the barrier for new entries.

📣XRPL Reserves Have Been Dropped

It's now 10x cheaper to start operating on the XRPL!

Account Reserve: 1 XRP (was 10 XRP)
Trustlines/Objects/NFTs: 0.2 XRP (was 2 XRP)

Excess XRP is freed up in your Xaman Wallet—ready to use now!
