Escrowed XRP is like Schrödingers cat.
If 80% of the validators deems the escrowed XRP to be sent to a blackholed address.
There will not be any more XRP.
The escrowed XRP is only released when it is actually released.
It is there and not there at the same time.

This is the 1st time Ripple created new escrows before releasing monthly escrows
This means the 1B released has been added to Ripple's XRP, NOT in escrow.
I sold a few percent when it went up out of the blue and retraced before going up further.
But we will see $2.10's soon enough again.
It was just an announcement.

Because it is not in Ripple's hands anymore.
It depends on the validators and what they vote for concerning the escrowed XRP.
