XRP whales are going crazy! Large holders in the millions have soared to an all-time high, is this wave really going to take off?
Although XRP has been hovering around 2.2 recently, the off-chain activities are heating up:
The number of wallets holding over 1 million XRP has reached an all-time high: 2,850!
Not only that, since the beginning of the year, the number of wallets holding over 10,000 XRP has increased by 6.2%, surpassing 300,000—these whales are indeed quietly accumulating, a typical case of major holders 'silently doing big things'.
Even more intense:
Last week, XRP sales exceeded $915 million, and whales swept up 420 million XRP.
There were even a few large transfers: $58 million transferred to Coinbase, and Ripple itself threw out $439 million to some anonymous wallet.
Exchange reserves are declining, which looks like a signal for capital inflow, but experts also remind: caution in interpreting the data, not every transfer out is a new purchase, it could be 'internal car movement'.
However, from the trading volume perspective, XRP has indeed heated up this time:
In a short period, trading volume surged 4 times, with prices peaking at $2.23, finally stabilizing around $2.20.
Retail investors are also not idle, **Google search interest for 'XRP to $3' is soaring,** many are starting to bet on the big market from July to September.
If there can be substantial progress in the lawsuit between Ripple and the SEC, it will be a catalyst to directly put a rocket on XRP.
Some are calling out: target range $3-5, this is not a dream, the key is whether this wave of whales is really driving the market or just a last wave of confusing behavior.
Do you think this time XRP can take us flying? Speak your mind in the comments.
