Despite the ongoing legal battle between the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and Ripple Labs, XRP has managed to maintain its top position. According to the crypto transaction tracker Whale Alert, 79.8 million XRP has been moved between wallets and exchanges in three transactions over the past 24 hours. Two of these transactions involved substantial accumulations of XRP. A prominent XRP whale has consistently been moving cryptocurrencies to exchanges, attracting significant interest from investors in the market.
In the realm of Ripple, there has been notable activity by whales. Addresses rfQ9EcLkU and rarG6FaeYh have collected 25.22 million and 26.26 million tokens, respectively, from the leading cryptocurrency exchange Binance. Additionally, a well-known XRP whale at address …Rzn has transferred 28.32 million XRP to Bitstamp, a cryptocurrency exchange based in Luxembourg. These transactions, which showcase both accumulations and declines, have evoked mixed reactions among analysts and investors. Speculation has intensified further with the recent revelation that Ripple has moved substantial amounts of XRP to an escrow vault. As part of its monthly strategic move, Ripple has unlocked 1 billion XRP, which has had an impact on the token’s market dynamics. Simultaneously, the Ripple-backed cryptocurrency has gained upward momentum, with its price surpassing $0.52 today.
However, data from 21milyon.com indicates that XRP is struggling to maintain its position above $0.52. The token rose to $0.5225 but subsequently dropped to a low of $0.517 in the past day. At the time of writing, XRP’s price stands at $0.52, representing a 0.45% increase in the last 24 hours. The market value of the token is $28.83 billion. However, data from derivatives suggests that there is a mix of sentiments among investors in the market. While futures open interest (OI) has declined by 2.67%, volume has seen a 1.42% increase. This mixed outlook could be contributing to the token’s volatile price movement.
