XRP, one of the top five cryptocurrencies by market cap, sparked immense curiosity within the crypto realm as the token noted noteworthy whale transactions on Thursday. Moreover, whale transactions amid the price upswing indicated by the token today birthed a cyclone of speculations across the broader crypto market.
In alignment with the price jump witnessed by the Ripple-backed cryptocurrency, a prominent crypto analyst also conveyed opinions on the token’s market performance.
XRP Whale Transfers Funds To CEXs
Whale Alert, a platform offering blockchain data, unveiled two substantial XRP whale transactions today, December 14.
According to the data, an unknown wallet transferred 42.8 million XRP to two different CEXs, Bitstamp and Bitso. The anonymous wallet, r4wf7enWPx…5XgwHh4Rzn, moved 24.6 million XRP to Bitstamp, while in another transfer, moved 18.2 million XRP to Bitso. The amount of tokens transferred to Bitstamp totaled $15.28 million, while the transfer to Bitso was evaluated as $11.30 million.
