Five of these transactions showcased colossal accumulations from Binance, the world’s leading cryptocurrency exchange, whereas one showcased a significant dump to Bitstamp, a Luxembourg City-based CEX.
Numerous whale addresses collectively accumulated 95.2 million XRP from Binance, whereas a renowned XRP whale transferred 22.6 million XRP to Bitstamp.

XRP Price Jumps
As of writing, the XRP price noted a jump of 0.39% over the past 24 hours and is currently trading at $0.6966. With a weekly surge of 18.30%, further accompanied by a monthly upswing of 31.29%, the token continued its movement toward the $0.7 mark, birthing a torrent of bullish buzz for a potential run to the $1 mark as well. With increased on-chain whale activity showcasing accumulations primarily, as seen above, market experts speculate about future pumps for the token.
However, derivatives data unveiled by Coinglass hinted that a consolidatory phase might be imminent, as open interest and volume dipped 1.83% and 33.25%, respectively. This hinted at a substantial decline in money entering the derivatives market, with investors showcasing sentiments of closing positions. Crypto market enthusiasts extensively eye XRP for further price action shifts as even though derivatives data signals a tint of bearishness, a tidal wave of optimism orbiting the Ripple-backed token’s potential run to $1 persists.
