🍾🏆XRP records highest ever ‘whale’ activity as 7-day price gains near 100%
🚨XRP has experienced a significant price increase, up by 430% in the last 30 days, reaching levels last seen in 2018.
There's been an unprecedented movement of XRP by large holders (whales), with CryptoQuant data indicating high whale activity over the past month.
🤔However, this whale activity may signal potential market tops.
XRP prices have zoomed 430% in the past 30 days, reaching price levels last seen in 2018 and leaving scores of Crypto Twitter traders surprised with the strength. The rise started in early November after the Republican victory in the U.S. election reignited investor confidence in tokens linked to U.S. companies, including XRP's associated Ripple Labs.
Large holders are playing a key role in contributing to the move. CryptoQuant data shows whale activity – which tracks movements from large wallets to and from exchanges – has been consistently elevated since the past month, multiples higher than any other period.
⚠️🔥XRP's whale activity (CryptoQuant)
Whales can move markets with their buying or selling pressure, and tracking this can indicate their market sentiment.
For instance, if the cryptocurrency's inflow into exchanges (Exchange Inflows) is significant, it might suggest that whales are preparing to sell, potentially signaling a bearish market trend. Conversely, large outflows from exchanges might indicate accumulation by whales, which could be bullish.
However, such whale movements tend to coincide with local peaks, CryptoQuant's contributing analyst Woominkyu said in a post Monday, as sophisticated participants sell on retail inflows.
“Historically, significant spikes in whale-to-exchange transactions (marked by red circles) align closely with XRP price peaks,” Woominkyu stated. “This suggests that whales tend to move large amounts of XRP to exchanges to sell near local or cycle tops.”
“The latest spike in whale-to-exchange activity coincides with XRP reaching a local price of around $2.3. This could indicate whales preparing for potential profit-taking or increased market activity,” Woominkyu added.
XRP is up 14% in the past 24 hours, outperforming bitcoin and all other crypto majors, according to CoinDesk data. The token flipped Solana’s SOL and tether (USDT) in quick succession over the weekend — standing as the third-largest token by market cap as on Tuesday.

📛 Ripple's XRP sees over $4 billion in profit-taking following surge in whale activity
🤔Ripple's XRP declined briefly after South Korea declared martial law.
XRP whales have weathered over $4 billion in realized profits in the past three days.
XRP could spring to a new all-time high if it recovers above the $2.58 level.
Ripple's XRP is down 5% on Tuesday after news of South Korea declaring martial law sparked a surge in selling activity and significant profit-taking among investors. However, whales have stepped up buying pressure as the remittance-based token looks to stage a recovery.
XRP's rally temporarily affected by halting of trading in South Korean exchanges
After its impressive rally in the past week, XRP briefly declined 7% on Tuesday following news of South Korean President Yoon declaring martial law. The news triggered panic selling among investors, with prices on Korean exchanges deviating from the general spot market.

♻️ Ripple's XRP may see a rebound after recent pullback; on-chain data suggests further upward potential
🤔📈Ripple's XRP funding rate isn't very high compared to previous bullish seasons despite a 400% rise in the past month.
🚨 RLUSD will not debut yet despite rumors of an alleged launch on Wednesday.
XRP struggles to reclaim $2.58 amid a quest for a new all-time high at $3.57.
📮 XRP traded near $2.4 on Wednesday as Ripple Labs clarified that its RLUSD stablecoin will not debut on exchanges despite a rumored launch among crypto community members. Amid a sharp decline in XRP's price, on-chain data shows the remittance-based token still has the potential to resume its rally.
XRP could resume rally as attention turns to RLUSD launch
XRP witnessed double-digit losses on Wednesday, declining 11% despite its 400% gains in the past month. The asset has been among the top trending altcoins, leading the charge for the much-anticipated alt season.
🧑⚖️ Despite the massive rise, XRP's funding rate remains somewhat stable compared to levels seen during its rally in February 2024 and the March 2021 bull market, according to Coinalyze data.
⚠️ XRP Funding Rates | Coinalyze
A stable funding rate indicates that the market isn't overly bullish, and there's potential for further price growth, reducing the risk of overheating.
Likewise, XRP's weighted sentiment is also at low levels compared to previous rallies. This indicates that retail traders may not be the primary factor behind the asset's recent strong uptrend.
When retailers are not the major factor behind a price rally, it reduces the potential for panic FUD selling during market downturns.
📛 XRP Weighted Sentiment | Santiment
As traders and investors anticipate a rebound in XRP's price, attention has also turned to the upcoming launch of the RLUSD stablecoin.
RLUSD is Ripple's stablecoin pegged to the US dollar and aims to provide users with a more stable transaction asset. Major exchanges like Coinbase are already lining up to begin issuing RLUSD to customers for trade.
While most crypto community members anticipated the launch of RLUSD on Wednesday, Ripple clarified that the launch isn't happening yet as key details are being finalized with the New York State Department of Financial Services.
Despite some speculation, $RLUSD isn’t launching today. We’re in lockstep with the NYDFS on final approval and will share updates as soon as possible.
We are fully committed to launching under the supervision of NYDFS and upholding the highest regulatory standards. Stay tuned…

XRP faces sell pressure near $2.58 amid quest for new all-time high at $3.57
XRP declined 11%, sparking over $34 million in liquidations in the past 24 hours, per Coinglass data. Liquidations included $25.37 million from long positions and $8.75 million from short positions.
XRP has struggled to reclaim the $2.58 level after declining below it on December 3, meaning sellers are defending the level.
XRP/USDT 4-hour chart
If the decline continues, it could find support at $1.96 near the 50-day Simple Moving Average (SMA).
However, if XRP sustains a high volume move above $2.58, it could rally to the upper boundary of a key rectangle channel at $3.57 to set a new all-time high.
The Relative Strength Index (RSI) momentum indicator is trending downward and testing its midline, signaling weakening bullish momentum.

🤔♻️Ripple week in review: Can XRP resume rally to hit a new all-time high?
😎 XRP investors realized over $5.86 billion in profits during the week.
🛄 XRP whales are slightly tilted toward accumulation despite holding an average profit of nearly 400%.
📊XRP needs to overcome the $2.92 level to stage a rally to a new all-time high.
📈 Ripple's XRP is up 7% on Friday as whales are holding onto their tokens despite high profit-taking among retail traders. This attitude from whales could push XRP to a new all-time high at $3.57.
XRP on-chain data indicates bullish sentiment despite record profit-taking
After extending its rally and rising to a four-year high of $2.91 on Tuesday, XRP saw a pullback, declining by about 17% in the following three days.
The decline was potentially sparked by increased profit-taking, as revealed by the XRP Network Realized Profit and Loss indicator, which shows investors have booked gains of over $5.86 billion since December 1. Such profit-taking is normal among investors during bull markets, especially when prices reach new highs.
XRP Network Realized Profit and Loss | Santiment
This is evidenced in the XRP Mean Coin Age metric, which shows that selling activity was rising in the week across all coin ages, especially among the 2-3 years cohorts. When this metric sees a decline, it sigifies distribution among the respective coin age cohort.
XRP Mean Coin Age | Santiment
Despite the recent pullback from profit-taking, other XRP on-chain data indicates that bullish sentiment is still dominant in the market.
The XRP Market Value to Realized Value (MVRV) ratio, which measures all holders' average profit or loss, shows that investors are still holding onto over 388% of profit.
Notably, most of the recent selling activity may have been from retailers, as whales have shown a slight bias toward accumulation. This is seen in the chart below, which shows that investors holding between 1M - 10M XRP increased their stash by 260 million XRP tokens in the week.

#DUSKUSDT The price has broken the downtrend line well and with strong momentum and then pulled back to that trendline. We expect this pullback to be a sign of a continuation of the upward trend and, in the first step, it can touch the ceiling of this price of 0.33830 and then touch higher targets…
😬 XRP Struggles Amid Regulatory Uncertainty; BTC Sub-$100K
👨⚖️ SEC appeal plans weigh heavily on XRP prices; decisions may redefine US crypto market legal precedents.
🇺🇸 US BTC-spot ETFs attract record inflows, as investor confidence grows amid strategic reserve asset proposals.
📟 Capitol Hill embraces pro-crypto leadership, fueling optimism for regulatory clarity in the digital asset market.
XRP Price Volatility and Regulatory Impact
On Thursday, December 12, XRP declined by 2.37%, reversing a 0.91% from Wednesday, closing at $2.3379. XRP underperformed the broader crypto market, which dipped by 0.30%, taking the total market cap to $3.510 trillion.
Uncertainty surrounding Crenshaw’s renomination vote and whether the SEC will pursue the appeal continues to weigh on XRP demand.
Near-term price trends remain hinged on SEC plans to appeal. XRP could face renewed selling pressure if the SEC pursues the appeal, potentially pulling the token toward $1. Conversely, a withdrawal may drive XRP past its January 2018 all-time high of $3.5505.
A withdrawal would also set the Programmatic Sales of XRP ruling as a pivotal legal precedent for the US crypto market. This precedent may undermine the SEC’s ongoing legal cases against crypto exchanges, including Coinbase (COIN) and Binance.
In July 2023, Judge Analisa Torres ruled that Programmatic Sales of XRP did not satisfy the third prong of the Howey Test. In other words, XRP sales on crypto exchanges do not violate US securities laws.
