Data shared by the cryptocurrency analysis platform CryptoQuant reveals a remarkable increase in transfers by large XRP investors to Binance, one of the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchanges. In the last 30 days, the total amount of XRP sent by whales to Binance reached 1.66 billion, marking the highest level in the last seven months.
According to CryptoQuant data, 30-day whale inflows, which reached approximately 1.65 billion XRP in September, subsequently declined. However, transfers have recently gained momentum, allowing the previous peak to be surpassed. As a result, the activity of large investors on Binance has reached its highest level in the last seven months.
Large-scale transfers of XRP by whales to centralized exchanges are considered a significant indicator of potential increased selling pressure. The movement of XRP assets by large whales to exchanges could increase the amount of tokens available for sale in the market, potentially putting downward pressure on the price.
However, CryptoQuant added that the increase in transfers to exchanges does not necessarily mean that direct sales are taking place. These movements could be due to a redistribution of asset allocation among wallets or the use of different trading services offered by Binance.
According to the analysis platform, while the recent surge in whale inflows indicates that large investors are becoming active again in the XRP market, it is not sufficient on its own to determine the future direction of the price.
