XRP Whales Accumulate 380 Million Tokens in 10 Days as Price Nears All-Time High
Sep 20, 2024 at 02:42 pm
Over the past few days, prominent investors have been increasingly betting on XRP, loading up on the token with their holdings near an all-time high.
Prominent investors have been betting heavily on XRP in recent days, with their holdings of the token reaching levels not seen since early August.
According to on-chain data from Santiment, whales have collectively added over 380 million XRP tokens to their portfolios in the past ten days. This accumulation was highlighted by renowned market watcher Ali Martinez in a post on X.
Specifically, these investors, who have been accumulating XRP over the past weeks, typically hold between 10 million and 100 million XRP. This move suggests that large investors are optimistic about XRP's potential over the next few days or weeks.
The on-chain data from Santiment depicts a sharp rise in whale holdings. As the graph shows, these large investors have been accumulating XRP consistently in recent weeks.
Commencing in the first week of September, when XRP’s price dipped to just above $0.505, these whales became bullish, increasing their holdings from just below 6.78 billion XRP to over 7.04 billion. This accumulation closely correlated with XRP’s market value.
Specifically, XRP's price has risen from $0.5059 on September 6 to $0.5986 by September 14, representing an 18.32% increase in just eight days. While XRP corrected slightly in the following days, whale holdings spiked once more, reaching 7.17 billion XRP as of Thursday.
Whales Holding XRP Near All-Time High
It is important to note that these large investors’ current holdings of XRP tokens are approaching an all-time high, similar to the peak observed just seven weeks ago.
In the second week of August, whales accumulated XRP to a historic high, collectively holding approximately 7.2 billion tokens. This surge in accumulation occurred shortly after the resolution of the Ripple lawsuit, which contributed to the increased interest in XRP.
As a result, the price of XRP spiked by 30%. Meanwhile, these whales later reduced their holdings, probably capitalizing on the resultant gains. Their holdings dropped to around 6.5 billion XRP. This impacted the price of XRP, causing the token to tank to $0.5059 this month after reaching $0.6416 in August.
Factors Triggering Whale Accumulation on XRP
Now that whale accumulation is resuming, it raises the question of what is influencing their confidence in XRP this time. Indeed, XRP has seen crucial developments in the past few days that contribute to positive sentiment around the token.
For instance, Grayscale has launched an XRP Trust, allowing eligible investors, including institutions and individuals, to gain exposure to XRP. Since its launch last week, the net asset value (NAV) of the Grayscale XRP Trust has surged by over 11%.
