According to Maartunn, a pseudonymous cryptocurrency analyst at CryptoQuant, XRP whales are currently in the process of heavily offloading their tokens. π¨ Oh no, the whales are throwing a massive party and everyone’s invited… except the price of XRP! π
π¨XRP Whales are selling heavily π
It’s clear distribution. π

The chart shared by the analyst shows that whale flows on the XRP Ledger recently flipped into negative territory. π Like a toddler with a cookie, the whales are taking their share and running. πͺ
A similar pattern, for instance, could be seen in early 2025, when the price of the token reached a local peak. This coincided with sustained whale distribution. Of course, the XRP token suffered a major correction back then. π€― Remember when we thought we were on top of the world? Now we’re just a footnote in the XRP saga. π

This represents a 3.55% increase over the past 24 hours. π° CME’s XRP futures are gaining more popularity with a 16% increase increase in OI. As reported by U.Today, they recently became the fastest contract of the Chicago-based trading behemoth to reach $1 billion in OI. π The OI is on a rollercoaster, and it’s not the fun kind. π’
