Whale Activity
Recently, there has been a lot of activity from large investors, known as "whales." On November 6, big transactions included a massive transfer of 586 million XRP (about $297 million) to unknown wallets, indicating that major holders are consolidating their investments. One notable transfer created a new whale with 104 million XRP (around $56 million). In the last two weeks, large shareholders added about 390 million XRP (worth around $199 million) to their holdings, suggesting growing confidence in XRP as a long-term asset. The number of active accounts on the XRP Ledger has also increased significantly, from nearly 10,000 at the start of October to over 24,000 now, showing more community engagement. Ripple's CEO mentioned strong institutional interest, with companies looking to develop XRP ETFs and trust products, which could enhance XRP's market position.
