Amid today's tumultuous trading session on the crypto market, XRP, one of the foremost tokens by market capitalization, has seen a remarkable surge of over 3.5%. This surge coincides with a notable spike in trading volume, as reported by CoinMarketCap, indicating a staggering 43% increase compared to the previous day, totaling an impressive $3.76 billion.
Arman ShirinyanHowever, stealing the spotlight in today's market activity is the news surrounding South Korea's leading cryptocurrency exchange, Upbit. Reports from Whale Alert have unveiled a significant withdrawal of 18 million XRP tokens, valued at approximately $10.7 million. The tokens were swiftly transferred to an undisclosed wallet, leaving observers pondering the motives behind this substantial movement.
Such substantial withdrawals from exchanges often hint at strategic accumulation or storage of assets in separate wallets, suggesting potential bullish sentiment among investors. Conversely, movements of tokens toward exchanges typically indicate a predisposition toward selling.
Amid this significant withdrawal, XRP's upward trajectory remains unwavering, with its price soaring to $0.596 following the transfer. Notably, XRP commands a significant share of trading activity on Upbit, accounting for 5.61% of the exchange's total turnover and securing the fourth position in terms of trading volume on the platform.
