XRP Surges 10% in a Day as Whale Holdings Shatter All-Time Records

Whales are betting big on XRP—and the market's taking notice. The cryptocurrency just ripped past a 10% gain in 24 hours, fueled by record-breaking accumulation in deep-pocketed wallets.

Bullish or just another pump? While retail traders scramble, institutional players keep stacking—proving once again that crypto's 'democratized finance' still dances to the tune of whale-sized wallets.

Santiment described this trend as a strong bullish signal. “XRP is showing signs of strength,” the platform noted. “This dual trend of rising whale numbers and holdings is a very positive sign.”

Just a month ago, XRP had been stuck in a long 200-day consolidation phase, fluctuating between $1.90 and $2.90. But the breakout came as part of a larger crypto market rally. Bitcoin recently soared to new all-time highs, reaching $116,500, while Ethereum jumped over 17% this week to nearly $2,960.

The bearish traders also incurred huge losses as a result of the market momentum. CoinGlass data shows that $31.44 million worth of XRP short positions were liquidated during the recent price surge.

Santiment added that this is clear evidence that altcoin season has begun. As long as Bitcoin holds above the key $110K level, many traders are expected to rotate profits into altcoins like XRP.

With growing whale interest and rising prices, XRP is firmly back in the spotlight.
