The XRP price seems to have encountered significant resistance to its growth 
over the week. As of Wednesday, April 22, the cryptocurrency tried but failed 
to close above $1.4540, and subsequent movements did not even reach the 
resistance region. While the XRP price continues to struggle, recent on-chain 
analysis suggests momentum might be building right beneath the surface. Hence, 
in the presence of the right conditions, the growing momentum could be the 
much-needed fuel for XRP’s breakout from its present stalemate. Whale Outflows 
On Binance Rise To 94.4% In a recent Quicktake post on CryptoQuant, analyst 
Amr Taha highlighted a growing divergence between XRP retail and whale 
outflows on Binance, the world&#8217;s largest cryptocurrency exchange by trading 
volume. The relevant indicator here is the Binance Whale Vs Retail Outflow 
Dominance metric. Related Reading: Dogecoin Keeps Getting Capped At This 
Parallel Channel Level, Analyst Says According to the analyst, Binance XRP 
outflows are now being driven more by its larger holders than by retail 
investors. In their CryptoQuant post, Taha pointed out that the whale outflow 
dominance has climbed as high as 94.4%, while retailers, on the other hand, 
have a mere 5.5% influence on XRP’s flows out of Binance. The crypto expert 
further noted that when readings from the Outflow Dominance metric return to 
levels similar to the current readings, it signals that larger-sized transfers 
are taking over. Interestingly, October 2024 was one such moment, followed by 
a similar reading in June 2025. Taha further noted that when this happens, the 
XRP price has a good chance of bouncing higher in the near term. An example 
can be seen after the rise in Whale Outflow Dominance seen in October, where 
XRP surged by over 525%; meanwhile, a 71% bullish move after a similar pattern 
in June 2025 also supports the notion. XRP Displays Triangle Pattern On Hourly 
Timeframe Meanwhile, analyst Ali Martinez noted in a recent post on X that a 
symmetrical technical structure is developing on XRP’s 1-hour chart, which 
could have a greater impact in the near term. The symmetrical triangle pattern 
typically signals indecision and consolidation, as price progressively forms 
lower highs and higher lows. In the chart shared by the analyst, XRP has made 
contact with the upper and lower boundaries of the triangle and seems to be 
heading towards another boundary once again. What&#8217;s special about this pattern 
is what comes after a clear breakout; a surge to the upside of the triangle 
could signal a bullish shift, while a breakdown could signal bearish intent. 
According to Martinez, the current triangle pattern could precede a 10% move 
on a breakout. Hence, market participants should proceed with caution or only 
after clear directional confirmation. As of this writing, XRP is valued at 
$1.44, with CoinGecko data reflecting a 0.7% growth over the past day. Related
