On-chain data shows the XRP whales have transferred significant amounts in the 
asset during the past day. Here&#8217;s where the coins are heading. XRP Whales Have 
Just Made Two Large Transactions According to data from cryptocurrency 
transaction tracker service Whale Alert, two massive transfers have been 
spotted on the XRP blockchain in the last 24 hours. Both of these moves were 
of a scale that can be associated to the whales, entities that carry 
significant amounts in their wallets. Due to their size, these investors can 
hold some degree of influence on the network, so their transfers can be worth 
keeping an eye on. They may not always directly affect the asset, but they can 
still sometimes be revealing about the sentiment among the cohort. Related

only possible to speculate on transactions when they involve at least one 
wallet that&#8217;s identifiable. Cryptocurrency networks are, after all, anonymous 
by nature, so a lot of transfers don&#8217;t hold any meaningful information. The 
older of the two XRP whale transfers from the past day, which also happens to 
be the much more massive of the two, was unfortunately of the type with no 
known addresses. As is visible above, the transfer involved around 200 million 
XRP, worth a whopping $700.6 million at the time that the move was executed on 
the blockchain. The transaction occurred between two unknown wallets, meaning 
that they were likely to have been self-custodial addresses. As mentioned 
before, it&#8217;s hard to infer anything from moves like these, as they can have 
any underlying reason, ranging from something as simple as a change of wallets 
to a peer-to-peer (P2P) sale. The second whale transfer for the day, however, 
was different. Below are the details associated with this move. This 
transaction, which saw the movement of 16.8 million tokens of the asset (about 
$58.3 million), had an unknown wallet as the sender, but on its receiving end 
was an address associated with cryptocurrency exchange Coinbase. Moves of this 
type, where coins flow from a self-custodial wallet to a centralize exchange, 
are called Exchange Inflows. Generally, holders deposit their coins to these 
platforms when they want to make use of one of the services that they provide, 
which can include selling. As such, Exchange Inflows can sometimes prove to be 
bearish for the cryptocurrency&#8217;s price. Related Reading: Solana Becomes The

have been the motive behind it. XRP Price At the time of writing, XRP is 
trading around $3.27, up over 9% in the last week. Featured image from Dall-E,
