The fact that the wallet address has been moving similar amounts of XRP to the Bitstamp exchange amidst recent price drops is drawing the attention of cryptocurrency investors. Moreover, the crypto whale’s transfers to Bitstamp are becoming more significant as they follow <a href="https://en.coin-turk.com/blackrock-takes-action-xrp-coin-etf-application-officially-submitted/" data-wpel-link="internal">Ripple</a>‘s recent strategic share buyback on the cryptocurrency exchange. 
Market observers are focusing on the fact that the altcoin’s price continues to fall while the crypto whale continues and may continue to sell. 
<h2 style="text-align: justify" id="strong-current-situation-of-xrp-s-price-strong">Current Situation of XRP’s Price</h2> 
The price of XRP, issued by Ripple, has seen a 2.34% decrease in the last 24 hours, trading at $0.5389. The altcoin’s 12.61% drop over the weekly timeframe is noteworthy. 
Interestingly, the cryptocurrency exchange’s transfers of XRP to Bitstamp coincided with today’s price drop. Additionally, the altcoin’s market value and trading volume also significantly decreased today. 
However, closely followed cryptocurrency analyst XRP Whale made a contrarian comment despite the downturn. The analyst made a striking statement suggesting that February will be a great month for the Ripple-backed altcoin.
