The Ripple-backed token, XRP, appears to have birthed a torrent of speculative buzz across the cryptocurrency realm today, March 7, as it registered massive whale activity over the past 24 hours. Insights unveiled by the blockchain tracker Whale Alert spotlighted four noteworthy transactions, shifting roughly 66.06 million XRP, piquing the interest of crypto market traders and investors as XRP regained an upward momentum, per CoinMarketCap’s data.
Meanwhile, with optimism orbiting the Ripple-backed token’s potential run to $1 prevailing within the broader crypto market, these transactions birthed additional inferences among crypto market enthusiasts as derivatives data hinted at a bearish sentiment prevailing. However, XRP traded in the green as of press time, adding up to the speculative buzz.
