<p>In a recent price swing, whale tracking sites noticed large transfers of XRP tokens worth millions of dollars to exchange wallets. Whale Alert, a well-known crypto monitoring service, reported two distinct and significant XRP transfers on Twitter.</p>
<p>The initial transfer involved 25,200,000 XRP, or $15,368,209, which was sent to a <a href="https://x.com/whale_alert/status/1821675313161441489" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Bitso</a> wallet. The second transfer saw 7,770,000 XRP, worth $11,180,378, sent to a <a href="https://x.com/whale_alert/status/1821633339985457521" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Bitstamp</a> wallet. Notably, both transactions came from the same wallet, 5XgwHh4Rzn.</p>

<p>Typically, transferring assets to exchange wallets indicates an intention to liquidate or swap these tokens for others. At the time of writing, the sending wallet had only 209.37 XRP, worth around $125.50, indicating a significant decrease in its holdings following these massive transfers.</p>
<p>Meanwhile, as this piece is being written, Ripple’s token is trading at approximately <strong>$0.5985</strong>, down <strong><span style="color: #ff0000;">2.68%</span></strong> over the last 24 hours. It appears that these two transactions were a contributing factor in the most recent decline in the value of <span style="color: #008000;"><a style="color: #008000;" href="https://www.crypto-news-flash.com/ripple-xrp-judgment-sparks-anticipated-sec-appeal-will-xrp-hit-10-before/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">XRP</a></span>.</p>

<p>On the other hand, CNF recently <span style="color: #008000;"><a style="color: #008000;" href="https://www.crypto-news-flash.com/breaking-victory-for-ripple-as-xrp-is-not-a-security-in-the-us-125m-fine-for-the-truth/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">highlighted</a></span> Ripple’s big victory over the SEC, with XRP officially labeled a non-security. Additionally, the court decreased the SEC’s punishment for institutional XRP sales that violated federal securities laws from $2 billion to $125 million.</p>
<p>Following this triumph, as we previously <span style="color: #008000;"><a style="color: #008000;" href="https://www.crypto-news-flash.com/analyst-ripples-xrp-will-reach-20-in-a-year-from-now/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">reported</a></span>, an analyst anticipated that XRP would reach $20 within a year. The restrictions on institutions gaining exposure to Ripple’s coin appear to have been lifted, paving the way for a potentially huge leap in the future.</p>
