<h2 id="strong-massive-xrp-transfers-to-bitso-and-bitstamp-spark-market-reactions-strong"><strong>Massive XRP Transfers to Bitso and Bitstamp Spark Market Reactions</strong></h2> 
<p>In the first transaction, the wallet transferred 26.40 million XRP, or approximately $15.725 million, to a <a href="https://x.com/whale_alert/status/1826732072817275056">Bitso</a> exchange wallet. Shortly later, the second transaction transferred 26.02 million XRP worth $15.509 million to a wallet on the <a href="https://x.com/whale_alert/status/1826732349435879770">Bitstamp</a> exchange.</p> 
<p>These large-scale XRP fluctuations have triggered reactions from users on X. Some users feel these transactions indicate an impending liquidation event, while others see them as a positive omen for the token’s future.</p> 
<p>Despite these speculations, <span style="color: #008000;"><a style="color: #008000;" href="https://www.crypto-news-flash.com/xrp-surge-sees-zero-whale-activity-confidence-grows/">XRP</a></span> has failed to hold its price above $0.60. At the time of writing, XRP is trading around <strong>$0.5984</strong>, down <strong><span style="color: #ff0000;">0.70%</span></strong> over the last 24 hours and remaining in a consolidation pattern over the last few days.</p>

<p>This prediction comes as on-chain activity for XRP picks up, keeping the crypto at the forefront of conversations, particularly given the ongoing regulatory issues with the US SEC.</p> 
<p>Furthermore, as we previously <span style="color: #008000;"><a style="color: #008000;" href="https://www.crypto-news-flash.com/researcher-predicts-xrp-boom-as-bitcoin-and-ethereums-tether-bubble-bursts/">noted</a></span>, a researcher known as SMQKE has indicated that XRP could outperform Bitcoin and Ethereum, especially in light of recent discoveries about Tether’s reserve problems. Citing a Bank of France research document, the analyst stressed that XRP is technologically better than Bitcoin and lacks bubble-like features.</p>
