<p>XRP price was one of the top laggards among the top players in the crypto market, witnessing a slump of nearly 2% at the time of writing. The recent dip below the brief $2 support has spooked traders, with many anticipating the crypto to fall further amid the gloomy start of December.</p>
<p>Notably, the broader crypto market started the week on a low note, impacting nearly all the top assets in the space. The Ripple coin was no exception, which has also followed the broader market trend and recorded a massive selling pressure since December 1.</p>
<p>Meanwhile, it seems that the plunge was mostly caused by the selling pressure from the large investors, often known as whales. However, despite that, recent data from a top on-chain analytics platform suggest that some traders are still optimistic about the future potential of the asset.</p>
<p>So, here we look at the recent activity of the whales and see what may lie ahead for the asset. In addition, a renowned expert has also highlighted the key XRP price levels to watch for its potential future movements.</p>

<p>Amid this, the leading on-chain analytics platform, Santiment, said that the XRP Ledger is witnessing an intriguing trend. According to the report, XRP whale and shark wallets are decreasing in number but accumulating more coins.</p>
