According to the <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://whale-alert.io/transaction/ripple/E3F9844EF05A964D033562CE78D2BC5B2280018FDD9EB2D7270F255A0BBC5C25" target="_blank">data</a> revealed by the blockchain tracker Whale Alert, a staggering 27 million XRP, worth $14.87 million, was shifted to Bitstamp, a Luxembourg City-based <a href="https://coingape.com/glossary/centralized-cryptocurrency-exchanges-cex/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">CEX</a>. Furthermore, this transaction piqued additional interest as the wallet noted to be making this transfer, …Rzn, has previously been recorded, making similar such transfers. Following Ripple’s strategic stake acquisition in the above-mentioned CEX, these dumps to Bitstamp and similar dumps to Bitso emerged as a recurring phenomenon.
Intriguingly, this substantial dump to a CEX, increasing XRP’s supply in the market, has failed to push the prices down, as seen by XRP’s price pump today. This stirred a whirlpool of speculations among crypto market fanatics as Ripple, the firm backing XRP, faced a new <a href="https://coingape.com/xrp-vs-sec-ripple-faces-new-class-action-for-unregistered-xrp-offerings/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">setback in the Northern District of California</a>.
