Furthermore, the analyst also dismissed the notion of several people calling it the top for XRP. “In my opinion, we’re just getting warmed up. The ascent is going to be pure mania,” the analyst noted. XRP Whale Activity on the Rise The XRP price rally extended as the XRP whales purchased a staggering 160 million XRP, worth $380 million, during the last weekend. XRP has reached its highest levels in nearly seven years, fueled by significant accumulation from wallets holding 1M-10M XRP. Over the past three weeks, these wallets have added 679.1M XRP, valued at approximately $1.66 billion. Additionally, the total number of non-empty XRP wallets has surpassed 5.5 million for the first time in the coin’s eight-year history, reported blockchain analytics platform Santiment.

The parent firm currently holds 43% of the altcoin supply in the market. However, it turns out that after Ripple unlocked 1 billion XRP from escrow three days before, it immediately locked 770M XRP coins for another five years. Analyst CrediBULL crypto noted: “The “Ripple unlocks 1B tokens every month to dump on you” narrative has been repeatedly debunked so many times now that anyone still pushing that narrative at this point has to be doing it for engagement or is simply being willfully ignorant”. The XRP price is currently trading 12.67% up at $2.73 with a market cap of $155 billion. Also, the daily trading volume has also surged by 54% all the way to $4 billion. The Coinglass data shows that the open interest is up 4% to $4.35 billion hinting bullish sentiment among traders. The post How Long Will XRP Price Rally Continue? appeared first on CoinGape .
