- The action of XRP prices has remained under pressure, indicating a strong momentum of sale.
- Will whales intervene or are there more decrease in advance?
Ripple (XRP) jumped 8% this week, with a 40% leap in daily volume while whales increased the drop by $ 2.40.
The bulls are hungry, but can XRP go to $ 3, or is it a decline on the horizon to shake these weak hands before the start of the real rally?
The following movement could be huge – look carefully.
Bitcoin dominance rebounds
The active accounts on the large XRP book fell 76% compared to the electoral levels, when he culminated at 109K.
This sharp decline indicates a massive benefit while the weak hands leave the cycle after taking the increase in XRP at $ 3.40.
Despite this, the XRP price table shows signs of fresh accumulation with a crucial support of $ 2.40, the whales taking 60 million XRP in just 24 hours.
This could be the first stages of a $ 3 rally, just as we saw in the previous cycles.
However, the down pressure remains strong. Three right red candlesticks on graph 1D indicate the pressure during the sale, and the drop in active addresses adds to the downward box.

This change is also reflected in the XRP / BTC pair, which, after a ten -day rally, is cooling now.
The recent 8% increase in XRP seems to be the result of the fact that capital came out of BTC in Altcoins – a classic decision while investors rebalance their portfolios.
However, the Bitcoin dominance (BTC.D) is bonded by 1.01%, pushing almost 61.20%. With this increase, it seems that Bitcoin can recover its focal point position on the market.
Is XRP’s support threatened?
Unlike January, when the whales aggressively accumulated more than $ 1.5 billion in XRP – driven by wallets holding between 100 m and 1b – this month has experienced a striking contrast, without “major” accumulation in view.

These major missing movements create an uncertainty and question the merchants of the market management.
With Bitcoin in the spotlight, the next few days will be crucial to determine if investors double the undulation or will be on the sidelines.
The FOMO retail trade is not found, and without whale support, ripple risks with $ 2.40 – or worse, which breaks below.
