Another altcoin filling whale wallets is XRP

With the above, whales’ XRP accumulation has increased since the SEC and Ripple submitted their moves for summary judgment. According to Santiment, the price ratio of XRP/BTC has reached a one-year high of 0.000025. The final rise was the result of the latest filings in the case. He added that active addresses holding 1 million to 10 million XRP have increased since late 2022. Earlier, we mentioned that whales showed a major switch from Ethereum to XRP last week. This request comes after ETH made a historic transition from PoW to PoS.

However, the XRP price managed to bounce around 50% in the last week. The reason for this is the spread of positive mood in the market regarding the outcome of the case. In the past weeks, the Digital Chamber of Commerce (CDC) took its first step to join the Ripple-SEC lawsuit. Court Judge Analisa Torres accepted the CDC’s offer on September 21. The CDC will now take part in court-friendly status in the case. This status allows knowledgeable persons to assist the court. The CDC currently has until September 26. This development, which strengthened the Ripple side, gave momentum to the XRP price.
