Ripple’s Chris Larsen Unnerves XRP Community with Latest Transfers

As a seasoned crypto investor with a keen eye for market trends and a deep respect for industry veterans, I find myself intrigued by Chris Larsen’s recent XRP transfers. Being no stranger to the extravagant lifestyle of high-profile figures within the crypto sphere, I can’t help but wonder if he’s planning another addition to his impressive fleet of supercars. After all, a man who flaunts a Porsche 918 Spyder is never too far from considering a second one, right?


Ripple co-founder Chris Larsen has puzzled the community with another series of XRP transfers that took place on Monday. 

64-year-old tycoon transfers 3 million Ripple tokens to Binance, while moving an additional 15 million tokens into a digital wallet linked with Bittrex exchange.

Lately, the XRP community has been left puzzled by the recent transactions, as numerous individuals are guessing what the ultimate goal might be behind them.

Some locals have playfully proposed that he might be considering purchasing another luxury sports car from Porsche. Larsen is well-known for his flair in cars. Previously, the co-founder of Ripple made a splash on social media with his Porsche 918 Spyder, a contemporary symbol of Porsche ownership that typically comes with a price tag of seven figures.

Larsen is equally known for his extensive contributions to politics. As an entrepreneur, he has been deeply immersed in the political scene of San Francisco, frequently contributing large sums of money as donations to multiple politicians.

More recently, the co-founder of Ripple was instrumental in securing investments for a decentralized clearing network based on cryptocurrency, named Yellow. Notable investors in this round included Consensys and Moonrock Capital.

Additionally, Larsen is well-known for having set up numerous security cameras throughout the city of San Francisco.

As a co-creator of Ripple, Larsen obtained 5.19 billion XRP tokens. After XRP experienced a significant surge in value during early 2018, he joined the ranks of the world’s wealthiest individuals. Despite the token falling short of its all-time high, Larsen is still estimated to be worth approximately $3.2 billion, placing him among the affluent figures within the crypto sphere.
