As an analyst with over two decades of experience in the digital currency market, I find the recent surge in XRP whale activity on Binance intriguing. The 6-month high in exchange flow to Binance, as evidenced by CryptoQuant’s data, suggests that large XRP holders are actively engaging with this platform.
In recent times, the digital currency market has seen varying opinions, leading to significant movements. Notably, large XRP investors (or ‘whales’) have been actively transferring their holdings to Binance Exchange, according to data from CryptoQuant. This influx of XRP by whales reached a 6-month peak. This surge in activity takes place as the price of XRP temporarily dipped below $2, a significant drop in the market.
XRP Whales and Binance Selloff Outlook
According to recent reports from CryptoQuant, over the last month, whales have transferred approximately 2.66 billion XRP to Binance, marking the highest level since April 2024. Analyst J.A. Maartun points out this on-chain activity suggests that significant XRP holders are actively engaging with Binance.

As a crypto investor, I’ve noticed an interesting pattern based on the chart from CryptoQuant. Since April 2022, there have been three significant periods where whales have moved large amounts of XRP to Binance. Firstly, around November 2022, we saw a surge as whale buyers transferred approximately 2.4 billion XRP to the platform. Then, in April 2024, this figure increased notably to 2.8 billion XRP. Currently, we’re seeing a sustained interest with around 2.6 billion XRP still on Binance, indicating that these whales continue to hold and potentially trade the coin.
There are several interpretations regarding the transfer of large amounts of XRP to Binance. As per J.A. Maartun’s assessment, this pattern usually indicates a shift in activity. It might be an indication of sell-off signals since top cryptocurrency trading platforms have strong liquidity to handle withdrawal requests smoothly.
Through Ripple‘s escrow mechanism, the supply and demand of XRP in the market are effectively regulated, which helps maintain a stable price for the coin.
Boosting the Coin With RLUSD Stablecoin
Currently, one unit of XRP is being traded at approximately $2.25. In the last day, its value has decreased by 3.3%. Despite dropping as low as $1.912 within that period, this recent uptick in price is seen as a promising sign for the coin.
After receiving approval for their RLUSD stablecoin from the New York Department of Financial Services (NYDFS), Ripple Labs has now initiated its recovery phase. This license allows the stablecoin to be launched on the partner platforms it had previously announced.
In the wider XRP network, the RLUSD stablecoin could potentially contribute to the continued increase in the value of XRP coins.
