🗞️ XRP whale outflows hit a 5-year low
Since its peak at around $3.3, XRP has seen a clear shift in whale outflow dynamics.
In February 2025, at the top of the cycle, whale outflows on Binance (90-dma) reached $3.5 billion. It was a massive accumulation, marked by several daily spikes well above $10 billion.
Since then, the trend has completely reversed. XRP is attracting less and less attention from whales, who are probably waiting for a better price to step back in. As a result, whale outflows on Binance (90-dma) have just dropped to their lowest level in 5 years.
With a 90-day average of $49.7M, they are back to their October 2021 level, which marked the top of the previous Bitcoin cycle.
ripple:native has shown notable resilience throughout this bear market, which likely prevented whales from finding a price attractive enough to accumulate heavily, as they did in 2022 and 2023.
From a long-term perspective, this suggests XRP could lack buying volume without whale support. That said, it's not a hard rule, sometimes the trend reverses precisely when volumes and interest collapse.
