Why XRP is down 1.4% in the last hour

Analysis

XRP slipped 1.4% over the past hour as traders digested reports highlighting heavy whale concentration—CryptoPotato noted that whales control nearly 70% of XRP supply, a dynamic that can amplify short-term selling pressure when large holders rebalance. The move also comes amid broader market sensitivity to exchange reliability after CryptoPotato’s recap referenced Binance-related outage updates, which can weigh on near-term sentiment and liquidity.
