Why XRP is down 2.9% today
Analysis
XRP fell 2.9% over the past 24 hours amid volatility even as large holders accumulated, with U.Today reporting whales scooped up 71 million XRP—suggesting buying interest wasn’t enough to offset broader selling pressure in the near term. At the same time, attention on ecosystem and market-structure developments, including an incoming XRPL update (U.Today) and continued activity in XRP derivatives with CME futures posting $63B in volume over the past year (CryptoPotato), did not translate into immediate upside momentum.
