Why XRP is up 1.6% in the last hour
Analysis
XRP rose 1.6% over the last hour as broader market positioning improved following a Bitcoin-driven short squeeze that has supported XRP’s recent upside momentum, per Decrypt. The move also aligns with reports of heavy whale accumulation—about 300 million XRP—highlighted by U.Today, which can add near-term buying pressure.
