Analysis
XRP rose 15.3% over the past 24 hours as broader market positioning and liquidations boosted risk assets, with Decrypt attributing XRP’s strength to a Bitcoin-driven short squeeze that helped lift major alts. Separately, U.Today reported heavy whale accumulation—around 300 million XRP scooped up—supporting the rally with clear spot-demand signals.
