Data from the 7-day moving average of the XRP Whale vs Retail Spread across all centralized exchanges rose from 26% on May 6 to 50.9% on June 29. This is an increase of 24.9 percentage points.<\/p>\n<p>According to CryptoQuant, the latest trend indicates that transfers involving more than 100,000 XRP are making up a much larger share of exchange outflows compared to smaller retail-sized transactions than they did in early May.<\/p>\n<h2>Whale Presence Outside Binance<\/h2>\n<p>The same cannot be said for Binance. CryptoQuant found that the exchange\u2019s Whale vs Retail Spread dropped from 62% on June 11 to 44.6% on June 29, a decline of 17.4 percentage points. As a result, Binance\u2019s reading now stands 6.3 percentage points below the broader centralized exchange average of 50.9%.<\/p>\n<p>The Whale vs Retail Spread measures the difference between XRP outflow volumes generated by transfers above 100,000 XRP and those involving 100,000 XRP or less. Higher readings indicate that whale-sized transactions account for a larger share of exchange outflows than retail transfers.<\/p>\n<p>The analysis <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoquant.com\/insights\/quicktake\/6a421bb3718c636ace57b259-XRP-Whale-Retail-Gap-Splits-Across-Exchanges-All-CEX-Spread-Surges-From-26-to-50\">revealed<\/a> that the growing gap between Binance and the wider exchange market essentially suggests that large XRP transfers are becoming less concentrated on Binance and increasingly distributed across other trading platforms.<\/p>\n<h2>Price Struggles<\/h2>\n<p>XRP spent most of June under pressure after falling from above $1.30 at the start of the month to around $1.05 at the time of writing. Although the crypto asset saw a brief rebound in mid-June, the recovery quickly faded as sellers regained control and pushed prices lower again.<\/p>\n<p>It even <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/everyone-expects-xrp-to-crash-further-is-ripple-about-to-surprise-the-market\/\">slipped<\/a> behind BNB and USDC in market capitalization. With XRP currently testing the crucial $1.06 support previously identified by Ali Martinez, the asset is now exposed to lower support areas at $0.80, $0.62, and $0.51.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Glassnode reported that XRP investors are realizing more losses than profits. Despite the weakness, some analysts remain optimistic. EGRAG CRYPTO, for one, <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/xrp-could-explode-265-but-this-one-price-zone-is-holding-it-back\/\">believes<\/a> that if XRP follows historical price patterns linked to its \u201cCentral Line,\u201d the asset could eventually reach between $5.70 and $8, based on gains seen during previous market cycles.<\/p>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/xrp-whales-are-moving-on-and-binance-is-no-longer-their-top-choice\/\">XRP Whales Are Moving On, and Binance Is No Longer Their Top Choice<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptopotato.com\/\">CryptoPotato<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Large XRP transfers are becoming more prominent across centralized exchanges overall, while their activity on Binance has declined.
