Earlier today, I came across a major on-chain move that caught my attention — Ripple just transferred 200 million XRP, worth over $700 million, from a wallet it originally activated in 2020. This transfer was flagged by Whale Alert, which regularly tracks large crypto movements across blockchains.
This isn’t the first big XRP transfer this week — it’s actually the third one involving similar amounts. Naturally, speculation started swirling, with many in the community guessing that whales might be taking profit, or that something major is about to unfold behind the scenes.
But after digging a little deeper, I saw a post from @XRPwallets, a reliable source when it comes to Ripple-related wallet activity. They clarified that this wasn’t a whale cashing out — it was Ripple itself moving funds. The entire 200 million XRP was moved from an old 2020 wallet to a brand new one, both controlled by Ripple. The original wallet is now empty.
This mirrors two earlier transactions Ripple made this week, both involving similarly large XRP amounts. Whether it’s part of an internal restructuring or preparation for a bigger announcement, it’s definitely something I’m watching closely — especially with XRP pulling back from its recent $3.65 peak, a level that nearly matched its 2018 all-time high.","images":["https://d2kdcqywr8ua22.cloudfront.net/uploadfile/article/blog/2025072025/07/23/d83e98eecc853016f5a83c7c48c5ed9c.png"],"tags":[],"tradingPairs":["XRP/USDT"],"quotearticleid":0}
