XRP has enjoyed a rally beyond the $3.2 mark as on-chain data shows the cryptocurrency is among the altcoins witnessing the largest whale activity spikes.

XRP Whale Transaction Count Has Exploded Recently

In a new post on X, the on-chain analytics firm Santiment has shared the list of altcoins that have seen the largest jumps in Whale Transaction Count during the past week. The “Whale Transaction Count” here refers to an indicator that keeps track of the total amount of transfers occurring on a given network that are carrying a value of more than $100,000.

Only the whale entities are usually capable of moving such large amounts with single transactions, so the metric is assumed to reflect the level of activity in which these humongous investors are participating. When the Whale Transaction Count has a high value, it means the whales are making a large number of moves on the blockchain. Such a trend implies these key holders have a notable interest in trading the asset.

On the other hand, the indicator being low suggests that large investors may not be paying much attention to the cryptocurrency as their transactions remain at a low level.

Now, here is the table posted by the analytics firm that shows the ranking of the altcoins (with a market cap greater than $500 million) in terms of the percentage increase in the Whale Transaction Count over the past week:

As is visible above, there have been seven cryptocurrencies that have witnessed a Whale Transaction Count spike of at least 100% in this period. The altcoin that most stands out on the list, however, is actually in the eighth spot: XRP (XRP).

The asset has witnessed around an 81% increase in whale activity during the last seven days, which, while lesser than the others, is still more impressive simply because of the fact that the coin has a much more massive market cap.

XRP would already have many whales active on the blockchain, so to still register a growth of this degree would imply an extraordinary rise in transactions in pure numbers.

Generally, a high Whale Transaction Count is something that can lead to volatility in an asset’s price. The emerging price action can be in either direction, as the indicator only tracks the number of transfers and contains no information about whether the whales are making the moves for buying or selling purposes.

In XRP’s case, though, it would appear that these transactions have been for buying indeed, as its price has seen an impressive rally of almost 41% inside the window.

Interestingly, the altcoin that has topped the list isn’t one with a variable price, but rather a stablecoin: Dai on the BNB blockchain. “For stablecoins, increased activity is typically a good sign that large levels of funds are being prepared to be swapped for altcoins that are common with that stablecoin’s trading pair,” notes Santiment.

XRP Price

At the time of writing, XRP is trading around $3.2, down 2% over the last 24 hours.

Keshav is currently a senior writer at NewsBTC and has been attached to the website since June 14, 2021.

Keshav has been writing for many years, first as a hobbyist and later as a freelancer. He has experience working in a variety of niches, even fiction at one point, but the cryptocurrency industry has been the longest he has been attached to.

In terms of official educational qualifications, Keshav holds a bachelor’s degree in Physics from one of the premier institutes of India, the University of Delhi (DU). He started the degree with an aim of eventually making a career in Physics, but the onset of COVID led to a shift in plans. The virus meant that the college classes had to be delivered in the online-mode and with it came free time for him to explore other passions.

Initially only seeking to make some beer money, Keshav unexpectedly landed clients offering real projects, after which there was no looking back. Writing was something he had always enjoyed and to be able to do it for a living was like a dream come true.

Keshav completed his Physics degree in 2022 and has been focusing on his writing career since, but that doesn’t mean his passion for Physics has ended. He eventually plans to re-enter university to obtain a masters degree in the same field, but perhaps only to satiate his own interest rather than for using it as a means to find employment..

Keshav has found blockchain and its concepts fascinating ever since he started going down the rabbit-hole back in 2020. On-chain analysis in particular has been something he likes to research more about, which is why his NewsBTC pieces tend to involve it in some form.

Being of the science background, Keshav likes if concepts are clear and consistent, so he generally explains the indicators he talks about in a bit of detail so that the readers can perhaps come out having understood and learnt something new.

As for hobbies, Keshav is super into football, anime, and videogames. He enjoys football not only as a watcher, but also as a player. For games, Keshav generally tends towards enjoying singleplayer adventures, with EA FC (formerly FIFA) being the only online game he is active in. Though, perhaps due to being ultra-focused on the game, he is today a semi-pro on the EA FC scene, regularly participating in tournaments and sometimes even taking back prize money.

Because of his enthusiasm for anime and games, he also self-learned Japanese along the way to consume some of the untranslated gems out there. The skill didn’t merely remain as just a hobby, either, as he put it to productive use during his exploration for small-time gigs at the start of COVID, fulfilling a couple of Japanese-to-English translation jobs.

Keshav is also big into fitness, with agility and acceleration-related workouts making a big part of his program due to the relevance they have in football. On top of that, he also has a more traditional strength based program for the gym, which he does to maintain an overall fitness level of his body.
