Whales Move Millions of XRP Tokens, a Sell-off Incoming?

Hours later, another mysterious whale moved 20 million XRP worth $10 million from an unknown wallet address to the cryptocurrency exchange Bitstamp. The rich list is moving the token after it touched a new yearly high of $0.55 this month. The developments indicate that the whales could initiate a sell-off and indulge in profit bookings as it generated decent returns.

A sell-off of such magnitude may cause a shift in XRP’s price and pull it below the $0.49 mark. There is a possibility of a correction if the whales jump ship in the coming days.
