XRP’s recent price activity has drawn increasing attention. The cryptocurrency has remained confined to a narrow range over the past week, with no major directional shift. However, emerging signals from technical indicators and whale behavior suggest that a more decisive move may soon unfold. Signs of Accumulation as Volatility Declines Despite muted price action, underlying activity in the XRP ecosystem has intensified. Whales have been steadily increasing their holdings over the past month. Ali Martinez (@ali_charts), a well-known analyst in the crypto space, recently revealed that whales bought 900 million XRP over the past month.

This accumulation trend is unfolding at a time when XRP is trading at $2.18, down 0.74% over the past 24 hours. The asset’s daily volume has also seen a notable 30.54% decline, with only $1.49 billion tokens traded in the past 24 hours. The consolidation has also helped XRP escape a death cross , and the current market position points to a phase of reduced volatility, often a precursor to more pronounced price action.

This compression of the bands’ signals decreased volatility and a potential buildup toward a breakout. If XRP moves toward the upper band near $2.3 and closes above it with sustained momentum, it could create the conditions for a breakout from the current range. Market observers are closely watching this price level as the next significant test. Questions from Ripple’s Latest Escrow Release The unusual change in Ripple’s escrow activity complicates the short-term outlook. The company, which routinely releases 1 billion XRP on the first day of each month, made its most recent escrow release outside the usual schedule. The company initially locked 700 million tokens and waited almost 24 hours before unlocking 1 billion XRP. The timing of the release has raised speculation about Ripple’s internal decision-making and what might signal for XRP’s circulating supply and liquidity in the coming weeks. However, no official explanation has been provided. While the departure from routine has become a topic of interest among analysts, more experts are focused on an impending price surge. Analysts believe a move beyond $2.30 could redefine XRP’s short-term trend and set the stage for a move toward $5.85 .
