Mystery Whale Snaps Up $35M in XRP in Under an Hour Across Coinbase, Kraken, and Bitstamp
An unknown entity accumulated over $35 million in $XRP in less than an hour, using a high-precision algorithmic execution strategy.The operation was fragmented into 156 identical purchases of 10,000 $XRP each, strategically distributed across Coinbase, Kraken, and Bitstamp exchanges.Despite the strong buying pressure, the $XRP price remained stable at $1.33, recording a modest 1.4% gain for the day. Mystery whales continue to shake the crypto market.This Friday, a mystery whale made a massive $XRP purchase, executing a series of orders across major exchanges. The technical maneuver, detected by market analysts, allowed the buyer to conceal a significant capital entry without drastically altering immediate liquidity. Due to this action, buying volume exploded around 11:00 UTC, reversing a flat trend in the CVD (Cumulative Volume Delta). The activity was led by Coinbase with $23.4 million, while Kraken and Bitstampserved as secondary nodes to distribute the buying pressure. Algorithmic strategy and market behavior Analyst Dom (@traderview2) highlighted that using bots to fractionate an order of such magnitude is uncommon in daily trading. This tactic prevented the price from exploding before the total accumulation of the asset was complete. Some entity just rapidly accumulated $35M+ $XRP in less than an hour and it seems like they needed it quick It
Bitcoin crashes below $70,000 on Bitstamp
Bitcoins price sell-off continued Thursday, with prices breaking below the widely-tracked $70,000 level on the OG crypto exchange Bitstamp. $BTCs dollar-denominated price slipped to $69,101 during the Asian trading hours, trading a discount to prices on other exchanges, including Coinbase, where $BTC hit a low of $70,002. The discount on Bitstamp likely stemmed from stronger selling pressure on the Robinhood-owned platform. The global average price, tracked by CoinDesk, peaked above $126,000 in early October and has been in a downtrend since then. Some analysts expect further sell-off at least to $60,000, where prices may eventually bottom out. $BTCs price on Bitstamp. (Bitstamp)
