  5. Large XRP Holders Add 65.32M Tokens While Bitcoin Whales Reduce Holdings — this brief

According to Crypto Economy, XRP whales accumulated 65.32 million tokens across four days, representing approximately $72 million at the time of the reported purchases. The buying raised their combined holdings back above 4 billion XRP, extending a shift away from the recent outflows recorded by spot XRP investment products. The report presented a contrasting position in Bitcoin and Ethereum. Bitcoin whales reportedly sold more than 34,000 BTC in the preceding week, an amount valued at roughly $2.6 billion, while large Ethereum holders also reduced their exposure. Those reductions came despite both assets posting gains over the latest 24-hour trading period.

Crypto Economy was the only outlet supplied to cover the activity, so the reported accumulation levels, Bitcoin sales and broader whale positioning remain unconfirmed by independent coverage within this report. The source also contrasted XRP’s whale buying with recent outflows from spot investment products, highlighting that private large-holder demand and product flows moved in opposite directions.

Live data show XRP trading at $1.06, down 0.95% over 24 hours and 18.93% over seven days, with a market capitalization of $67.37 billion. Bitcoin stands at $74,392, up 1.42% over 24 hours but down 7.41% over seven days, while Ethereum is at $2,080.77, up 1.90% daily and down 14.09% weekly. The total crypto market capitalization is $2.54 trillion, with the Fear & Greed Index at 29, indicating a Fear reading. The immediate focus is whether the reported whale accumulation and the divergent large-holder activity persist as weekly losses continue across all three assets.

What this means in rupee

At today's peer-to-peer rate, 1 BTC ≈ ₹7.39M (about $74,328.00), up 1.2% over 24 hours. The rupee itself trades about 5.8% above the official rate on the P2P market, so a Indian buyer's effective cost differs from the headline dollar price.
