Large withdrawals from exchanges often indicate accumulation by whales, reducing selling pressure.Moving XRP to a private wallet may indicate long-term holding rather than immediate liquidation, which is also a potential bullish signal. Sometimes, such large transactions hint at institutional players making strategic moves or just mere funds' reshuffling.XRP, the third largest cryptocurrency by market valuation, has traded flat between $2.30 and $2.83 recently, despite excitement from the Coinbase SEC case dismissal announcement and the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission acknowledging a slew of XRP ETF filings.Despite this, the number of whale and shark wallets continuously increases, according to Santiment.

At the time of writing, XRP was up 0.10% in the last 24 hours to $2.57, below the daily moving average of 50 at $2.72.XRP has been consolidating sideways since Feb. 3, with the general trend leaning bullish. However, stays in limbo until the price breaks above $2.83 or falls below $2.30. The flat RSI slightly below the midpoint suggests that XRP may continue within the symmetrical triangle for some time. The next trending move is expected to begin with a break above or below the triangle.According to crypto analyst Ali, a breakout from the triangle could put XRP on course for a 14% price move. XRP might reach $3.40, while a drop below the support line could lower the price to $1.90.Currently, liquidity remains at both demand and supply levels for XRP, implying that a break of these levels might most likely determine XRP's ultimate direction. With the SEC’s acknowledgment of more XRP ETF applications, the altcoin's prospects for growth in 2025 are rising.
