【Crypto World】Interesting signals are emerging again on the XRP on-chain data. Recently, whales have been increasing their purchases, while retail investors’ enthusiasm is cooling down — this is clearly visible from the 30-day fund flow data. Interestingly, every time this situation occurs, history repeats itself: in 2021, the price surged to $1.96, and by the end of 2024, it approached $3.29. Whales’ early positioning is always a key factor.

Currently, XRP is hovering around $2.04. According to this logic, the market seems to be brewing something. On-chain data shows retail investors are exiting while large investors are entering. This shift in the balance of power usually doesn’t go unnoticed. Is this a buildup for a big move or just a false alarm? The upcoming market trend should provide the answer.

Whales are secretly positioning again, I’m familiar with this script Retail investors run, big players move in, just waiting for the next wave At the 2.04 level, it feels interesting History repeating itself, I’m most afraid of getting trapped Big money definitely doesn’t lie, follow the flow and enjoy the soup Another fake-out move? Or is it really about to take off Honestly, I can’t tell if this is a real opportunity or just a trick Retail investors have all run away, and I’m still debating whether to buy the dip Large capital movements are too strange, I’m increasingly unable to understand XRP

Retail investors run away, big players enter the market. We've seen this script many times before, but I still get nervous every time. The 2.04 level is indeed interesting; according to data statistics, this is just the night before history repeats itself.
