Ripple’s (XRP) selling pressure on Binance appears to be easing as large holders reduce transfers to the exchange, according to a new analysis from CryptoQuant.

Binance remains one of the largest liquidity hubs for XRP, which makes whale transfers to the exchange an important indicator of potential selling activity. Large deposits by major investors can increase short-term supply, but current data shows both Whale Flow and Whale Transactions standing at 417, which means that large holders are not actively moving significant amounts of XRP to Binance.

Recovery Still On Hold

CryptoQuant said XRP is currently trading at $1.12, below the McGinley Dynamic indicator, which lies between $1.15 and $1.16. The McGinley Dynamic is an adaptive moving average that responds more quickly to changing market conditions than traditional moving averages and is widely used to identify dynamic support and resistance levels. Prices trading below the indicator are generally considered a sign of weak momentum.

Several spikes in whale transfers to Binance were recorded in early June. During the same period, XRP fell sharply from the $1.30-$1.50 range and has yet to regain the McGinley Dynamic level. However, the decline in whale inflows in recent weeks suggests that selling pressure has moderated.

Despite the improvement in whale activity, CryptoQuant said the market outlook remains mixed. The McGinley Dynamic continues to point to a bearish short-term trend, while Whale Flow data remains neutral to positive. The firm explained that XRP needs to reclaim the McGinley Dynamic to support a stronger recovery.

If the crypto asset remains below the indicator and large inflows to Binance increase again, another decline could follow. But downside risks may remain limited as long as the Whale Transaction support zone near $1.08 continues to hold.

Bold Targets

Several market analysts remain divided on XRP’s next move. Some traders believe a break above the $1.18-$1.30 range could trigger a rally, while a move below $1.08 may invalidate the bullish setup.

More optimistic forecasts have projected targets as high as $8 or even $17, although such gains would require a massive increase in the crypto asset’s market value at a time when the network itself appears to be struggling due to low user engagement.

Institutional demand for XRP has remained relatively strong despite weakness across the broader crypto ETF market. Over the past week, XRP-focused exchange-traded funds attracted more than $10.6 million in inflows. On the other hand, US-based spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded outflows of $227 million, while Ethereum funds lost more than $10 million during the same period.
