Maartunn (@JA_Maartun), a prominent market analyst, has highlighted recent selling activity among XRP’s largest holders. Sharing a chart of whale flows, he remarked that “XRP Whales are selling heavily,” pointing to what he views as a clear distribution supported by on-chain data. The chart he shared shows the moving average of whale flows, splitting into positive inflows and negative outflows. Over the past several months, the red bars indicating negative whale flows have grown significantly, reflecting net selling from high-value wallets. This activity coincides with a notable rise and subsequent cooling in XRP’s price, signaling that whales may be offloading their holdings during periods of strength, with some also trying to short the asset’s price recently . XRP Whales are selling heavily It's clear distribution. On-chain data tells the story.

Periods of accumulation, marked by green bars, were often followed by upward price movements; however, the most recent data points toward sustained selling. In early 2025, XRP’s price spiked considerably, with whale inflows appearing briefly in the green. That phase was quickly overtaken by a sharp and extended period of outflows, aligning with the analyst’s view of heavy selling. The consistency of these negative flows suggests that large holders were systematically reducing their exposure rather than engaging in short-term trading. The asset experienced a notable shift in May and June, when whales resumed their accumulation ; however, the phase did not last long.

These sell-offs likely contributed to XRP’s loss of crucial support in early August . Implications for XRP’s Market Structure XRP has long been influenced by the behavior of its largest wallets, given the concentration of supply among major holders. Heavy distribution raises questions about the sustainability of recent price levels. When whales move in unison, their actions often set the tone for broader market participants, particularly retail investors who may follow the market’s momentum. Whales have a dominant position in the XRP market . While demand-side factors, such as institutional adoption and regulatory clarity, play a role, supply-side actions from whales can create downward pressure. Sustained outflows may weigh on price recovery efforts unless matched by new inflows from buyers outside this group of whales.
