Excellent analysis of the current landscape around XRP, and indeed there are indicators that raise questions:
Quick analysis of the situation:
$126 million moved from Bitstamp: often indicates a transfer from an exchange to a cold wallet, which is a 'whales' behavior, and may mean accumulation rather than selling.
Unlocking by Ripple (1 billion XRP): a usual monthly event, but the timing is very sensitive, especially with declining reserves at Binance.
Declining Binance reserves: may indicate investors withdrawing XRP to private wallets, and is often a positive sign (long-term storage).
ETF rumors + potential role in global reserves: if these rumors materialize, they could trigger a violent upward wave.
My personal expectation for the price of XRP by the end of May 2025:
Most likely scenario:
$2–$3
Why?
There is clear momentum and smart accumulation by the whales.
The news has not peaked yet (ETF is just rumors for now).
The market is still in a cautious phase, but it could turn into strong upward movement if confirmations are issued.
Your opinion matters now!

🚨 Whale movements in XRP - is it accumulation or an impending explosion? 🚨
🔑 Current indicators:
▫️ $126 million in XRP withdrawn from Bitstamp
▫️ Ripple unlocks 1 billion XRP
▫️ Binance reserves drop to only 2.72 billion XRP
▫️ Rumors about an XRP trading fund + increasing global interest
Are these signs of quiet accumulation or preparation for an explosion?
