📉 THE CO-FOUNDER SENT TO EXCHANGES. THE PRICE FELL.

Between July 17 and 24, Chris Larsen, co-founder of Ripple, transferred 50 million of $XRP , equivalent to $175 million, from his personal wallet.

Of these, about $140 million were sent to centralized exchanges, as indicated by on-chain data verified by analysts (Coindesk, 07/25/2025). while the coin was nearing $3.60, the highest rise in years.

📉 Result?

Shortly after, the price dropped significantly, XRP fell from $3.60 to ~$3.10, a correction of ~13%.

.

🚫 No one confirmed that he sold the tokens. But…:

👉 When the co-founder, one of the OWNERS of the project moves/sends that amount to exchanges, it is not exactly a sign of HODL.

.

📊 The market gave us a window.

The co-founder moved. The price fell.

And us? Still standing still?

.

💡I Sold only 10%, close to the peak.

And maybe you, like me, are waiting for "the next peak"… as if this one wasn't already it.

.

🔍 It's not about leaving the project (in the specific case of XRP within my scenario: I WILL NEVER leave 100% of the project).

It's about NOT IGNORING the signals.

Time to act strategically.

Before the market decides for us.

.

🔍 Conclusion:

Proportionally, 50 million XRP don't even represent a relevant fraction of the total supply or even of Larsen/co-founder's personal reserve, which still exceeds 2 billion units of XRP.

Perhaps it wasn't this movement that caused the price drop, and we don't really know if there was an actual sale.

BUT… when the co-founder himself sends millions to exchanges at the peak, the market interprets it as a WARNING.

And sometimes, that's all it takes to provoke the correction.
