In the grand theater of cryptocurrency, where fortunes are made and lost with the flick of a digital switch, the vigilant eyes of Whale Alert have caught a spectacle most astonishing! Earlier today, a colossal transaction, a veritable tidal wave of XRP, surged forth, carrying with it a staggering sum of tens of millions of dollars. And where did this bounty land? Why, none other than the illustrious Coinbase, the largest crypto exchange in the land of the free!

Ah, but this was not merely a one-off event; nay, it was the second act in a week filled with crypto drama!

29,532,534 XRP moved to Coinbase

With a flourish, Whale Alert unveiled the details: a grand total of 29,532,534 XRP tokens, valued at a jaw-dropping $63,810,782 at the moment of transfer, were unceremoniously dumped into the coffers of Coinbase. The mysterious hand behind this transaction? An anonymous digital wallet, of course! Because who doesn’t love a good mystery? 🕵️‍♂️

As the XRP aficionados gathered in the comments, many speculated that this elusive whale was preparing for a grand sale, perhaps dreaming of riches beyond imagination. But lo and behold! The wise sages at Bithomp, the XRP-focused oracle, revealed that this transfer was, in fact, orchestrated by Coinbase itself, as it shuffled its XRP holdings like a deck of cards in a high-stakes poker game.

And just a day prior, Whale Alert had witnessed an even more astonishing feat: a transfer of nearly double that amount—70,000,000 XRP, worth a staggering $150,361,090! This massive chunk of crypto was exchanged between two wallets linked to Ripple, likely a part of the ODL transfer on the Ripple Payments system, a dance of digital currency that pirouettes across the vast expanse of RippleNet.
