Will this crucial support finally stop the free fall of XRP when Ripple Whales return?

Tl; Dr.

• The indigenous token of Ripple is in a clear downward spiral and lost more than 20% of its value since its all time in mid -July.
• The active has approached crucial support that could determine the following market movements. At the same time, the most recent behavior of whales refers to recovery.

XRP’s price future

XRP, in addition to the rest of the cryptomarket, has not enjoyed the past 10 days. The active was above $ 3 and even $ 3.1 until last Sunday when the crash of the wider market pushed it to the south within a day to $ 2.82.

The recovery attempt brought it to $ 3.08 on Wednesday, but the bears quickly rose again and did not stand another leg. In fact, there were warnings about an upcoming retracement of up to $ 2.83, which was created on Friday. In addition, XRP went further into a decrease to $ 2.76 earlier today, which became the lowest price level since 3 August.

The price line of $ 2.76 has a special interest in determining the future of XRP. Ali Martinez, who predicted the correction to $ 2,83, believes that this is a crucial level of support that should retain it to remain active in a bull market structure.

Cryptowzrd too touched The price of XRP moves and says that the Activum decision is closed on the daily day and tests the same key support. The analyst noted that XRP should go beyond $ 2.94 and hold there, which would “activate a long time”.

Wrinkle whales are back

These major market participants rode on the XRP golf in July when it actively reached a peak at $ 3.65 with massive accumulations prior to that rally. However, they changed the strategy in the following weeks by loading 470,000,000 tokens in just ten days, as reported on August 20.

Further data on the chain sounds the alarm that wrinkle whales had been quietly left the XRP market for a while, which is generally considered a bearish board. More recent data shared by Martinez, however, show a turn of 180 degrees by these large investors.

In the period of the previous two weeks they collected 340,000,000 XRP tokens, with a value of more than $ 950 million at today’s prices. This is a positive sign for the future price process of XRP, because whales usually buy during price dips and before huge rallies.
