XRP's recent market behavior is somewhat contradictory. On one hand, the price is encountering a new round of selling near $2.16, while on the other hand, whale transactions are unusually active.



According to on-chain data from January 6th, the number of large transactions over USD has surged to 2,802, reaching a three-month high. At first glance, with such intense trading volume from big players, one might think they are making significant moves. But the reality is— the price is actually falling.

What does this divergence indicate? Market observers believe that these whales are making strategic adjustments, possibly accumulating at low levels or quietly offloading. The key is whether they can hold the support zone at $2.05–$2.10.

If the price drops below $2.00, it could be problematic. It would essentially mean that the next downward wave could be even more intense. So, this level is definitely worth watching.

whales moving 2.8k txns but price still bleeding? classic accumulation play or exit trap, hard to tell honestly. that 2.05 support is where the network stress tests itself... if we breach sub-2.00, cascading liquidations incoming fr fr

Whether whales are accumulating at low prices or dumping, honestly who can see through it? Anyway, if it breaks below $2, I'm cutting losses and running away haha

2802 large transactions couldn't stop the price from dropping. Something's not right... Are the whales really accumulating or are they fleeing?

Are whales accumulating at low levels or distributing? Who can tell for sure... Anyway, I'm betting they're bottom-fishing; otherwise, this wave would be a big loss.

Whale trading volume surges while prices continue to fall. This is the real test—whether to accumulate at low levels or quietly offload. Who knows?

Whales' moves this time are really hard to understand. Despite 2802 large transactions, they just couldn't push the price up, it feels like they're playing a psychological game.
