XRP is witnessing a fresh wave of whale activity as large holders return to the market with significant accumulation. This sudden shift is raising expectations of a potential price surge, echoing the pattern seen during the last major rally.
According to crypto analyst Jungle Inc (@jungleincxrp), XRP’s price movements have repeatedly mirrored whale flow trends over the past year. Such massive trades have always come before critical market movements, further supporting their impact on the performance of XRP.
Whale flows reported in August 2024 were rather negative, oscillating around -150 million XRP. At the time, investor sentiment was diminishing, and XRP was languishing at around the cusp of a half-dollar with no signs of strength.

However, things began to change by September and October as whale inflows rose steadily, signaling early signs of renewed interest among major market players.
The accretion grew between November and December 2024, with the climax approaching almost +250 million XRP. Consequently, the price of XRP had gone up to over 3 USD at the end of the year.
On 2 January 2025, the price of XRP reached $3.39, the highest it had been in several years. However, a sudden decrease in whale activity followed this peak, indicating a distribution stage.
Prices pulled back from January to April as whale flows returned to negative. Subsequently, XRP fell into a consolidation area between $2 and $2.5, with outflow continuing.
Fresh Whale Inflows Signal Possible XRP Breakout
In May and June 2025, on-chain data revealed a major comeback by whales. Accumulation jumped again, with inflows surpassing +300 million XRP, an even stronger signal than the last cycle.
This enhanced purchasing trend will be accompanied by XRP stability in the market at around the 2-dollar mark. Jungle Inc. pointed out that the present accumulation trend is highly similar to the accumulation preceding the previous XRP rally.
Traders and investors are monitoring the market closely to see if a breakout is possible because inflows have been observed to be increasing among whales. Historical data indicate that the activity of the large holders usually involves steep price changes.
With whale accumulation hitting record highs again, XRP appears poised for another significant surge. The growing confidence among large investors may be setting the stage for the next major move.
