Whether it is a bull trap as some crypto pundits claim or it is just an organic pump after a prolonged winter season, several whales and the largest cryptocurrency exchange by 24-hour volume, Binance, shook the XRP market via the movements of millions of the utility token after XRP price retested a high of $0.4 on Monday.

According to the popular blockchain analytics and crypto transactions tracking platform, Whale Alert, a total of 429,311,362 XRP has been shifted in the last 24 hours. This movement was recorded after XRP saw a long green candle today which peaked at $0.4064. 

Among the entities that contributed to this large circulation of XRP is the Binance exchange. The leading blockchain ecosystem and digital assets exchange facilitated the shifting of a whopping 94,311,362 XRP in one transaction worth $37,988,531 from an unknown user wallet to an external wallet. 

But in the first and largest XRP movement in the series, Whale Alert reported a transfer of 209 million XRP from an unknown wallet to another unknown wallet. This transaction was worth $80,989,827 at the time of execution.
