XRP Eyes Breakout As Whales Accumulate And Network Activity Surges

XRP is holding strong above the $1.13 price mark, catching the attention of traders who have watched this area as a major resistance zone. Market analyst Dark Defender points out that staying above this level keeps the door open for a move toward $1.22. Technical charts are also flashing a golden cross, which often signals improving medium term momentum when paired with a confirmed breakout.

On chain data shows a big shift in how large investors are behaving. Whale selling pressure has dropped to its lowest point since 2025, with fewer tokens moving to exchanges. Instead of selling off their holdings, big wallets are actively accumulating XRP, which takes immediate selling pressure off the open market.

At the same time, the XRP Ledger is seeing a major jump in real usage. Daily payments on the network recently crossed 500,000 transactions, marking some of the strongest activity in months. Traders will want to watch whether XRP can maintain its support above $1.13 and build enough momentum to challenge the next resistance target.
