Twitter bot Whale Alert that tracks large movements of cryptocurrencies has detected two substantial amounts of XRP moved by leading crypto exchanges in the past twenty hours.
74 million XRP leaves Coinbase and Bittrex
As per the data posted by Whale Alert on Twitter recently, in the past 20 hours, 74 million XRP has been transacted by the San-Francisco-located Coinbase and Seattle-based Bittrex crypto trading companies.
Coinbase shifted 62 million XRP internally. Bittrex moved 12 million XRP to the Upbit exchange.
At the current XRP price of $1.62, this is a fiat equivalent of $118,880,382.
Curiously, these trading platforms are among those that shut down XRP trading in winter this year after the US regulatory agency SEC initiated a lawsuit against blockchain behemoth Ripple.
