Binance.US Promotes XRP After Regulatory Clarity
The Binance.US’s XRP insight came eight days after Ripple’s famous win against the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). A court ruled that the firm pay $125 million to settle its age-long with Wall Street’s top regulator.
Since the ruling, XRP has gained bullish momentum. The asset rallied over 30% after the court pronouncement on August 7, reaching levels last seen in April. Nonetheless, the rally has faced a massive roadblock.
XRP on Exchanges Dwindles
Moreover, data from Santiment shows a dwindling XRP supply on exchanges, as investors seem to be accumulating the asset for a potential rally—the increased withdrawal further points to a growing bullish sentiment among XRP holders.
Growth in retail accumulation was also seen as holders of 10,000 XRP and below increased significantly. However, whales were seen shaking off their bags after a reduction in accounts with 1 million to 100 million XRP.
XRP traded at $0.5665 at press time, down 2% in the past 24 hours.
