XRP whales are bucking the trend with noticeable moves amidst a wider backdrop of uninspiring price movements for the cryptocurrency. A recent surge in XRP acquisitions has caught the crypto community’s attention, as large-scale investors acquired $228 million worth of the digital asset in a few days. Interestingly, this noticeable spike in buying comes on the heels of the launch of the Grayscale XRP Trust and an optimistic price prediction that sees XRP potentially hitting $5 in the next six to ten months.

Whale Accumulation Increases Amidst Bullish Predictions

This exciting movement by XRP whales was revealed through the crypto’s supply distribution on the social media platform X by Ali Martinez. According to the Santiment chart shared by the crypto analyst, wallets holding 10 million to 100 million XRP tokens recently pushed their total balance to a September peak of 7.17 billion XRP after adding about $288 million worth of XRP tokens in ten days.

Based on the average price of the altcoin during this period, this equates to the acquisition of approximately 390 million tokens by this group of large holders, representing about 6.9% of the total circulating supply moving into the hands of a few key players.

Although the total balance of the whales had dropped to about 7.11 billion XRP at the time of Martinez’s post, recent developments point to continued accumulation in the coming days. One of these developments is the recent launch of the Grayscale XRP Trust, which seems to be already attracting institutional investors to the token.

However, despite this uptick in whale activity, XRP has not mirrored the price jumps in other major cryptocurrencies following a favorable U.S. Federal Reserve decision. The Federal Reserve’s 0.5% interest rate cut has fueled a broader inflow into the cryptocurrency market, propelling assets like Bitcoin and Ethereum to notable gains. In contrast, the price has struggled to break above the $0.60 mark, even with heightened whale activity.

Crypto analyst Ash Crypto predicted that the altcoin could reach $5 in the next six to ten months. This forecast aligns with a wider backdrop of optimism within the crypto space, with multiple assets experiencing upward momentum as the effects of the Federal Reserve’s policy changes continue to ripple through markets.

XRP $5 Prediction

According to a recent outlook by Ash Crypto, XRP is on target to perform a 300% to 740% increase in the current market cycle. Such a rally puts the altcoin at a price target between $3 and $5. Notably, the crypto analyst’s outlook isn’t based on a technical analysis but on  fundamentals and a predicted rally by the general crypto market. As such, Ash Crypto’s outlook also forecasts Bitcoin trading between $150,000 and $250,000 and Ethereum trading between $10,000 and $15,000 in the next six to ten months.

At the time of writing, XRP is trading at $0.5828.
