- Over 5 Billion XRP Exited Exchanges in 30 Days — this brief
Over the past 30 days, a substantial amount of 
XRP has been moved from centralized exchanges, with data from CryptoQuant indicating that 5.3 billion XRP, currently worth around $7 billion, have been withdrawn.
This development comes at a time when the broader cryptocurrency market is experiencing a downturn, with 
Bitcoin down 1.19% in the last 24 hours and the overall market sentiment remaining neutral, as indicated by the Fear & Greed index at 51.
The Crypto Basic is the only outlet reporting this specific data, but the figures from CryptoQuant provide a clear picture of the significant outflow of XRP from exchanges.
The movement of such a large amount of XRP could suggest that holders are opting to store their tokens in private wallets rather than keeping them on exchanges, possibly indicating a shift towards long-term holding or a reduction in active trading.
Despite the large outflow, XRP's market cap remains robust at $81.39 billion, though the token's price has seen a slight decline of 1.47% in the past 24 hours, currently trading at $1.29.
Since this brief published about 13 hours ago, XRP (XRP) has moved from $1.29 to $1.29 — +0.00%.
