XRP rose to $1.31 while large wallets accumulated holdings, although exchange data pointed to mixed conditions. XRP (XRP) is trading at $1.28, down 2.3% since this brief published. This is an original TLT brief based on reporting by Crypto.news, with live market data added, as of Thu, 05 Nov 2026 15:00:04 UTC.

Why it matters

The combination of higher whale holdings and a rising XRP price could signal renewed large-account accumulation, while the divergence in exchange data leaves the underlying demand picture less certain.

Key takeaways
  • XRP trades at $1.31, up 2.24% over 24 hours
  • Large-wallet holdings increased, according to Crypto.news
  • Exchange data diverged, making the buying signal less definitive
  • Broader crypto sentiment was neutral as the market moved higher

XRP rose 2.24% over 24 hours to trade at $1.31, putting the token close to the upper end of its recent range and within reach of the $1.32 level highlighted by Crypto.news. The asset was also 1.35% higher over seven days, while its market capitalization reached $82.85 billion. Large-wallet holdings increased during the move, according to Crypto.news. That accumulation was the central feature of the report, although no specific wallet balance or dollar value was provided in the supplied coverage. The publication also said exchange data diverged, adding an important qualification to the otherwise positive activity signal. Crypto.news noted that traders were watching resistance between $1.35 and $1.40, with support around $1.25. These levels frame the immediate market structure: a move above the identified resistance area would represent a further advance, while a decline toward support would test how firmly the recent gains are holding. The broader crypto market was broadly higher, with total capitalization standing at $2.73 trillion. Bitcoin gained 1.86% over 24 hours, and the Fear & Greed index registered 50, corresponding to a neutral reading. Against that backdrop, XRP’s short-term gain was broader than a purely token-specific move, but its simultaneous increase in large-wallet holdings was the development that distinguished the report.
