XRP is facing potential price pressure as 12 large wallets are actively distributing their holdings, according to U.Today. This distribution has resulted in a 50 million token influx into cryptocurrency exchanges.
The influx of tokens to exchanges is significant because it increases the available supply of XRP on the market, which could lead to increased selling pressure. This development puts the $1 support level, which held in August, at immediate risk.
Currently, XRP is trading at $1.3, showing a 1.08% increase over the past 24 hours and a 2.11% increase over the past week. Despite this short-term growth, the distribution of tokens by large holders could influence the longer-term price trajectory.
The broader cryptocurrency market remains relatively flat, with a total market cap of $2.77 trillion. 
Bitcoin, the leading cryptocurrency, is up 0.07% in the last 24 hours, and the overall market sentiment, as measured by the Fear & Greed Index, is at 54, indicating a neutral stance.
The distribution of XRP tokens by large holders is a development that investors should monitor closely. If the trend continues, it could lead to further price volatility and test the $1 support level.
Since this brief published about 5 hours ago, XRP (XRP) has moved from $1.30 to $1.30 — +0.00%.
