Bitwise Filing Signals Bullish Momentum for Ripple
Recently, technical data platform Santiment took to X to share how the Bitwise Filing has sparked a flurry of bullish activities in the ripple realm. For instance, the platform outlined how Bitwise’s filing has hyped up XRP, a center of positive whale activity.
Whale Activity and Social Hype Metrics
The platform stated that XRP has become a nucleus of surging on-chain activity after its ETF announcement went viral within the Web3 domain. Per Santiment, XRP’s whale activity and social hype metrics have topped the charts recently.
“Adding to the bullish signs, there were 145 whale transactions exceeding $1 million in value on October 1, a notable 6-month high. Whale activity often indicates that larger investors are either accumulating or positioning for a strategic move, suggesting that these players see value in XRP at its current price. Such whale transactions frequently precede market moves and can be a strong signal for smaller investors looking for cues on market direction.”
New Milestone In Transactions
The portal further shared how the token has also forged a new milestone by surpassing $2.30 billion in transactions, indicative of a possible bullish price momentum and rally on cards to spark very soon.
“Following Bitwise’s announcement, on-chain data has revealed a spike in XRP transaction volume, reaching an 8-month high of $2.39 billion shortly after the filings. This surge in volume indicates increased activity, likely tied to both traders’ reactions to the news and institutional accumulation. With such high volumes, the market sentiment can be volatile, and traders need to be cautious of potential short-term corrections.”
