XRP Whale Transfers off Binance Reach Highest Level in 7 Months
cryptocurrency.com.tr reports that XRP whale withdrawals from Binance have surged to a seven-month high, raising questions about available trading supply. The outlet notes that persistent transfers away from the platform could reduce tokens readily available for sale, depending on their destinations. According to the analysis, XRP whales moved 1.38 billion tokens during this period. This outflow suggests a potential contraction in the supply of tokens ready for immediate sale on the exchange.
How the market reacted
Whalio's own Binance spot order flow for XRP, measured when this story was written up on 8 October 2026. Not the outlet's figures.
XRP is trading at $1.42, with a 24-hour spot volume of $238,718,905 across 649,379 trades. The buy ratio has shifted from a balanced 53.1% over the last 4 hours to a bearish 39.7% in the last hour, indicating that short-term buying pressure is fading. This reversal is confirmed by the volume delta, which flipped from a positive $1,109,310 over 4 hours to a negative $1,550,676 in the last hour. The volume delta measures the net difference between buy and sell volume; a negative figure means sellers are dominating the flow. Over the full 24 hours, the cumulative volume delta sits at -$2,976,427, with a cumulative volume delta (CVD) closing at -$4,725,458, showing that net selling has outweighed buying throughout the day.
The latest daily buy ratio of 50.6% sits at the 83rd percentile of the last 322 days, against a median of 48.5% - stronger buying than most days.
Was that an ordinary day?
The same Binance spot measurements for XRP, averaged over the days leading up to the story.
This intraday shift contrasts with the preceding week, where the average buy ratio was 49.5%, nearly matching the 24-hour average of 49.4%. While the 24-hour volume of $238,718,905 is 1.48 times the weekly average, the price has declined by 4.6% over the past 8 days. The weekly volume delta shows a total outflow of -$17,995,794, with only 2 of the last 7 days recording net buying. This indicates that despite today's elevated volume, the broader trend remains bearish, with selling pressure persisting over the longer timeframe.
