Such enormous transactions typically raise questions about market impact. They might represent over-the-counter trades with little immediate price effect or, if sent to an exchange, signal potential short-term selling pressure. This transfer also comes just one day before Ripple’s scheduled release of over 1 billion XRP for July, which could add to price volatility. These significant movements emerge as XRP and the broader Ripple ecosystem continue to draw attention, particularly in the context of the ongoing legal battle with the Securities Exchange Commission (SEC). Ripple’s leadership, however, insists it remains committed to resolving the case. In a recent development, District Judge Analisa Torres denied a joint request from Ripple and the SEC to reduce a $125 million civil penalty and reverse an earlier finding that Ripple’s institutional XRP sales were unregistered securities offerings. While Judge Torres partly granted the SEC’s request for an injunction and penalty, she also raised concerns about Ripple’s compliance with previous court limits. Despite this, Ripple insists the ruling does not change XRP’s legal status. XRP price analysis By press time, XRP was trading at $2.18, down about 0.5% over the last 24 hours.
