According to CryptoQuant, large holders transferred approximately 1.669 billion XRP to Binance over the 30-day period ending in mid-October 2026. This volume represents the highest inflow level observed in seven months.
The recent activity follows a similar trend from mid-September 2026, when whale inflows to the exchange reached a peak of approximately 1.6 billion XRP. On October 15, 2026, the token was trading at about $1.31, reflecting a 5% decline over the previous 24 hours.
While exchange deposits have increased, US spot XRP ETFs have maintained a streak of 13 consecutive weeks of net inflows. These funds recorded cumulative net inflows of $1.8 billion by mid-October 2026.
On October 14, 2026, daily inflows into these ETFs amounted to approximately $740,000. Market participants are currently monitoring whether the recent surge in exchange liquidity will lead to increased selling pressure or remain part of broader trading strategies.
