Futures OI Tops $2.50B As Ripple Whales Buy Over 250M Coins
XRP News: Ripple whales have purchased millions of XRP in the last few weeks triggering a massive 200% rally this month. XRP price saw a 10% correction last weekend, but on-chain data revealed that whales have bought more than 250 million during the dip. Is a rally to $20 ahead as XRP futures open interest surpassed $2.50 billion?
Whales Accumulation Triggers Bullish News for XRP
Ripple whales purchased more than 250 million XRP over the weekend, according to on-chain data platform Santiment. It follows as whales moved to buy the dip after a recent selloff of XRP during the weekend.
Popular trader Ali Martinez signaled that the Ripple whales are bullish on a further rally in XRP price. The significant transactions indicate confidence in XRP or strategic accumulation. Traders must watch for potential market moves and legal resolutions of crypto lawsuits.
Whale Alert reported multiple XRP tokens transactions, including a transaction of 149,000,000 tokens worth $227 million transferred from crypto exchange Bybit to a wallet. Also, a whale accumulated 20 million XRP from South Korean exchange Upbit.
In addition, on-chain data reported 58,333,326 XRP valued at $87 million transferred from Binance to a whale wallet.
As CoinGape reported earlier, whales are accumulating the tokens massively amid bullish sentiment. Donald Trump’s win in US presidential election and US SEC Chair Gary Gensler’s resignation have fueled sentiment for the potential end of the Ripple lawsuit.
Rally Continues As Open Interests Hit Over $2.50 Billion
Ripple’s token saw a correction over the weekend but whales buying the dip came as major news for XRP investors. The recent dip came from South Korean investors. However, analysts have given a target of $2 and a long-term price target of $20 amid various bullish news for XRP.
Total XRP futures open interests have now surpassed $2.50 billion, hitting a new high. The futures OI increased to 1.59 billion XRP worth $2.50 billion amid massive buying seen on Binance and Bybit, as per Coinglass data.
XRP price has jumped 4% in the last few hours, with the price currently trading at $1.51. The 24-hour low and high are $1.31 and $1.54, respectively. Furthermore, the trading volume has increased by 24% in the last 24 hours, indicating a rise in interest among traders.

Crypto tokens WHY and CHEEMS garnered significant investor interest on Monday as digital asset exchange behemoth Binance issued a vital update on them. Notably, the crypto exchange revealed that it is launching USD-margined perpetual contracts for these assets, generating market optimism surrounding the coins’ future price action. However, with the coins trading in the red at the time of reporting, current investor sentiments remain uncertain despite the optimistic announcement.
Binance Unveils New Offerings For WHY & CHEEMS Sparking Discussions
Binance revealed in an official announcement on November 25 that it is launching perpetual contracts for WHY and CHEEMS on the same day. As per the announcement, the crypto exchange is launching 1000WHYUSDT perpetual contract today at 11:30 UTC. The platform’s colossal user base remains primed to enjoy up to a maximum of 75x leverage trading the asset.
Simultaneously, the announcement revealed that the exchange is launching 1000CHEEMSUSDT perpetual contract on the same date at 11:45 UTC. Users on the platform can enjoy a maximum of 75x leverage trading the asset. Further, the leading crypto exchange revealed that it would support ‘Multi-Assets Mode’ for the abovementioned assets, offering risk-reduction opportunities with better liquidation management for users. Overall, the announcement appears to have set off optimistic waves for the tokens’ future price actions, paving the way for increased money inflow with investor interaction.
How Are The Coins Performing?
Despite the optimistic futures listing announcement, the cryptos defied usual market sentiments and plunged into the red territory. WHY price tanked nearly 11% intraday and is sitting at $0.0000002554. The coin’s 24-hour low and high were $0.0000002337 and $0.0000003843, respectively.
Similarly, CHEEMS price crashed 30% intraday despite the listing to trade at $0.0000007016. Its 24-hour low and peak were $0.0000006198 and $0.000001534, respectively. Notably, these slumping actions have raised uncertain investor sentiments about the future price of the coins despite the perpetual contract launch.
Besides, it’s noteworthy that similar past chronicles were reported to have a bullish impact on tokens, adding a layer of intrigue to the matter. Solana meme coin SLERF noted a 55% uptick in its value with Binance’s futures listing.
Simultaneously, even HIPPO price soared remarkably with its futures listing on the same exchange. In light of these uncertain movements, crypto market watchers continue to monitor the tokens, being shrouded in an enigma over future movements.

Crypto Payments Giant Deepens Partnership With Archax
Ripple disclosed allocating $5 million into tokens on abrdn’s Lux fund. This is part of a larger fund that the company will allocate to RWAs on the XRPL provided by a range of asset managers.
“The arrival of abrdn’s money market fund on XRPL demonstrates how real-world assets are being tokenized to enhance operational efficiencies, while further reinforcing the XRPL as one of the leading blockchains for real-world asset tokenization,” said Markus Infanger, Senior Vice President, RippleX.

Last week, Archax added State Street, Fidelity International and Legal & General Investment Management (LGIM) funds to its tokenized RWA offerings. These tokenized funds will initially be available on XRP Ledger (XRPL), Hedera and Arbitrum blockchains.

Recent movements of the Dogecoin price have seen the meme cryptocurrency breaking to the upside of a bull flag pattern. This bull flag pattern took shape during a consolidation that began after the Dogecoin price reached a new yearly high on November 12.
Interestingly, Dogecoin price action over the weekend has seen an upward breakout of the bull flag to peak at $0.4759 and then an immediate retest. Technical analysis of the Dogecoin price suggests that this breakout/retest movement could lead to a breakout to $1.2 within the next 10 to 15 days.
Technical Formation Says Dogecoin Price To $1.2 In 10-15 Days
Many crypto participants are watching the Dogecoin price to see how it plays out in the next few days. According to a technical analysis by a crypto analyst called CryptoManiac101 on the TradingView platform, the current price pattern is pointing to a $1.2 price target in the next 10 to 15 days.
CryptoManiac101 noted that the Dogecoin price had broken out of the bull pennant but is currently retesting the breakout level, which is a critical area to watch for further price movement. The analyst emphasized the importance of this retest, calling it a “key area to be on the lookout for,” given its potential to either validate or invalidate the pattern.
Statistical analysis of bull pennants reveals a 70% probability of price continuation following a breakout. However, CryptoManiac101 suggested that this probability might be even higher in the current market environment, as there is a reigning idea of what many are describing as an altcoin bull market. Keeping this in mind, there is a higher probability that the Dogecoin could soon see sharp price movements upward.
The next milestones for the Dogecoin price are a confirmation of the retest and an “abrupt continuation” of the rally. The price targets are set between $0.74 and $1.20, which could be achieved within the 10 to 15-day timeframe mentioned. However, the analyst warned of the importance of holding above the $0.39 level, as a drop below this threshold could invalidate the bull pennant and lead to a bearish reversal.
What’s Next For The DOGE Price?
At the time of writing, the Dogecoin price is trading at $0.4252, down by 2.35% in the past 24 hours. Therefore, reaching the $0.74 and $1.2 price targets would translate to a price increase of 74% and 182%, respectively, from the current price.
Although reaching either of these targets would see the Dogecoin price breaking above its current all-time high of $0.7316, CryptoManiac101 did note that these are only short-term price targets. Other analysts have predicted much more bullish Dogecoin price targets in the longer term. For instance, one crypto analyst noted that the Dogecoin price is on track to reach $3 by January 2025.
