A crypto analyst has shared new observations, revealing that a specific demographic continues to dominate XRP trading activity. The analyst explained that this trend has held steady despite the cryptocurrency experiencing notable downside momentum, with prices sliding to new lows amid <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/xrp-long-term-holder-shift-from-euphoria-to-anxiety\/amp\/\">broader market uncertainty<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2>Analyst Says Whales Are Dominating XRP\u00a0<\/h2>\n<p>A recent analysis report by market expert Xaif Crypto <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/Xaif_Crypto\/status\/2000289810683248916\" rel=\"nofollow\">suggests<\/a> that whales remain the dominant demographic influencing price action. He shared a chart on X highlighting Spot Average Order Size on the XRP Ledger, showing normal, retail, and big and small whale orders.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The analyst noted that the recent spike in XRP trading has been driven primarily by <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/xrp-holds-2-80-support-as-whales-accumulate-more\/amp\/\">whales<\/a>. According to his report, this trend has persisted despite the altcoin entering a period of short-term price weakness. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/analysis\/xrp\/xrp-price-suffers-sharp-1-85\/amp\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">The cryptocurrency has recently declined<\/a> toward its lowest price levels this year, raising concerns among smaller investors.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-645555\" src=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/XRP-Price-1.jpg?w=512&amp;resize=512%2C281\" alt=\"XRP Price 1\" width=\"512\" height=\"281\"><\/p>\n<p>Xaif Crypto explained that this type of behavior from whales is often seen during market bottoming phases. He emphasized that <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/xrp-new-phase-whale-accumulation-retail-volatility\/amp\/\">large holders typically increase accumulation<\/a> when prices are depressed and avoid aggressive buying once a strong uptrend is already underway. The analyst also noted that this strategy suggests whales may be positioning themselves ahead of a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/altcoin\/reasons-why-xrps-technical-structure-favors-upside-than-down-over-next-6-months\/amp\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">potential recovery in XRP\u2019s price.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>The continued presence of whales has also helped stabilize liquidity to some degree during the ongoing decline. While retail traders may hesitate amid falling prices, whale activity tends to prevent sharp breakdowns by absorbing <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/xrp-news\/xrp-selloff-whales-shed-coins-worth-1-billion-week\/amp\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">significant selling pressure<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n<h2>Buying Sentiment Surges Amid Price Weakness<\/h2>\n<p>A CryptoQuant analyst who also highlighted that XRP\u2019s trading activity continues to be dominated by whales has <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoquant.com\/insights\/quicktake\/693bc315b9c499788d366df3-Ripple-trading-is-still-dominated-by-whales\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">observed<\/a> a notable change in the cryptocurrency\u2019s Spot Taker CVD.

This shift suggests that aggressive buyers are now outweighing sellers, often interpreted as a sign of strengthening market sentiment and potential upside for price action.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-645556\" src=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/XRP-Price-2.jpg?w=512&amp;resize=512%2C272\" alt=\"XRP Price 2\" width=\"512\" height=\"272\"><\/p>\n<p>These market changes follow XRP\u2019s sharp drop, which has <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/brandt-on-xrp-investors\/amp\/\">pushed its price below $2<\/a> for the first time in months.
