XRP News Today: XRP Surges 45% on 280M Whale Accumulation as DOGE Rises 2.065%

Cryptocurrency analysts have highlighted increased whale activity in XRP and DOGE markets, with large holders accumulating substantial token volumes amid heightened volatility. On-chain data indicates that over 280 million XRP have been added to whale wallets within a 10-day period, a trend historically associated with price stabilization and upward momentum, according to Ali Martinez, an on-chain data specialist [4]. Similarly, DOGE whale addresses have grown significantly, with reports citing the accumulation of 310 million tokens [1]. These movements, observed on July 25, 2025, have intensified speculation about potential price shifts and broader market dynamics.

The surge in whale accumulation has coincided with sharp price fluctuations for both assets. XRP has surged 45% following increased exchange inflows and whale activity, though it remains 15% below recent peaks [4]. For DOGE, a 2.065% weekly gain has been attributed to heightened large-holder interest, though analysts caution that such movements do not guarantee sustained upward momentum [2]. Technical indicators, including an oversold RSI and rising burn rates, have been cited as potential catalysts for further rallies in DOGE, with some forecasts suggesting targets of $0.46 or even $5. However, these projections remain speculative and lack immediate fundamental support [1].

The strategic shift toward altcoins appears to follow Bitcoin’s consolidation phase, as investors rotate capital into smaller tokens. Exchange balances for DOGE and SHIB show a 2.8% increase in holdings over 30 days, with whale addresses favoring accumulation over selling [6]. This trend aligns with broader market data showing Bitcoin’s dominance dropping to 59.4%, while altcoins like BNB and LTC post notable gains. Yet, the market remains fragmented, with some whales liquidating SHIB and DOGE positions, underscoring mixed signals among large investors [6].

Risks persist, particularly for XRP, which has faced sharp corrections linked to selling pressure from Ripple co-founders and broader market uncertainty [4]. A $140 million sell-off on Binance attributed to a Ripple co-founder recently crushed long positions, highlighting the sector’s volatility. Analysts emphasize that while whale accumulation can drive momentum, it does not inherently ensure price stability. Regulatory developments also loom as a critical factor for XRP, with intensified whale activity potentially attracting compliance scrutiny [4].

For DOGE, long-term forecasts like a $0.00010 price target by 2030, based on speculative growth assumptions, contrast with near-term fundamentals [3]. Meanwhile, XRP’s performance hinges on its ability to counter short-term selling and navigate regulatory uncertainties. The altcoin season narrative continues to evolve as investors weigh whale-driven optimism against the reality of a Bitcoin-dominated market.
