Ripple’s CEO Brad Garlinghouse confirmed RLUSD will be available today on platforms such as Uphold, MoonPay, and Bitso, with additional support expected on Bitstamp and Zerohash.
Positive signals emerge amid heightened whale activity
Data from the on-chain analytics platform Santiment highlights strong whale activity involving Ripple’s native coin over the past few weeks. Notably, large holders began accumulating the asset during a market dip in early December, contributing to XRP’s price rise from $0.60 to $0.80.
While the coin’s price rally has garnered attention, some investors appear to be cashing in on the gains. On-chain tracker Whale Alert recently flagged a transaction involving 69.3 million XRP (valued at $175.87 million) moved to Binance by a wallet identified as “rEbXa….poLBo.” Such activity suggests that certain holders may be preparing to book profits following the price surge.
CryptoQuant, another analytics platform, observed that spikes in large XRP transactions to exchanges often coincide with price peaks. These trends indicate that while whales are accumulating, some are also positioning themselves for potential profit-taking as market activity heats up.
RLUSD launch could positively affect XRP
Ripple’s highly anticipated USD-backed stablecoin, RLUSD, is set to launch globally today following Monday’s official announcement. The rollout follows Ripple’s December 10 approval from the New York Department of Financial Services (NYDFS), which greenlit the stablecoin after initial speculation of a December 4 launch.
The coin has surged over 13% in the last day, trading at $2.67, as its 24-hour trading volume soared by 156% to $17.4 billion. According to recent updates from Coinmarketcap, the cryptocurrency has achieved a remarkable year-to-date gain of over 300%.
Data from CoinGlass revealed a nearly 21% increase in XRP Futures Open Interest, signaling strong market confidence.
Other crypto analysts have also shared bullish outlooks for the token, forecasting rallies of up to $9. Maintaining support above $2.52 could be critical for XRP, with its next target at $2.72, and subsequent milestones at $5.85 and $8.76.

A separate analysis by crypto trader Impulsive Dom highlighted a potential sideways movement during the holidays, with last week’s lows likely to remain protected. The analyst suggested that this consolidation could pave the way for a fifth wave, potentially pushing XRP into the $4–$5 range.
Moreover, analysts have highlighted how XRP recently broke out from a short-term descending parallel channel. This breakout suggests the short-term correction has ended, with the RLUSD launch likely contributing to renewed bullish sentiment.
