- The whale population has rebounded after a significant decline in the fourth quarter, with 42 major colonies having returned since January.
- Data on blockchain shows growing interest from “savvy investors.”
According to data from Santiment, the price of XRP has fallen by about 4% since the beginning of 2026, but the number of “millionaire” wallets has started to rise again after a few months.

Santiment described the recent rebuild as “an encouraging long-term sign,” largely due to market caution.
Some blockchain signals seem to agree with this. Data from Nansen shows that the accumulation of XRP by “smart money” traders, i.e. wallets associated with the most profitable traders in the market, rose by 11.55% in the last 30 days.
However, analysts remain divided on XRP’s short-term outlook.
Crypto trader CW said in a post on X that XRP looks close to breaking the main selling wall, arguing that continued net buying could push the price to $2.30 if the resistance level falls.
The price of XRP is up about 1.3% in the last month, according to CoinMarketCap.
The potential for XRP’s price to rise is growing as analysts warn of regulatory risks
To a large extent, Asset management company 21Shares recently reported on XRP’s history For long periods of time followed by large advances, he said that better control of the voice and attention of the organizations can make the network ready to benefit.
While others encourage caution. Pav Hundal, an analyst at Swyftx, warned that the price rally of XRP may depend more on the rise of the media and the news of the market, adding that any surprises related to the vote of the US CLARITY Act may force the prices in the near future.

Meanwhile, the Fear and Greed Index for Cryptocurrencies read “Fear” on the 26th Thursday, showing continued caution among investors in the digital economy market.
