Render (RENDER) Shows 23% Surge As Sharks & Whales Continue To Buy

Render has shown a sharp jump of more than 23% during the last week as on-chain data shows the large hands have continued to buy. Render Has Enjoyed Bullish Momentum Over The Past Week The cryptocurrency sector as a whole has witnessed an uplift recently, but Render has been among the altcoins that have really stood out from the rest. Whereas Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) have only seen weekly profits of around 3% and 9%, respectively, RENDER has shown an impressive 23% jump. Related Reading: Dogecoin Wins Over Major Demand Zone: Path To $0.15 Now Clear? The below chart shows how the recent performance of the asset has been like. Following this sharp growth, Render’s price has now neared the $6.5 mark for the first time in four weeks. In terms of the market cap, the asset has seen its valuation touch $3.3 billion, placing it at the 29th place on the top cryptocurrencies list. The coin is now chasing Pepe (PEPE), which is the 28th largest asset in the sector with a market cap of around $3.9 billion. Though, considering the 18% difference in their valuations, it wouldn’t be an easy task for RENDER, especially since PEPE generally shows a notable rise of its own when the market goes up. As for what could be behind the latest growth that the cryptocurrency has enjoyed, perhaps on-chain data can provide some hints. Sharks & Whales Have Been Busy Buying The Token Recently According to data from the on-chain analytics firm Santiment, the Render sharks and whales have participated in some considerable accumulation during the last eleven weeks. The indicator of relevance here is the “Supply Distribution,” which tells us about the amount of supply that a given wallet group on the network is holding right now. In the context of the current topic, the cohort containing addresses who own at least 100,000 tokens is of interest. At the current price of the coin, this cutoff is equivalent to just under $650,000, which is a significant amount. As such, this group corresponds to the large hands of the market, popularly known as the sharks and whales. Below is the chart shared by the analytics firm, which shows how the Supply Distribution for these investors carrying 100,000+ coins has changed over the last few months: From the graph, it’s apparent that the supply held by the Render sharks and whales has witnessed a considerable increase over the last eleven or so weeks. More specifically, these investors have added 20.54 million tokens to their wallets, equivalent to 3.7% of the total supply. Related Reading: Bitcoin Correlation With Gold Now At Highest Level Since March The buying spree from this cohort has continued during the latest price surge and thus, could be at least a factor behind why it has taken place.

Chainlink Sees 296% Jump In Large Transactions As Active Addresses Rise 14.7%, Whats Going On?

Chainlink whales are once again on the move in what seems to be a general reawakening. Large transactions on the blockchain network have ballooned recently, alongside a drastic increase in active addresses, hinting at a notable development. Therefore, in this report, we take a look at the significant increase in whale transactions and active addresses, as well as what could have triggered this burst of interest on the previously muted blockchain. Chainlink Whale Volumes Rises 295.93% According to data from the IntoTheBlock website, Chainlink whales are getting active again after a previous drop in activity. This time around, whale transactions consisting of LINK tokens with values of at least $100,000 and above, have seen a notable increase. Related Reading: Bitcoin Prediction: Crypto Pundit Reveals Why $100,000 Is The Nominal Price Level For 2025 On September 22, the number of large Chainlink transactions recorded was only 65, but by September 23, this number had risen to 130. This translates to a 100% increase in the number of transactions. In the same vein, the amount of tokens transacted also surged, but to a larger degree. Data shows that only 1.86 million LINK tokens were moved by Chainlink whales on September 22. However, this figure rose to 7.28 million tokens by September 23. In dollar terms, Chainlink whales moved $20.71 million on September 22 and $82.01 million on September 23. The total growth during this time came out to 295.93%. Daily active addresses also saw a significant increase on the network, although to a lesser degree compared to the whale volumes. Active addresses rose from 1,810 addresses to 2,070 addresses, representing a 14.72% increase. This rise in active addressees, coupled with the increase in whale transactions, suggests that attention is, once again, turning to the Chainlink network. Whats Driving The Recovery? So far, one notable development seems to be the driving force behind the Chainlink recovery and it has to do with the 21.co Bitcoin wrapper. The company announced that it was adopting the Chainlink Proof of Reserves mechanism for its 21BTC token, which is a wrapped version of Bitcoin that was made available on the Solana blockchain in May 2024. Related Reading: Shiba Inu Symmetrical Triangle Pattern Reappears, Why A 200% Rally Is Possible This move was to enable the company ensure completely transparency with 21BTC, while also tapping into the decentralization, programmability, and investor confidence that already exists in the Chainlink Proof of Reserves program. This will span across the 21BTC offering on both the Solana and Ethereum blockchains. As expected, the news was well-received by the community, triggering more active participation from investors. However, it has not had much of an impact on the LINK price, which continues to tread around the $11 level. The altcoins is seeing around 5% gains in the last week, meaning only small gains were recorded as a result of the announcement. Featured image created with Dall.E, chart from Tradingview.com

Bitcoin Whales Take Profit After Latest Price Jump Heres How Much They Sold

The latest on-chain data shows that a particular class of Bitcoin investors has been selling for profit in the wake of the recent price rally. The question here is how much did they sell and how much impact could it have on the Bitcoin price trajectory? Bitcoin Whales Dump 30,000 BTC In Four Days Impact On Price? In a new post on the X platform, prominent crypto pundit Ali Martinez revealed that Bitcoin whales have been increasingly active in the market in the days following BTC’s return to above $63,000. This on-chain observation is based on the drop in the total holdings of whales with balances between 1,000 and 10,000 BTC. Related Reading: Crypto Whales Buy $228 Million In XRP Following $5 Price Prediction According to data from Santiment, this cohort of Bitcoin whales has offloaded more than 30,000 BTC (worth around $1.86 billion) in the past 96 hours. Interestingly, this level of whale activity came after the premier cryptocurrency witnessed a price upswing triggered by the interest rate cut by the US Federal Reserve. Whales which typically refer to individuals or entities holding significant amounts of a particular cryptocurrency are perceived to hold considerable influence over the market due to the size of their holdings. Hence, their buying or selling activities can precipitate abrupt price swings in the short term. The Bitcoin market has been under a considerable amount of bearish pressure so far in September, falling to as low as $53,000 at some point. The Fed rate cut seemed like the perfect catalyst to turn things around and spark a fresh bullish momentum. However, profit-taking observed amongst the large investors could stall this recovery. When whales sell off their assets, it often causes other investors to tread the market with caution, as they wonder what the large holders know. This can lead to heightened selling pressure or a momentary price pullback.  BTC Price At A Glance  Nevertheless, it is worth mentioning that the Bitcoin price has made significant movement in the past few days. As of this writing, the flagship cryptocurrency is valued at $63,131, reflecting a mere 0.1% decline in the past day. According to data from CoinGecko, the value of BTC has increased by more than 5% in the past week. The market leader seems to be performing even better on broader timeframes.

Crypto Whales Buy $228 Million In XRP Following $5 Price Prediction

XRP whales are bucking the trend with noticeable moves amidst a wider backdrop of uninspiring price movements for the cryptocurrency. A recent surge in XRP acquisitions has caught the crypto community’s attention, as large-scale investors acquired $228 million worth of the digital asset in a few days. Interestingly, this noticeable spike in buying comes on the heels of the launch of the Grayscale XRP Trust and an optimistic price prediction that sees XRP potentially hitting $5 in the next six to ten months. Whale Accumulation Increases Amidst Bullish Predictions This exciting movement by XRP whales was revealed through the crypto’s supply distribution on the social media platform X by Ali Martinez. According to the Santiment chart shared by the crypto analyst, wallets holding 10 million to 100 million XRP tokens recently pushed their total balance to a September peak of 7.17 billion XRP after adding about $288 million worth of XRP tokens in ten days. Related Reading: Grayscale XRP Trust Surges 11.44% One Week After Launch, Heres The Catalyst Based on the average price of the altcoin during this period, this equates to the acquisition of approximately 390 million tokens by this group of large holders, representing about 6.9% of the total circulating supply moving into the hands of a few key players. Although the total balance of the whales had dropped to about 7.11 billion XRP at the time of Martinez’s post, recent developments point to continued accumulation in the coming days. One of these developments is the recent launch of the Grayscale XRP Trust, which seems to be already attracting institutional investors to the token. However, despite this uptick in whale activity, XRP has not mirrored the price jumps in other major cryptocurrencies following a favorable U.S. Federal Reserve decision. The Federal Reserve’s 0.5% interest rate cut has fueled a broader inflow into the cryptocurrency market, propelling assets like Bitcoin and Ethereum to notable gains. In contrast, the price has struggled to break above the $0.60 mark, even with heightened whale activity. Crypto analyst Ash Crypto predicted that the altcoin could reach $5 in the next six to ten months. This forecast aligns with a wider backdrop of optimism within the crypto space, with multiple assets experiencing upward momentum as the effects of the Federal Reserve’s policy changes continue to ripple through markets.  Related Reading: Dogecoin Open interest Remains Muted Below $500 Million, Whats Going On? XRP $5 Prediction According to a recent outlook by Ash Crypto, XRP is on target to perform a 300% to 740% increase in the current market cycle. Such a rally puts the altcoin at a price target between $3 and $5. Notably, the crypto analyst’s outlook isn’t based on a technical analysis but on  fundamentals and a predicted rally by the general crypto market. As such, Ash Crypto’s outlook also forecasts Bitcoin trading between $150,000 and $250,000 and Ethereum trading between $10,000 and $15,000 in the next six to ten months. At the time of writing, XRP is trading at $0.5828. Featured image created with Dall.E, chart from Tradingview.com

These Altcoins Are Seeing High Whale Interest After Fed Rate Cut

On-chain data shows three altcoins are observing a high transaction activity from the whales after the US Federal Reserve (Fed) announced a rate cut. Whale Transaction Count Has Spiked For These Altcoins Recently In a new post on X, the on-chain analytics firm Santiment has discussed the Whale Transaction Count trend for three altcoins. The “Whale Transaction Count” here refers to an indicator that keeps track of the total number of transactions taking place on a given cryptocurrency network that involves a value of more than $100,000. Transfers of this scale are typically associated with whales, the largest entities on the network, so the indicator’s value can provide hints about the current activity from this cohort. Related Reading: Crypto Shorts Suffer $147 Million Squeeze As Bitcoin Returns Above $63,000 When the value of this metric is high, it means the whales are making a large amount of moves right now. Such a trend implies these humongous holders have an active interest in trading the coin. On the other hand, the indicator having a low value suggests this group may not be paying too much attention to the asset at the moment as they aren’t making that many transfers. Now, here is a chart that shows the trend in the Whale Transaction Count for three altcoins, Immutable X (IMX), Fantom (FTM), and Basic Attention Token (BAT), over the last few weeks: As displayed in the above graph, large spikes in the Whale Transaction Count have been observed for all of these altcoins over the last couple of days. This would suggest that the whales have suddenly become very active on these networks. The timing of the spikes would mean this activity is likely related to the interest rate cut announced by the Fed. While the high values indicate a surge in trading interest from the whales, the Whale Transaction Count alone can’t tell us what sort of trades these humongous investors are making exactly. Buying and selling transactions both look the same from the perspective of the indicator, and thus, carry the same weightage in its count. What can provide hints about whether accumulation or distribution is dominant, though, is the surrounding price action. Bitcoin and the altcoins as a whole, including Immutable X and company, have surged since the Fed announcement, so the increased whale activity could be associated with buying. Related Reading: Will Bitcoin Bullish Swing Continue? Top Analyst Says Yes Naturally, any further spikes in whale activity aren’t necessary to be bullish, but Santiment notes that if Bitcoin and others continue to grow, then these altcoins can also thrive off a high Whale Transaction Count. IMX Price Immutable X has continued the latest bullish push during the last 24 hours with another surge of almost 10%, which has taken its price to $1.58. The below chart shows how the recent performance of IMX has been like. Featured image from Dall-E, Santiment.net, chart from TradingView.com

Ripple Whales Accumulate Over 380 Million XRP in Just 10 Days: Is A Breakout Near?

XRP has shown remarkable resilience recently, maintaining its position above a critical support level, though a significant price move still looms. Key data from Santiment reveals that whales are actively accumulating XRP, having purchased over $228 million in the past few days.  Related Reading: Crypto Analyst Predicts Dogecoin Will Surge 1,000% Past ATH Price Targets Revealed This aggressive accumulation suggests a growing confidence among large holders as the market rallies toward higher prices. Analysts and investors closely watch XRP, anticipating a breakout from key supply levels that could trigger a rally to new highs.  With bullish sentiment rising, the next few days will be crucial in determining XRP’s price direction and its role in the ongoing market cycle. Will this whale activity lead to a major upward move, or could XRP remain in its current range? Only time will tell, but expectations are high as momentum builds in the broader crypto market. XRP Investors Waiting For A Big Move The crypto market has seen a significant surge, with Bitcoin and many altcoins posting double-digit percentage gains in recent days. The Federal Reserve’s decision to cut interest rates by 50 basis points sparked this rally, fueling optimism among investors now eyeing the potential start of a new crypto bull run. While investor sentiment for XRP has turned positive, the market has not yet reflected this in the token’s valuation. Top analysts and market participants are sharing insights that suggest XRP may be gearing up for a strong performance this cycle. One prominent technical and on-chain analyst, Ali, highlighted compelling data from Santiment, which shows that XRP whales are making substantial moves.  In the past 10 days, these large holders have purchased over 380 million XRP, valued at approximately $228 million. This marks the highest level of whale accumulation since early August, a bullish signal for XRP. The accumulation of XRP by whalesoften considered smart moneyis a sign of strength and confidence in the token’s future price action.  Related Reading: XRP The Safest Investment To Make 100% ROI Former Asset Manager Shares Price Targets As the broader market continues to push higher, investors are optimistic that this accumulation could be an early indicator of a major rally for XRP in the coming days. With momentum building, many are positioning for the next big move. Price Levels To Watch  XRP is currently trading at $0.59 after several days of choppy price action, testing a supply level around this range. While XRP remains above the daily 200 moving average (MA) at $0.549a sign of long-term strengthit has struggled to close above the $0.60 mark since late August. For bulls to trigger a move to new local highs, the price must reclaim the $0.60 level and hold above it. Doing so would set the stage for a challenge to a key liquidity zone around $0.65. The $0.65 price point has served as a significant resistance level, unbroken since early March. It’s also considered a psychological barrier that, if breached, could drive the price to higher levels rapidly. Investors and analysts are keeping a close watch on this level, as breaking through it would likely bring renewed bullish momentum. Related Reading: Dogecoin Breaking Out Of Monthly Downtrend: Can DOGE Reach $12? However, if the price fails to close above the current price level in the coming days, a pullback toward the daily 200 MA around $0.55 is expected. This would mark a critical test of support, and any breach below this level could signal further downside risk for the token. Featured image from Dall-E, chart from TradingView
