Whales Market Price(WHALES)

Ethereum whales, defined as addresses holding between 1,000 and 10,000 ETH, have sharply reduced their holdings by approximately 21.5% (from 15.95 million to 12.52 million ETH) between October 2025 and May 2026. This sell-off, flagged as a supply overhang by analyst Ali Charts, indicates fading bullish sentiment among major investors and raises questions about short-term market stability. It contrasts with a previous accumulation phase and recent buying sprees, suggesting Ethereum's price may struggle to reach $3,000 without new institutional or retail demand. Concurrently, Ethereum's utility is growing, with tokenized U.S. treasuries on its network surpassing $8 billion, highlighting its role in traditional finance despite current price struggles below $2,300.

XRP whales are shifting into the SurgeXRP ($SGP) presale, with nearly 10% of its soft cap filled within hours. SurgeXRP is a real estate RWA marketplace building on the XRP Ledger, aiming to tokenize the global rental property market. The project focuses on real utility by offering fractional ownership of income-generating properties. The fixed supply $SGP token provides staking rewards, priority access to property listings, and governance rights. With the RWA narrative gaining traction, early investors are positioning in this XRPL-based infrastructure ahead of planned DEX listings.

Large XRP holders, or "whales," have accumulated a record 68.5% of the token's circulating supply, an eight-year high according to Santiment data. This aggressive buying is reportedly absorbing supply from exchanges. Analysts suggest this concentration could lead to a thin sell-side, potentially setting the stage for a major price breakout if XRP can decisively close above its current trading range of $1.29-$1.50. Market expert Ali Martinez identifies this as a key compression zone; a break above $1.50 could trigger a rally toward $1.80, while a close below $1.29 might invalidate the bullish structure.

New Bitcoin whales, defined as holders of over 1,000 BTC acquired within the last 155 days, realized approximately $1.77 billion in losses during the recent price crash, according to on-chain data. These short-term holder whales, considered the market's "weak-minded" side, panic-sold as Bitcoin's price dropped to around $59,000. In contrast, long-term holder whales minimized their loss-taking. Analyst Maartunn notes Bitcoin's price has yet to fall below its current Realized Price of $53,630 this cycle, a level historically seen as a buying opportunity. At publication, Bitcoin trades near $63,300, down over 13% for the week.
