Whale Recently Sold a Large Amount of OP: On-Chain Data

Image
The blockchain tracking firm Lookonchain tweeted earlier today that a whale recently made a large Optimism (OP) deposit to Binance. According to the post, the whale had sent 1.04 million OP, worth approximately $1.48 million. Shortly after making the massive deposit, the firm noted that the whale had sold some OP tokens at a loss. Lookonchain believed that the whale had done this out of fear of the upcoming OP unlock happening later today, which may result in millions of OP being dumped in the next 24 hours. At press time, the altcoin’s price stood at $1.47 following a 3.62% drop over the past 24 hours, according to CoinMarketCap.

XRP Price Prediction: XRP Projected to Reach New Heights, Targeting $2 Price Mark

Image
Despite a slight decline of 0.24% in the general crypto market and concerns about a looming recession in the financial sector, $XRP has shown an upward trend with a 4.42% increase in the past 24 hours. This positive movement is attributed to favorable developments in the legal battle between the SEC and Ripple, with lawyer John E. Deaton predicting a future price surge for $XRP. Deaton believes many hesitant investors will enter the market due to fear of missing out (FOMO) once it surpasses the $1 mark. As optimism for Ripple’s legal case increases and the company forays into crypto-friendly environments like the United Arab Emirates (UAE) for business, could we see the asset reach the $2 mark in a short while? Conversely, a growing number of investors are also exploring early-stage crypto projects making their debut in the emerging industry. One such trailblazer is the $WSM token, which has raised over a million dollars in presale less than one week after its debut. XRP Gains an
