These mammoth transfers of XRP set the crypto community abuzz, raising a heated discussion in the comment sections. Many wondered about the nature of those transactions, talking about whales accumulating XRP. Some even thought that 320 million XRP was released by Ripple from escrow before its usual timing. However, one X user shed light on the origin of these enormous crypto moves, citing a @XRPwallets X account.
Ripple’s top partner behind these transfers
@XRPwallets reported that Ripple’s top partner in Japan, SBI, using its crypto exchange SBI VC Trade, sent the 320,000,000 XRP in two separate transfers of 160,000,000 XRP each.
These XPR lumps were transferred to an anonymous wallet ending in -QjNRCZ, according to data shared by XRPscan.
Internal Bitgo Initialization Wallet (Self Custody) transaction.
This is the 320M that was just sent from SBI VC Trade 4. Now forwarded as to 160M transaction within Bitgo Init. Wallet.

Another X user also cited this XRPscan data, saying: “From SBI VC TRADE 4 (rNRc2S2GSefSkTkAiyjE6LDzMonpeHp6jS) to someone.”
Ripple CEO $50 XRP bullish
In a recently published tweet, Ripple chief executive, Brad Garlinghouse, assured the XRP army on his 1,000% bullish stance on the future XRP price, namely that it will one day reach $50 per coin.
He published a “1000%” comment under a photo of an XRP tattoo on his shoulder published on Twitter back in 2023.
At the time of this writing, XRP is changing hands at $2.18. Since Friday, XRP is 5.58% up as it soared from the $2.07. That was a recovery after the 6% decline XRP faced on Friday. Since last Monday, the top-4 cryptocurrency, XRP, has seen an impressive increase of roughly 11%.
