It is worth noting that the vast majority of XRP transfers involving Ripple are sold to the company’s On-Demand Liquidity (ODL) clients.
The number of Ripple’s ODL clients has skyrocketed recently, prompting the company to purchase XRP from secondary markets to meet their needs.
Other Large XRP Transfers
Furthermore, the cryptocurrency whale tracking service observed the movement of 40 million XRP coins ($13.68 million) from an unknown wallet to a Bitstamp address.
