Institutional investors are seeking safe haven and are pouring money into gold, oil, and Bitcoin, taking it out of XRP. Then, there is profit-taking after the recent XRP price surges and the prolonged crypto rally in general. However, these outflows are happening despite big XRP price increase and the rise of XRP holders, which indicates that the XRP ledger and the coin are being strongly supported by private investors, while institutional ones are taking a step back at the moment. #XRP #Spot XRP ETF #Binance Coin News #Bitcoin
