100 Million TRX Floods Binance: Is This Tron Whale Move Fueling the Next Price Surge?
Whale alert: A seismic 100 million TRX just hit Binance—enough liquidity to shake Tron's price action. Market watchers are split: accumulation play or prelude to a dump?
Bull case: Big buys often precede rallies
When whales park this much firepower on exchanges, it's rarely for the coffee. Last time TRX saw moves like this, prices jumped 30% in three weeks. Traders are eyeing the order books for buy-wall formations.
Bear trap: Or just another 'buy the rumor' setup
Some desks are calling this over-leveraged speculation—the crypto equivalent of buying lottery tickets with margin. Remember when that hedge fund 'accumulated' Luna before Terra collapsed? Yeah. About that.
Either way, volatility's coming. Perfect storm for degenerate traders and 'I told you so' Twitter threads.
Key Takeaways
$22.5 million worth of TRX leave exchanges, hinting at a potential accumulation. If sentiment remains unchanged, TRX could see a 7% drop and may reach the $0.2965 level.
Tron [TRX] is at risk of a potential dip after losing local support. AMBCrypto’s analysis of the data reveals a significant dumping of TRX tokens on exchanges, which likely caused this decline.
This situation is now raising questions — Is it time to sell TRX, or is this just a correction?
100 million TRX move to Binance
On the 20th of July, blockchain-based transaction tracker WhalesAlert shared multiple posts on X (formerly Twitter) involving millions of dollars’ worth of TRX.
In one post, it was reported that an unknown wallet initially transferred 150 million TRX tokens, valued at $48.66 million, to the HTX cryptocurrency exchange.
However, the odd part is that HTX then transferred 99,999,999 TRX, worth $32.44 million, to Binance.
However, it has not yet been confirmed that HTX transferred this large amount of TRX tokens for a sell-off, but in the crypto landscape, such transactions are typically associated with a potential sell-off.
Price drop and $22.45 million accumulation
Following these transactions, the TRX price reacted immediately, slipping by 1.85% and currently standing at the $0.32 level. Not only has the price declined, but market participation has also fallen during the same period.
CoinMarketCap data reveals that TRX’s 24-hour trading volume has dropped by 45% compared to the previous day.
This drop, amid the trending market, has been taken advantage of by investors and long-term holders, as millions of dollars’ worth of TRX have left the exchanges, according to the on-chain analytics tool CoinGlass.
Data on spot inflows and outflows reveals that exchanges across the crypto landscape have witnessed an outflow of $22.45 million worth of TRX tokens.

Such an outflow of TRX from exchanges hints at potential accumulation and could reduce selling pressure.
Tron price action and technical analysis
AMBCrypto’s technical analysis revealed that TRX was in an uptrend at press time, but due to its overstretched price over the past couple of weeks, it appeared to be undergoing a correction.

However, on the four-hour timeframe, the asset has broken local support at the $0.323 level, opening the path for a price decline.
Based on recent price action, if the correction continues, TRX could see a 7% drop and may reach the $0.2965 level in the future.
As of now, TRX’s Relative Strength Index (RSI) stands at 55, indicating that the asset is in neutral territory, meaning it is neither in the overbought area nor in the oversold territory.
In such a case, traders often wait for breakout or reversal signals NEAR the next key support or resistance zones to determine the direction of the next move.
TRX traders’ strong bearish conviction
Given the current market sentiment, traders have begun betting on short positions, as revealed by Coinglass.
At press time, the major liquidation level on the lower side is $0.3136, where traders have built $3.25 million worth of long positions.
Whereas, $0.3264 is another level on the upper side where traders have built $4.10 million worth of short positions.

This clearly indicates that bears are currently dominating the asset, and the price may experience short-term downside momentum.
