XRP Derivatives Volume Explodes—Traders Bet Big on Next Leg Up
XRP open interest just hit a 12-month high as derivatives traders pile into bullish positions. The altcoin’s 30-day options volume surged 140%—a clear signal that smart money expects fireworks.
Behind the frenzy: Whale accumulation patterns mirror early 2021 behavior, back when XRP ripped 600% in three months. This time, the action’s concentrated in weekly calls at strike prices 20% above current levels.
Of course, Wall Street’s still pretending they ’don’t see the utility’—right up until their clients start demanding exposure. By then, the retail crowd will be left holding the bag as usual.
