XRP Is Vanishing From Exchanges: Supply Ratio Drop Hints At A New Bid

XRP is quietly leaving Binance at a pace that’s beginning to register in CryptoQuant’s exchange supply metrics, a pattern one CryptoQuant contributor Darkfost (X: @Darkfost_Coc)says is consistent with renewed accumulation after a sharp year-to-date drawdown.

The data point at the center of the note is the Binance XRP supply ratio over the last ten days. “Over the past ten days, Binance’s XRP supply ratio fell from 0.027 to 0.025. About 200 million XRP left the platform,” Darkfost wrote, characterizing the move as “notable” in the context of short-dated flows.

CryptoQuant also flagged a familiar caveat: not every large transfer is “organic.” Exchanges reshuffle wallets, rotate custody addresses, or consolidate funds for operational reasons, which can muddy any simplistic read of inflows and outflows.

Darkfost argued the Binance dataset is still interpretable because public custody infrastructure provides some visibility. “Some movements may be internal reallocations. Binance publishes custody addresses, making it possible to distinguish organic user flows from operational adjustments,” the note said, suggesting the observed decline likely reflects at least some user-driven withdrawals rather than pure internal accounting.

That combination: a material year-to-date correction alongside a measurable reduction of exchange-held supply is often what analysts look for when they’re trying to identify accumulation phases. The logic is simple: coins moved off exchanges are, by definition, less immediately liquid, and that tends to be more consistent with holding than with imminent selling.

At press time, XRP traded at $1.4161.
