Moreover, whales have quietly continued with their acquisitions — having bought 900 million tokens in April alone.In addition, Ripple Labs reiterated the importance of the conclusion of the Ripple v. SEC case in its Q1 2025 XRP markets report. Although the case will, most likely, formally conclude in October at the earliest, the new set of regulations that the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) is expected to issue in tandem with the matter’s closing could provide a market-wide boost — one that XRP would most likely see the greatest benefit from.Featured image from ShutterstockThe post XRP open interest collapses from 1-month high appeared first on Finbold.
