The whales’ actions have further compounded the negative outlook towards Ripple. As per Santiment’s holders distribution chart, the number of addresses holding 1 million to 10 million tokens went down from 1,352 on November 7 to 1,338. This is a hugely negative sign as it adds a lot of selling pressure on the market.
