On-chain data analytics firm Glassnode has identified an intriguing shift in retail investor preference, spotlighting XRP as a focal point of speculative interest. The findings, which come from Glassnode’s newly published report titled “Rippling Away,” reveal that while Bitcoin market indicators edge closer to a bearish zone, XRP has seen remarkable inflows of capital and user activity—albeit with signs of waning momentum.
