A major XRP transaction got attention on June 3 after 27.1 million XRP — worth about $60.1 million — was sent to Coinbase from a mystery wallet.

The premier cryptocurrency, which had traded steadily within the $104,000–$106,000 range throughout the week, plunged to below $101,000 as tensions escalated between the two influential figures who attacked each other via their personally owned social media platforms i.e. X (formerly Twitter) and Truth Social.

With another consolidation developing, market analyst Crypto Daan has highlighted the price levels that are critical to the next…
