Long traders in XRP futures market have been repeatedly wiped out in recent weeks, even as large holders quietly add to their positions. Liquidations on Binance topped $2.5 million on March 18, followed by another $2.45 million four days later, and $2.15 million on March 26 — three sharp resets in less than two weeks that point to an unstable futures environment despite rising whale activity.

According to data tracked by CryptoQuant, whale inflows are now averaging $9 million per day on a 30-day moving average, and that buying streak has held without interruption since Feb. 27 — the longest sustained accumulation run since a similar period between April and July last year. That earlier stretch ended with XRP hitting an all-time high of $3.65 in mid-July 2025. The current buying activity stands in sharp contrast to the price chart, which has moved in the opposite direction. XRP has dropped 13.63% over the past 10 days after breaking down from a bullish pattern traders had been watching closely. Based on reports from CryptoQuant analysts, the altcoin could slide further to test support at $1.27, with a deeper fall toward the yearly low of $1.11 still possible if selling pressure continues. Open interest on Binance jumped close to 15% in the 24 hours ending March 26 — its highest single-day rise since early March — signaling that traders are adding new positions even as the market keeps punishing longs. The repeated liquidation spikes suggest that fresh money coming into the futures market is taking on more risk than conditions can currently support. Risk-Adjusted Returns Turn Slightly Positive One data point in XRP’s favor is its Sharpe Ratio, which measures how much return an asset delivers relative to its risk. After spending most of the period between October 2024 and February 2025 near or below zero, the ratio edged positive to 0.0267 as of March 26. Analyst Arab Chain, writing on CryptoQuant, called the movement a sign of gradual rebalancing, adding that a drop back into negative territory would signal renewed volatility. A 30-day average daily return of 0.00063 supports the shift, though the number is modest. Data shows gains remain small while volatility has stayed relatively flat — not a strong breakout signal, but a slight improvement from where things stood just a month ago.

Whales are buying. Retail futures traders keep getting liquidated. The Sharpe Ratio has improved but remains barely above zero. None of these signals points cleanly in the same direction.

Solana’s derivatives market is signaling something the price chart doesn’t fully show—and it matters right now. According to data from Coinglass, Solana’s total open interest across all exchanges is currently at $5.44 billion, which is about 65.12 million SOL in outstanding futures contracts. That figure places open interest back within the same range it occupied in April 2025, effectively erasing nearly a full year of buildup in the asset Related Reading: UK Slaps Sanctions On $20B Crypto Black Market Tied To Southeast Asia Scam Rings A Year’s Worth Of Leverage Is Gone According to CoinGlass, Solana’s open interest is currently around $5.45 billion, a level that stands far below the peaks seen during the late-2025 run-up. From late April 2025, Solana’s open interest continued to climb, scaling from the $5 billion to $6 billion range through the summer months, breaking past $12 billion by mid-July, and ultimately peaking around $15 billion to $16 billion in mid-September 2025 when the SOL price was trading above $240. However, what followed that peak was an unwinding that has lasted for the past few months. Solana’s open interest fell through October and November 2025, briefly stabilized in December, then finally collapsed in January and early February 2026. At the time of writing, Solana’s open interest has now dropped to $5.44 billion, which appears to be the lowest point since early April 2025. That is important because it shows the Solana price ecosystem has unwound nearly a full year of speculative buildup. Many of the traders who were previously amplifying Solana’s moves through leverage are no longer as active. Solana Open Interest. Source: Coinglass What This Means For SOL Price The distribution of that $5.44 billion across trading exchanges shows that Binance holds the largest share at $951.84 million, which is about 17.49% of total open interest. This is followed by CME at $672.55 million and Bybit at $617.30 million. KuCoin stands out in the short-term data, recording the largest 24-hour OI change among major venues at +10.42%, though it originates from one of the smaller books in the table at $402.69 million. The CME open interest number is notable to watch, as it means that institutional participation via regulated futures is still holding up compared to other exchanges. Total Solana Open Interest. Source: Coinglass There is an important relationship between price and open interest. Whenever an asset’s price rises alongside open interest, it means new money is entering and momentum is being reinforced. On the other hand, when price falls and open interest also falls, it usually points to a reset, where positions are being closed and leverage is being removed from the system.

The bearish reading is that fewer leveraged traders means less immediate buying pressure and less momentum support, which can leave price vulnerable if spot demand does not step in. The more constructive reading is that a large part of the excess leverage has already been washed out. At the time of writing, Solana is trading at $83.51, down by 2.7% in the past 24 hours.

Binance’s Ethereum reserves are sitting at their lowest point since 2020 — and that’s just one piece of a much bigger picture. Across the board, Ethereum held on exchanges has fallen to its lowest level since 2016, a shift driven by back-to-back withdrawals and a staking surge that is pulling coins deeper out of circulation. Related Reading: Bitrue Says XRP Should Already Be At $10, Traders Are Betting It Gets There A Wave Of Withdrawals Across Major Platforms On March 22, crypto analyst Amr Taha flagged a $1.67 billion ETH withdrawal from OKX. Binance also recorded two separate outflows topping $300 million earlier in the quarter. Those moves didn’t happen in isolation. Data from analyst Arab Chain show that roughly 31.6 million ETH left major exchanges in February alone — the biggest monthly outflow since November. Binance accounted for about 14.45 million ETH of that total, close to half. OKX followed with around 3.80 million ETH, and Kraken recorded roughly 1 million ETH during the same stretch. When coins leave exchanges at that pace, it matters. Sustained withdrawals shrink the pool of coins available for spot trading. Assets moved to private wallets or staking platforms tend to be less liquid in the near term, and thinner exchange balances can sharpen price swings when market activity picks up. Ethereum: Staking Reaches A Record High The withdrawal story runs alongside a staking story, and together they paint a picture of tightening supply. About 38 million ETH is now locked in staking, equal to roughly 33% of total supply — the highest level on record. Staking infrastructure provider Everstake weighed in on what that means for the market. The company said that a steady drop in liquid supply, combined with ongoing demand, sets up conditions for a structurally firmer price floor. That’s not a short-term trade signal. It’s a longer-term structural shift — one where a growing share of ETH is committed to the network rather than sitting ready to be sold. Analysts are watching what happens next on the price chart.
