🤑 Ripple’s $200M XRP Dump: Exit Liquidity or Masterstroke? 🚀

Ah, the dance of fortunes! 🕺 Chris Larsen, the maestro of Ripple’s symphony, has orchestrated a grand offloading—$200 million in XRP, vanished like a whisper in the wind. 🌪️ Since July 17, the ledger weeps, as ZachXBT, our modern-day Sherlock, traces the trail: 50 million XRP (≈ $175M) to four addresses, $140M waltzing into exchanges. A ballet of numbers, a farce of finance! 💃

CryptoQuant’s analysts, ever vigilant, raise the tally to 57 million XRP—a $200M exodus, as XRP retreats from its $3.66 pinnacle. 🏔️ Critics howl, “Correlation is not causation!” yet JA Maartun quips, “You’re the exit liquidity. Think twice.” 🤡 Oh, the irony of it all!

Lookonchain, with its forensic gaze, reveals Larsen’s coffers still brim with 2.81 billion XRP (≈ $8.4B). 🤑 ZachXBT confirms, “Only 2.81B+ left!”—a mountain of tokens, a shadow looming over the market. 🌋

The Founders’ Bounty: A Tale of Tokens and Triumph

In the annals of 2012, the XRP Ledger was born, its 100 billion tokens a fixed constellation. 🌌 Eighty billion to Ripple, twenty to the founders—a reward for their audacity. Larsen and McCaleb, each with nine billion, Britto with two. A trifecta of wealth, a triumvirate of dreams! 🏆

Brad Garlinghouse, the latecomer, received no founder’s kiss. Instead, Ripple’s board bestowed 750 million XRP—a CEO’s crown, valued at $246M by the SEC’s reckoning. 👑 Forbes, ever curious, pegs Larsen’s fortune at $9.2B, half in XRP. McCaleb, the liquidator, sits at $2.9B, while Britto’s wealth remains a riddle, wrapped in mystery. 🧩

Charles Gasparino, the Fox Business bard, proclaims Garlinghouse’s net worth at $10B—a titan among mortals. 🦸‍♂️ Yet, as XRP trades at $3.11, the question lingers: Is this a masterstroke or a mere mortal’s folly? 🤔
