Binance’s XRP Stash Tumbles To Record Lows: Liquidity Freeze?

XRP’s supply on Binance hits rock bottom: a strong sign of institutional interest or lack of retail demand?

Binance took XRP coins to their freezing zone.

With the arrival of the inaugural Ripple’s XRP Spot market price-tracking ETFs on traditional stock markets, XRP’s Ledger saw plenty of action on major crypto exchanges (CEXs). Binance, the globe’s biggest crypto platform by daily trading volume, shelled out 300 million XRP coins since early October, 2025, leaving the exchange’s reserves at 2.7 billion.

Why Did 300M XRP Just Vanish From Binance?

Notably, this signals a new all-time low (ATL), hinting at a supply squeeze. With Ripple’s (XRP) demand growing to unprecedented levels due to fresh investment vehicles in the stock market, a supply crunch on Binance could dramatically raise the scarcity. Typically, a shift from centralized exchanges to self-custodial wallets occur along with long-term belief in the asset’s growth.

If the institutional players are absorbing the digital asset before the retail jumps back in, the market correction has likely concluded. With the recent ETF breakthrough, XRP coin’s institutional momentum is driven with $21 million inflows on Wednesday.

However, some major exchanges entered a completely different route & started actively topping up their Ripple coin (XRP) reserves. A great example of this is the South Korean Bithumb exchange, a Seoul-based crypto platform that’s been around since 2014.

As Ripple coin’s (XRP) price dances around the $2.20 major demand territory, Bithumb saw a massive liquidity spike in XRP coin, hinting at rising demand for the OG altcoin in South Korea. 

The Asian crypto giant now holds 1.78 billion XRP coins in comparison to Binance’s 2.72 billion. With a total supply of a 60.33 billion, XRP coin’s scarcity on exchanges signify a long-term holding intention for crypto whales, while retail players showcase contrasting behavior.

People Also Ask:

What do Binance’s XRP reserves show now?

They’ve dropped to a 12-month low of about 2.71 billion XRP as of November 27, 2025, down from 3.02 billion since early October—after ~300 million XRP ($640M+) withdrawn.

Why the sudden tumble?

CryptoQuant data points to long-term holders and institutions pulling XRP to private wallets, reducing exchange supply. Some internal shuffling plays a role, but net withdrawals dominate.

Is this an all-time low or just yearly?

It’s the lowest in 12 months (2025 low for sure), not absolute all-time—reserves hit similar dips before, but this aligns with rising ETF demand for a potential supply crunch.

How does it link to the ETFs?

Launches from Canary Capital (Nov 13), Bitwise, Grayscale, and Franklin Templeton drove $21M+ inflows on Nov 26 alone. This institutional buying likely accelerates off-exchange moves, tightening liquidity.

Bullish or bearish for XRP price?

Mostly bullish—lower reserves mean less sell pressure, hinting at accumulation. XRP holds ~$2.20; analysts eye $2.60–$3 if trends hold, but watch the $2 support line for risks. Not financial advice—always DYOR.
