Fear of sell-off among XRP holders
Ripple’s this move shocked the community and the reactions from the community members and Twitter users were negative. It has created the fear of sell-off among the XRP holders. Token holders have angered because this development by Ripple signals a strong bearish trend for the coin ahead.
This was the additional 100M tokens that Ripple has unlocked because Ripple has already set an amount of 1 billion that it releases at the beginning of every month. However, this huge unlock could harm the price value of the coin in the upcoming days.
