By Daily Hodl Staff

After moving huge amounts of Bitcoin (BTC) and (ETH) over the weekend, crypto whales are now shifting millions in XRP and the metaverse project The Sandbox (SAND).

The crypto whale tracker Whale Alert has spotted four massive XRP transactions in the last 24-hours, moving a total of $126 million.

The single largest transfer moved 205,500,000 XRP worth $81.7 million from one unknown wallet to another unknown wallet.

The remaining whale transfers sent XRP both to and from a number of crypto exchanges, which suggests the large investors may have bought and sold the digital asset in big numbers.

Here’s a look at the additional large XRP moves in the last day.

Meanwhile, whales holding the Ethereum-based metaverse altcoin The Sandbox (SAND) are also moving millions in crypto as a new week begins.

One of the transfers sent SAND from an unknown wallet to the crypto exchange Binance, where it could potentially be sold on the open market.

In total, the XRP and SAND whales moved a whopping $202 million in just six transactions.

According to Whale Stats, 0.74% of the 1,000-largest Ethereum wallets in existence now hold SAND.

The top altcoin holding among those Ethereum whales is currently Tether (USDT) at 17.14%, Shiba Inu (SHIB) at 15.89% and USD Coin (USDC) at 15.86%.
