The post XRP Unusual Price Dump on Uphold Exchange: What Happened appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.

Members of the XRP community claimed to have observed an unusual price fall of XRP on the American exchange Uphold, which was not reflected in the broader crypto market.

Meanwhile, X user Marsha claimed otherwise, stating he received notification of an XRP price drop on Uphold and acquired some tokens after observing the asset trade higher at CoinMarketCap. However, he provided no proof of his claim. Another commenter attributed the situation to insufficient liquidity, noting…
