Sharks bought $36.4 million of RLUSD in a day. Over the week, whales sold $12 million net

Key points
- In the 24 hours to 6:36 a.m. ET on November 10, shark wallets bought $36.37 million of RLUSD on Ethereum and sold $15.18 million, in 37 trades by two wallets, DeepSea's live feed shows.
- Over seven days, DeepSea's RLUSD page showed whales as net sellers of $9.98 million at 6:52 a.m. ET and $12.16 million by 6:58 a.m. ET.
- Etherscan counts 1.80 billion RLUSD on Ethereum and 13,093 holders. CoinGecko puts RLUSD's market cap at $2.68 billion across all chains.
What DeepSea's data shows
RLUSD is Ripple's dollar stablecoin. DeepSea's live feed showed heavy shark buying on Ethereum in the 24 hours to 6:36 a.m. ET on November 10: $36,367,229 bought and $15,183,055 sold, a net of about +$21.18 million, in 37 trades by just two wallets.
The longer view points the other way. DeepSea's RLUSD token page showed a 7-day whale net flow of minus $9.98 million at 6:52 a.m. ET, with smart money and KOLs at $0. Six minutes later, at the time of our screenshot, it read minus $12.16 million. The page lists RLUSD on Ethereum at a $1.75 billion market cap, $95.05 million of liquidity and $46.43 million of 24-hour volume. The single largest holder has 17.68% of the supply DeepSea tracks.

One wallet trades RLUSD in big blocks
In the last hour of the window, DeepSea's feed had one shark wallet buy $4,000,052 and sell $4,502,680 of RLUSD in two trades. That wallet, ending in 3425, is the seventh-largest RLUSD holder on DeepSea's list with 4.81% of the tracked supply, and DeepSea tags it "Blue-chip holder."
Its wallet page, read at 6:57 a.m. ET, shows $97.00 million in total balance and no public label. The latest trades: a $2.18 million RLUSD sale 8 minutes earlier, a $4.00 million buy 40 minutes earlier and a $4.50 million sale 52 minutes earlier, with more RLUSD buys and sales of about 1 million to 4 million tokens over the previous 12 hours. Over 30 days it shows 1,118 trades and $825.76 million of volume for a profit of just $4,900, with a 41% win rate.
The same list also shows "sales" of tokens whose names copy USDC, USDT and ETH with look-alike characters, and DeepSea puts no dollar value on them. Look-alike tokens are often sent to busy wallets as spam. They are not the real coins.
What the chain shows
Ripple's token address list confirms that the contract DeepSea tracks is RLUSD's Ethereum contract. Etherscan's token page, as of 10:54 p.m. ET on November 9, showed 1,797,515,664 RLUSD on Ethereum held by 13,093 addresses, worth about $1.80 billion. CoinGecko put RLUSD's total market cap across all chains at $2.68 billion and its 24-hour volume at $227.8 million at 6:58 a.m. ET, with the price at $1.00.

Why it matters
A stablecoin is meant to hold $1, so large RLUSD trades are not price bets. Buying and selling it in multimillion-dollar blocks usually means moving cash between venues, lending markets or other dollar tokens. One day of heavy buying by two wallets says little about demand. The 7-day whale outflow is the better guide, and it points down. On November 3 we reported a similar pattern: one shark bought $32.28 million of RLUSD and sold $15.53 million in a day.
LC Insight analysis
This section is our reading of the facts above, not a statement of fact.
- We think this is mostly one very active wallet moving dollars around, not new money arriving. A 30-day profit of $4,900 on $825.76 million of volume fits a cash manager or market maker more than a trader.
- The gap between a busy day of shark buying and a week of whale selling is a reminder to check the longer window before reading anything into one day.
- The look-alike USDC, USDT and ETH tokens in this wallet's history are spam, not sales. Anyone reading a busy wallet's trade list should check that a token is the real coin before counting it.
What's next
- Whether DeepSea's 7-day whale outflow for RLUSD keeps growing
- RLUSD's supply on Etherscan and its total market cap on CoinGecko
- Whether wallet 3425 keeps cycling RLUSD in $4 million blocks
