XRP futures volume hits six-month high as price jumps nearly 30% in August

XRP futures trading volume surged to $64.6 billion in August, the highest since February, driven by a nearly 30% price increase from $1.06 to $1.50. Binance led the derivatives market with $37 billion in futures volume, followed by Bybit and OKX. Spot trading also rose, especially on Binance and South Korean exchanges. The surge is linked to whale accumulation ahead of a key September vote and growing interest in XRP ETFs, which saw $18.96 million in inflows. Despite the volume spike, futures trading showed mixed bullish and bearish positions, indicating no clear market consensus.
