Back in July, XRP surged significantly after Judge Torres stated that XRP was not a security, handing Ripple its first victory.<\/p>\n<p>Whales have moved dozens and even hundreds of millions of tokens as Ripple continuously secured more victories against the SEC. Last week, Whale Alert reported that 400 million XRP tokens were moved from one anonymous address to another.<\/p>\n<p>Ripple\u2019s recent victories have opened the door for many analysts to weigh in their price predictions \u2014 some even go as far as predicting $240 per token.
