Coinbase stunned with 101,000,000 XRP

Two hours ago, blockchain sleuth Whale Alert, which monitors large cryptocurrency transfers, spotted two massive crypto chunks getting moved. Both transactions carried an approximately equal amount of crypto: 50,527,326 XRP and 50,520,869 XRP, worth $230.8 million cumulatively.

The sender wallets in both transactions were tagged by Whale Alert as anonymous, while the destination addresses were mentioned as Coinbase and an unknown wallet. 

However, the above-mentioned @XRPwallets account commented on these transfers, saying that the first transfer was sent to Coinbase from another Coinbase wallet, which makes it an internal XRP transfer. As for the second transaction, the 50,520,869 XRP were sent to Coinbase from a Bitstamp sub wallet.
