An abrupt XRP sell‑off by more than -15% on 23 July was driven overwhelmingly by aggressive market selling on South Korean exchange Upbit, according to independent analyst Dom (@traderview2), who published multi‑venue order book heatmaps and cumulative volume delta (CVD) data to X. “Korean market Upbit chose violence today on XRP,” he wrote, quantifying “Over 75 million XRP sold at market over the last 24 hours.”

The spot CVD chart shared by Dom isolates net market buying and selling across major venues. While Binance, Coinbase, Bybit, OKX, Kraken and Bitstamp CVD lines remained comparatively flat to modestly negative, the Upbit CVD (purple line) plunged in a near‑one‑way trajectory to roughly –75 million XRP during the period, mirroring the intraday decline in the average spot price plotted alongside it. The analyst stated: “The pump AND dump was brought to you by Upbit… The orderbooks have been pretty empty, thus the quick move down today.”
Concurrent order book heatmaps for Binance, Coinbase, Binance USDⓈ‑M perpetuals and Kraken show a sharp breakdown from recent highs above $3.5 toward the mid‑$3.1 area during the session. Visible liquidity pockets were thin above price, with bids clustering just below, consistent with Dom’s observation that depleted depth amplified the impact of the concentrated Upbit flow.
