IMX and XDC see $1.5M in exchange outflows as whales accumulate
Whales moved $1.5 million in IMX and XDC tokens off exchanges in a single day, the largest exchange outflows of 2026 for both altcoins.
Immutable X and XDC Network recorded their largest exchange outflows of 2026 on Tuesday, with 4.67 million IMX and 10.38 million XDC tokens leaving exchange wallets.
"Large exchange outflows are often viewed as a bullish signal because they suggest traders are moving assets into cold storage or long-term holding rather than preparing to sell," Santiment said in a post on X.
The net outflows totaled roughly $760,000 in IMX and $756,000 in XDC, according to Santiment data. The moves come as both tokens benefit from strengthening sector narratives — Web3 gaming for Immutable X and real-world asset tokenization for XDC Network.
The reduced exchange supply could support price appreciation if buying demand holds, though both tokens face key resistance levels that must be breached to confirm a sustained rally.
IMX finds support near $0.16 as gaming narrative strengthens
Immutable X, an Ethereum layer-2 scaling solution for Web3 gaming, has continued building its ecosystem with hundreds of partnered studios and ongoing zkEVM development. The company has also introduced AI-focused gaming tools and integrations designed to attract larger traditional gaming companies into blockchain infrastructure.
The token traded near $0.16 on Tuesday, holding above the lower trendline of an ascending channel that has contained price action since April. A move above the $0.18 to $0.22 range would open the door for further gains, according to chart analysis. The relative strength index has cooled toward neutral levels after the recent pullback, suggesting overheated bullish momentum has subsided, while the MACD remains under bearish pressure after a negative crossover.
XDC breaks downtrend resistance as enterprise adoption grows
XDC Network, a blockchain focused on trade finance and cross-border payments, has gained traction from its ISO 20022-compatible financial messaging system and growing institutional custody support. Recent ecosystem upgrades, rising transaction milestones, and custody support partnerships have strengthened investor confidence in the network's long-term utility.
The token broke above a long-standing descending trendline resistance that had capped price action for several months, stabilizing near the $0.029 support zone. XDC now faces resistance near the $0.037 to $0.038 range, a major supply zone. The Gaussian Channel indicators maintain a broader bearish structure, suggesting sustained momentum is needed for a larger trend reversal. However, the price structure has improved as XDC continues forming higher lows after reclaiming the descending resistance trendline.
Both tokens are showing early signs of accumulation as whales continue pulling large amounts of tokens off exchanges. While IMX benefits from growing optimism around Web3 gaming, XDC continues gaining traction from the expanding real-world asset and enterprise blockchain narrative. The improving technical structures and rising exchange outflows suggest investors may be positioning for a larger move ahead, though both tokens still need to overcome crucial resistance zones before confirming a sustained bullish breakout.
