In particular, 142,506 accounts fall into this bracket. Collectively, these accounts hold an impressive 2,163,069,440. XRP.

Further down the list, the final segment comprises 473,525 accounts, with holdings of 3,514 XRP each. This group makes up the top 10% of the rich list.

Interestingly, a rarefied group of just 474 individuals stands out as exceptional holders. Each possesses a remarkable 6,064,380 XRP or more. This select group represents the top 0.01% of the entire rich list. The percentage further underscores the small concentration of wealth within the XRP ecosystem.

The Contributing Factor

As The Crypto Basic disclosed last month, the XRP ecosystem witnessed a surge in investor interest following the clarity of XRP’s regulatory status. About a month ago, the US court ruled in favor of the XRP community that XRP is not a security but a digital asset.

Concurrently, XRP trading volume burgeoned, putting it in a rivalry race against market bigwigs Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH). Interestingly, a top data analytic firm ranked XRP as the top traded altcoin of 2023, as The Crypto Basic reported.
