The XRP Rich List, an index of the richest XRP addresses, has welcomed over 25,000 wallets since December 2025 amid the ongoing XRP price rebound.
This is according to data from a community-driven XRPL on-chain data resource. Notably, this positive trend cuts across every address tier on the XRP Rich List, as retail investors return to the market on the back of the recovery push.
Such positive development is particularly important for XRP’s price momentum, as it creates stronger demand pressure that could help the crypto asset hold above important support levels like the $2 psychological mark and maintain the rebound effort until greater buy pressure arrives.
Key Data Points
- The XRP Rich List has recorded an addition of 25,617 wallets since Dec. 17, 2025, marking one of the largest spikes within a month.
- This increase impacted all ten address tiers on the rich list, from the top 0.1% to the top 10%, corresponding to the overall rise in total wallet addresses.
- Total wallets holding XRP increased from 7.414 million to 7.513 million during the period under consideration.
- Of the ten address tiers, the top 10% witnessed the largest spike in wallets, with a contribution of up to 9,924 addresses.
- Amid this positive wallet trend, the XRP price has increased 14% to $2.1 since Dec. 17, 2025.
How Each Wallet Tier Contributed
For context, during a Dec. 17, 2025, report from The Crypto Basic on the prospect of investors retiring in 10 years after entering the XRP Rich List, the total number of addresses between the top 0.01% and the top 10% stood at 1,913,587, with the top 10% contributing 741,413 addresses.
Today, the total number of addresses has increased to 1,939,204, marking an increase of 25,617 within a month. Of this figure, the top 10%, which represents the lowest address tier, saw an increase of 9,924 wallets, the largest for any single percentile. Meanwhile, the top 5% and the top 4% respectively contributed 4,962 and 3,970 addresses.
XRP Rich ListExpectedly, the lowest contributions came from the most exclusive tiers, specifically the top 0.1% and 0.01%. While the top 0.01% added 100 wallets to its total, the top 0.1% only witnessed an addition of 11 wallets. This is natural, considering investors need to hold at least 296,836 XRP ($623,355) to enter the top 0.1%, and a whopping 3.834 million XRP ($8 million) to become a top 0.01% holder.
An Overall Increase in Total XRP Wallets Amid Price Rebound
The addition of over 25,000 addresses on the XRP Rich List comes amid an overall increase in the total addresses holding XRP. Notably, this metric has seen a steady upward trend since July 2024, during which the XRP Ledger has welcomed over 2.2 million wallets
Meanwhile, of these 2.2 million wallets, about 99,000 emerged over the past month alongside the addition of 25,000 wallets to the rich list. Specifically, as of Dec. 17, XRP boasted 7,414,131 wallets. Today, there are 7,513,364 wallets holding XRP, representing an increase of 99,233 addresses.
The rapid rise over the past month comes as the XRP price records an impressive rebound on the back of a broader market recovery. From the $1.84 low on Dec. 17, 2025, XRP has increased 14.1%, as it currently changes hands at $2.1 at press time. XRP is also up 14.23% this year, having added $15.97 billion to its market cap.
