With the addition of the option to filter and choose, the XRPScan portal updated its list of the richest XRP holding accounts. Let’s have a look at who has millions and billions of XRP in their wallets on this particular occasion. The number of active XRP accounts has already surpassed 4.56 million, according to the data provided.
There are hardly many surprises when examining the top five. With combined holdings of 3.73 billion XRP and 2.32 billion XRP, respectively, Ripple and Binance share the top rank. Nonetheless, an unnamed address with a balance of about 1.38 billion XRP managed to squeak in between them. Other unnamed addresses of this type are much smaller. The closest one is sixth and only has 770 million XRP stored.
The most intriguing fact is that Upbit, the biggest South Korean exchange, took all of positions 15 through 24 at the top. Its addresses each contain 500 million tokens, totaling 5 billion XRP across all of them. U.Today previously covered the unusual XRP trading on Korean exchanges, and Upbit in particular. The token formerly represented about 40% of the exchange’s overall turnover, which was in the billions of dollars. This had place during the most recent XRP price surge.
The fact that Coinbase still has approximately 1.7 billion XRP saved on its addresses is also intriguing. Despite the fact that the largest U.S. exchange delisted the currency more than two years ago, Coinbase would undoubtedly rank among the top XRP holders right now based on the quantities saved on all 106 of those addresses.
