The post XRP Rich List 2025: How Much XRP You Need to Join the Top 1%? appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News

As per reports from XRPScan and a detailed on-chain snapshot shared in early July 2025, crypto analyst Edoardo Farina highlighted the updated “XRP Rich List,” which ranks XRP wallets based on their holdings and reveals how rare it is to be among the top XRP holders.

Having said that, XRP holders are relatively rare because of how the token was initially distributed, the high cost required to reach top holding tiers, and the tendency of early buyers to sell their XRP too soon.

What Is the XRP Bridge List?

For those unfamiliar, the XRP bridge list tracks all existing XRP wallets and categorizes them based on how much XRP they hold. It shows how much XRP is required to enter the top 10 percent, 5 percent, or even the top 0.01 percent of holders.

According to the latest data, there are 6.6 million XRP wallets, but the analyst estimates there are fewer than 1 million real XRP holders worldwide. That means just 0.01 percent of the global population holds XRP, making XRP ownership far rarer than many might expect.

Here’s What It Takes to Be a Top XRP Holder

According to the latest data, there are about 6.6 million XRP wallets in existence. However, the number of actual holders is much lower due to duplicate wallets, dust accounts, and users with multiple addresses. The analyst estimates there are fewer than 1 million real XRP holders globally, that’s just 0.01% of the world’s population.

To be in the top 10 percent, you currently need 2,486 XRP. For the top 5 percent, the number rises to 8,758 XRP. To enter the top 1 percent, you need more than 50,000 XRP. If you hold 50,637 XRP or more, you are considered a whale.

Interestingly, only 663 wallets hold more than 5 million XRP, making them part of the ultra-elite top 0.01 percent. These are likely held by founders, early contributors like Arthur Britto and Chris Larsen, or major institutions and exchanges.

Holding XRP Isn’t Enough—Here’s What Long-Term Success Takes

The analyst pointed out that many XRP wallets are either inactive or belong to hardcore users who use multiple addresses. With such a small portion of the world even exposed to crypto, those holding XRP in self-custody are already ahead of the curve.

He also emphasized that as prices rise, it becomes harder to stay among the top holders. Last year, being in the top 10 percent might have required $1,000 to $1,500, but that number is increasing quickly.

Overall, if you wish, long-term success with XRP, you need to think beyond buying and holding. You need to keep your XRP in cold storage, control your emotions, and resist the urge to sell during price spikes.
