A tweet published by crypto analyst and investor Xaif has drawn attention to notable developments in XRP wallet distribution. According to a chart from Glassnode, the number of on-chain addresses holding at least 10,000 XRP has increased from approximately 281,000 in July 2024 to over 300,000 by May 2025. This growth, depicted by the green line in the image, reflects a consistent upward trend in the number of larger XRP holders for ten months. The black line on the chart represents the price of XRP in USD over the same period. The data shows a sharp increase in price beginning in November 2024, followed by a period of elevated volatility between December 2024 and March 2025. JUST IN : the number of addresses holding a minimum of 10,000 $XRP has grown from around 281,000 to 300,000 pic.twitter.com/PEQ5p40zwe — 𝕏aif | (@Xaif_Crypto) May 25, 2025 While price fluctuations occurred during this time, the number of addresses with 10,000 XRP and above maintained a steady upward trajectory, with only a minor dip in late December before continuing its climb. This metric is considered a proxy for accumulation by higher-value holders, suggesting that larger holders continued to acquire or retain their positions despite price volatility. As of May 2025, the number of addresses meeting the 10,000 XRP threshold has reached 300,000, the highest figure shown on the chart. Community Reactions Reflect Broader Interpretations of the Data In response to Xaif’s tweet, social media users provided varied commentary on the significance of the numbers. One user noted that the data presented does not include addresses that have moved XRP holdings to cold wallets. Since cold wallets are often used for long-term storage and typically exist outside of exchanges or actively monitored hot wallets, the number of significant holders could be even higher than the chart suggests.

This comment contextualizes the scale of XRP adoption, implying that while accumulation among existing users is increasing, overall market penetration remains low globally. Implications for Market Sentiment and Holder Behavior The increasing number of addresses holding over 10,000 XRP over a sustained period, especially during price volatility, may indicate growing confidence in the asset’s long-term potential among mid- to high-level holders. While the data does not provide a breakdown of whether these addresses belong to individuals, institutions, or custodial services, the trend is a meaningful indicator of increasing concentration or accumulation. Glassnode’s on-chain metrics are commonly used to observe investor behavior and sentiment in digital asset markets. When wallet counts in higher balance brackets rise, it can be interpreted as a sign that existing participants are reinforcing their positions. However, interpretations remain partial without complementary data on transaction flows, exchange activity, or cold storage movement. Xaif’s post did not provide commentary beyond the factual increase in wallet counts, focusing instead on the numerical progression. According to the chart, the price of XRP remains above $2 as of the time of the tweet, though it has not returned to the local high seen in early 2025.
