A cryptocurrency hit a new record and has now reached 2,700 whales. The cryptocurrency XRP, developed by Ripple Labs, has reached a new milestone: there are now more than 2,700 addresses that hold at least one million units. This is the largest number of "whales" —investors with large holdings— recorded on the XRP Ledger in over a decade.

According to data from the Grok platform, these addresses concentrate more than $2.21 million each at the current price, which shows strong backing from significant capital. The phenomenon also includes "sharks," accounts that hold between 100,000 and one million XRP.$XRP
