Below is information about the list of wealthy XRP holders in August 2025, based on provided news sources:
The XRP Rich List for August 2025 shows that the threshold for ranking among the wealthiest XRP holders has decreased. With the current XRP price at $2.91, owning tokens worth less than $7,000 is enough to enter the top 10% of the richest XRP addresses.
To be in the top 10%, a wallet needs to hold approximately 2,396 XRP, equivalent to about $6,973.90. Although the number of participants and the retail ownership base are increasing, this threshold has decreased in August.
There are currently about 6.6 million XRP wallets globally, but fewer than one million wallets hold more than 2,300 XRP. As of August 2025, the top 10% group has over 690,000 active wallets, a number that continues to rise as more investors participate. A report on August 4 indicated there were 679,990 accounts in the top 10%, which has now increased to 690,984, with over 11,000 new wallets entering this group.
In 2024, Ripple founders like Chris Larsen and Brad Garlinghouse, along with major exchanges such as Binance, Uphold, and Bitbank, continued to dominate the list of XRP wealth.
