🚨 XRP Millionaire Wallets Reach Highest Count Of 2026
🐋 XRP now has 2,147 wallets holding at least 1M tokens, the highest count of 2026. That group has grown by 28 wallets in just 10 days, including 18 additions to the +1M+ ’XRP Holders Club’ in the past 3 days alone.

The group gained 28 wallets over the past 10 days. Eighteen of those came in the final three days. That means the recent additions made up nearly two-thirds of the total increase.
Santiment said large holders tend to have longer time horizons than short-term traders. The firm read the growth during price weakness as a sign that big balances are being built. It said stronger confirmation depends on a price recovery.
A similar pattern showed up in August. Million-token XRP wallets rose by 32 over three months while the token’s market cap fell 29%. The new data covers a shorter period but shows faster growth.
Santiment also reported 7,934 new XRP wallets created on Nov. 1. That was the sixth-highest daily total of 2026. The measure counts new addresses of all balance sizes.
What the Address Data Shows
Santiment’s method counts distinct addresses grouped by token balance. An address that crosses 1 million XRP adds to the count. One that falls below it lowers the count.
The figure tracks membership in a balance group, not buying volume. XRP Ledger accounts can also hold pooled exchange balances. So the address count does not show how many individual investors hold that much XRP.
Santiment said holding $1.20 to $1.25 while the count stays above 2,140 would keep the longer-term setup constructive. It said a reclaim of $1.30, then $1.40, with large-wallet numbers still rising, would give much stronger confirmation. The firm said that would show accumulation confirming each price rise.
In September, Santiment recorded 1,917 large XRP transactions as the token crossed $1.60. That measure tracked transfers above a dollar threshold. It is separate from the new balance-based count.
Analyst Ali Charts pointed to a different signal on the 4-hour chart. He said XRP’s Bollinger Bands are at their tightest since August. He also said price has pushed above the upper band, which may signal a bullish breakout.

“XRP IS BREAKING OUT!” Ali Charts wrote on X. He added that the last time the bands were this compressed on the 4-hour chart, XRP rallied nearly 71% in three days.
Daily Chart and Derivatives Data
Bollinger Bands measure volatility using a moving average and two outer bands. Tight bands point to lower volatility and consolidation. A squeeze alone does not show which way price will break.
The daily chart looks more cautious. TradingView data shows XRP below its 20-day, 50-day, 100-day and 200-day EMAs. Those sit at $1.3027, $1.3375, $1.3247 and $1.3640.
The $1.30 to $1.305 zone is the key near-term resistance. A sustained move above it could open a test of the $1.3247 to $1.3640 range. Resistance previously marked near $1.4852 sits beyond that.
On the downside, $1.2453 is the low of the latest daily candle. A drop below it could bring more selling pressure, with $1.20 the next area to watch. Volume was roughly 54.01 million XRP.
CoinGlass data shows open interest at about $2.9 billion as of Nov. 3. That is below the roughly $3.8 billion seen in late September. Open interest tracks the value of outstanding futures and perpetual contracts.
XRP was changing hands at $1.2757 at the time of writing, up 2.04% over 24 hours.
