According to The Crypto Basic, citing analytics platform Santiment, 2,147 wallets currently hold at least one million XRP. The reported count is the highest reached in 2026, suggesting that large XRP holdings have become more concentrated across wallets during the period.

The Crypto Basic characterizes the increase in million-XRP wallets as a sign of a possible price recovery. That interpretation is based on the wallet-count milestone rather than a rise in XRP’s market price during the latest trading sessions.

The development comes amid a broader market backdrop of caution. The total crypto market capitalization stands at $2.6 trillion and is broadly flat, while Bitcoin is down 0.23% over 24 hours. The Fear & Greed Index reads 25, placing sentiment in the Extreme Fear zone.

XRP itself is priced at $1.16, with a market capitalization of $73.63 billion. It has fallen 1.41% over the past 24 hours and 7.39% over seven days, creating a mixed picture between the higher large-wallet count and recent price performance. Future changes in both the number of million-XRP wallets and the token’s price will provide the clearest view of whether the concentration trend persists.
