XRP Holding Distribution
The 5 million addresses collectively hold 99,988,008,711 XRP tokens. However, 40,508,410,417 tokens are currently in escrow. This leaves a circulating supply of 59,467,607,004 XRP tokens with a market cap of $30.97 billion.
A large portion of the tokens are concentrated in a few addresses. Ripple controls eight escrow accounts holding 40.5 billion XRP (46.5% of total supply), while they also own 4.5 billion spendable XRP tokens.
Price Rally Imminent?
This milestone reflects growth in the XRP ecosystem and could lead to higher demand for XRP, potentially impacting its price positively. Currently trading at $0.5714, an increase in adoption could propel XRP to reach $1 this year. With a bullish sentiment in the wider crypto market, XRP may even surpass its all-time high of $3.84.
According to a Wall Street expert, XRP has a promising future and meets the criteria for a good investment.
