The updated XRP rich list highlights how entry thresholds for different holder tiers have changed since 2013.
Changing Entry Thresholds for Top Holders
Data reveals significant shifts in entry thresholds for top XRP holders. In 2013, one needed just 50,025 XRP to be in the top 1%, costing $750 when XRP was priced at $0.015. By September 2025, the same amount will cost $141,071 with XRP at $2.82.
Costs for Different Holder Levels
In 2013, entering the top 10% required 2,396 XRP, costing $36, which will increase to $6,757 by 2025. To reach the top 0.10%, one must hold at least 350,491 XRP, initially costing $5,257 in 2013, but will reach $988,385 by 2025.
Future Projections
A hypothetical scenario where XRP hits $10 indicates that the top 0.01% balance would be valued at $66,925,870, and the 1% threshold would equal $500,250. These figures illustrate how dramatically the market has shifted over recent years.
The updated information on XRP holder thresholds highlights the sharp increase in entry requirements, potentially making it challenging for new investors to enter the market.
