Large XRP Holder Count Hits 2,147, a 2026 Record, as Price Struggles

The number of XRP wallets holding one million tokens or more has climbed to 2,147, marking the highest reading recorded so far in 2026. The milestone was reported by Bitcoin.com News, Coinpedia, and CryptoBriefing, each citing on-chain data tracking large XRP holders. The increase stands out because it arrived during a period of price weakness for XRP. Typically, large holder counts and price strength move in the same direction, since rising prices often reflect growing demand from both retail and institutional buyers.
