XRP Holder Count Hits Record 7.7 Million as Price Tests $1.60 Resistance

The XRP Ledger, or XRPL, is a Ripple-backed blockchain network focused primarily on cross-border payments, asset issuance and decentralized trading. The pace of wallet creation can indicate onchain participation, but a single address does not necessarily represent one new user, so the figure must be assessed alongside trading volume and active addresses. Whether the network’s expansion in 2026 can translate into demand for XRP has become a key focus for the market.

The latest data showed that the XRP Ledger added about 4,300 wallets in 24 hours, its fourth-largest one-day increase of 2026 and a sign of a short-term pickup in onchain activity. XRP, however, has yet to break through key resistance at $1.40. If buying and trading volume fail to persist, the market expects the price could remain rangebound for an extended period, with onchain growth yet to produce a clear rally.

XRP is the native cryptoasset of the Ripple ecosystem and the XRP Ledger, and changes in the number of wallets holding the token are often used to gauge capital flows. The continued rise in addresses holding more than 10,000 XRP suggests that large holders are accumulating during a period of price consolidation, making $1.50 a key resistance level for the next trend.

The latest data show that the number of addresses holding more than 10,000 XRP has reached an all-time high of 332,000. The XRP Ledger also processed a record 71 million transactions in April. Analysts say a decisive break above $1.50 could put XRP on course to target $2 in the next phase.
