XRP Wallets Reach a Record 8.24 Million, Santiment Data Shows

8.24 Million Non-Empty Wallets

XRP's ledger now holds 8.24 million non-empty crypto wallets, the largest holder count the network has recorded, per Santiment's on-chain record. Adoption has kept pace through months of choppy trading. The latest daily reading logged 4,772 new wallets in a single day, the fifth-largest spike since March, and the wider count has risen steadily even as the token has fallen. Santiment tracks network growth as the number of new wallets created per day, which is why the daily figure matters to its read. One caveat applies to the headline number: each entry is a wallet address rather than a person, and a single user or venue can control many of them, so the metric measures how widely the asset is spread rather than a headcount of buyers.

The XRP price has yet to reward that growth. The token lost 17.21% of its value over the past month and printed $1.31 in early Friday trading, down 2.59% across the previous day; our live feed now shows it near $1.32. For readers weighing an entry at that level, our guide to where and how to buy XRP covers the basics. Santiment frames $1.30 as the line that decides the signal: a drop below it would weaken the adoption case, particularly if daily new wallets fall under roughly 3,000. The upside runs through $1.40, where the firm wrote that a sustained break, with network growth holding near or above 4,000 daily wallets, would make a quick return to $1.50 more than plausible. When the reading was published, XRP sat less than 1% above the lower line and about 7% below the upper one. The coming days of wallet data may show which line gives way first.

$112.4 Million of Whale Deposits to Binance

Large holders have been pulling in the opposite direction. In the altcoin market, deposits to a centralized exchange are read as a bearish tell, and whale wallets sent $112.4 million worth of XRP to Binance in recent days, the heaviest such flow in seven months. On-chain analyst Darkfost, whose deposit figures we also covered in a separate read on 7-month-high whale inflows, treats the move as rising selling pressure. Deposits do not guarantee immediate sales, since coins can sit on a venue for weeks, but a flow of this size puts fresh supply where sellers can reach it quickly.

Spot XRP ETFs tell a calmer story. The funds took in $4.25 million this week per SoSoValue's flow tracker, after a $1.84 million outflow the previous week ended 13 straight weeks of net inflows. The rebound is small next to September. The past four weeks produced $18.5 million combined, while the week ending September 25 alone drew $75.6 million. Total net assets track what the funds hold at market prices, so a falling price drags them down even without redemptions. With cumulative inflows nearly flat, net assets have slid to $1.49 billion from $1.77 billion on September 25. The cooldown has not erased the longer record, which had built cumulative net inflows of $1.8 billion before this soft patch.

Our composite support and resistance scoring puts the strongest floor at $1.2793, rated 100 out of 100, and the nearest firm ceiling at $1.3529, rated 94; spot sits between the two near $1.32, up 0.5% since the Santiment reading and down 1.7% over 24 hours. Momentum is soft: the relative strength index reads 42.84 and the trend label is a downtrend. Perpetual funding runs at 0.0013% and the long/short account ratio stands at 3.99, so the crowded long book would feel any clean break of $1.28. For the current level to keep its place between the two lines, daily new wallets need to hold near the 4,000 mark and ETF inflows need to keep their positive turn; a fuller map of the levels sits in our XRP technical analysis.
