XRP has been drawing fresh attention to its on-chain wealth concentration patterns. Currently trading above the $2 mark, the token's distribution tells an interesting story.



The top 10 wallet holders control roughly 18% of XRP's total supply, while wallets ranked 10 through 50 account for an additional 25%. What makes this setup particularly stable is Ripple's escrow mechanism—a deliberate structure designed to ensure predictable token release over time, reducing sudden supply shocks.

With price holding above $2, the market structure appears constructive. This price level combined with the known supply dynamics creates a framework that institutional and retail participants can actually plan around. The concentration metrics, far from being alarming, align with how major blockchain projects typically develop their early investor base.

For traders and holders, the takeaway is straightforward: XRP's on-chain fundamentals support the current price action.

Wow, the escrow mechanism is really well-designed. This is true anti-dumping protection.

Nah, this escrow mechanism is really impressive, much more reliable than those coins that suddenly dump.

XRP's concentration isn't really that scary. The escrow mechanism is designed to prevent market dumps. The fact that only 43% is controlled by the top 50 indicates that the distribution is actually quite dispersed.

ngl the escrow mechanism is doing heavy lifting here... but 18% in top 10 wallets? that's not exactly inspiring decentralization theater, tbh
