Unlabeled Wallet Holds 1,801,172,630 (1.801 Billion) $XRP, Ranks Among Top 10 Accounts.

An $XRP Ledger wallet holding approximately 1.801 billion $XRP ranks eighth in a September 24 rich-list snapshot published by $XRP Tools using XRPSCAN data. It is the only address in that top ten without a named exchange or corporate label.

An unlabeled $XRP Ledger wallet holds approximately 1.801 billion $XRP, ranking eighth in the September 24, 2026 rich-list snapshot. The balance represents about 1.80% of $XRP’s 100 billion maximum supply, placing the address between Bithumb and Binance in the ranking.

The address, rJ9Ey7HbscSECamgDRzvw5wrVbFUgaUDt7, has a recorded balance of 1,801,172,630 $XRP on Bithomp. That holding represents approximately 1.8% of $XRP’s 100 billion maximum supply.

However, the absence of an ownership label does not establish that the wallet belongs to an individual. Bithomp’s account profile does not identify a named owner, leaving its classification as a personal, corporate, or custodial account unconfirmed.

Wallet Sits Between Bithumb and Binance Addresses

The September 24 snapshot places a Bithumb-labeled address seventh, with approximately 1.815 billion $XRP, immediately above the unlabeled wallet. A Binance-labeled account follows in ninth position with approximately 1.578 billion $XRP, while an Upbit address ranks tenth with 1.381 billion $XRP.

The first six positions belong to Ripple-labeled accounts, each listed with approximately 5 billion $XRP. Consequently, the top ten consist of six Ripple accounts, three exchange-labeled addresses, and one unlabeled wallet—not nine exchange accounts and a confirmed individual holder.

Account Was Activated With 10 $XRP

Bithomp records show that the wallet was activated on December 1, 2024, through a payment of 10 $XRP from the address beginning rLD5k3 and ending HjRViQ. The activation transaction was confirmed in ledger 92,485,979.

The same funding address subsequently sent 35.2 million $XRP to the wallet on April 20, 2026. Transaction metadata records the recipient’s balance increasing from approximately 994.3 million $XRP to 1.0295 billion $XRP following that payment. The transaction carried a network fee of 0.000015 $XRP.

These records establish the funding relationship between the addresses, but not a shared owner. $XRP Ledger documentation specifies that funding an account does not confer control over it. It also notes that exchanges can hold customers’ $XRP in shared accounts, meaning address-level balances should not automatically be interpreted as one person’s holdings.
