Santiment data shows wallets holding at least 10,000 XRP kept climbing even as the token slid roughly 30% in seven weeks XRP ’s price has spent the past seven weeks heading in one direction, and it isn’t up. Yet the number of wallets holding at least 10,000 XRP has quietly kept rising. On-chain analytics firm Santiment reports that these mid-to-large holder addresses grew by 16,815 over the past nine months. That’s a 5.15% increase, bringing the total to approximately 343,500 as of November 11, 2026. The timing is what makes it interesting.
