A recent analysis by YouTuber Levi explores the intriguing possibility of significant financial returns for holders of XRP, even with relatively modest holdings. This perspective hinges on two key factors: the unique distribution of XRP tokens and the promising growth trajectory of the XRP Ledger (XRPL).
XRPL on the Rise
Levi highlights the XRPL’s impressive growth, particularly the surge in daily transactions. This metric skyrocketed from an average of 257,000 to over 5.41 million earlier in 2024, signifying a growing appetite for utilizing the XRPL for various applications. Notably, decentralized finance (DeFi) and non-fungible tokens (NFTs) have emerged as prominent use cases.

Interestingly, unlike the broader NFT market slump plaguing other blockchains, the XRPL has witnessed a rise in NFT transactions. Levi highlighted 35,000 NFT sales on the XRPL in April, exceeding January’s impressive figure of 43,000. This development is similar to the decline observed in Ethereum, the current leader in the NFT space.
Furthermore, Levi emphasizes the burgeoning ecosystem on the XRPL, evidenced by the creation of new tokens and meme coins like the Gensler SEC token. Some of these tokens have garnered significant market capitalization, potentially driving further activity and user adoption on the XRPL.
A Look at XRP Token Distribution
Shifting focus to the XRP, Levi delves into the distribution statistics, revealing a fascinating trend. Data from Santiment indicates a massive influx of new XRP holders in 2024, bringing the total to over 5.19 million at the time of writing. Remarkably, roughly 90% of these accounts hold between 0 and 500 XRP.
This distribution pattern suggests that holding as little as 1,000 XRP positions an individual within the top 10% of XRP holders. Levi further highlights that accumulating between 50,000 and 75,000 XRP grants one “mega whale” status, a category encompassing a mere 26,000 accounts, according to Rich-list.info.
Potential Rewards and Investment Considerations
The significance of this distribution pattern lies in the potential for substantial financial returns with even modest holdings. Levi underscores that reaching certain price targets for XRP could significantly transform these holdings.
For instance, if XRP were to reach $100, a holding of 1,000 XRP would translate to $100,000. Analyst Javon Marks even proposes a possibility of $200 per XRP, a staggering $200,000 for a 1,000 XRP holding.

Given the sustained growth of the XRPL and XRP, Levi suggests that acquiring XRP now, while prices remain accessible, could position investors favorably compared to most holders. Notably, achieving millionaire status through XRP might be a realistic goal for those accumulating tens of thousands of tokens.
However, it’s crucial to acknowledge the inherent uncertainty associated with projected growth. Investors should conduct thorough research and due diligence before making any investment decisions.
