King Karan (@KingKaranCrypto), a popular crypto enthusiast, has shared an illustrative ranking that captured the XRP army’s attention. It shows what the world’s top 10 richest people would look like if XRP hit $10,000, and the numbers are hard to ignore.
Updated November 13, the graphic puts Ripple co-founder Chris Larsen at the top of the list by a margin that is almost difficult to process.
Larsen’s Position at the Top
Larsen co-founded Ripple in 2012 and remains one of the most prominent figures in the XRP ecosystem. He currently holds approximately 2.58 billion tokens across eight wallets. At $10,000 per token, King Karan’s graphic estimates his XRP holdings alone would be worth between $25 trillion and $30 trillion.
To put that in context, Elon Musk, the world’s richest man, currently sits at $894.3 billion. Larsen’s projected XRP wealth would be roughly 28 to 33 times larger. Jeff Bezos, ranked third at $385.3 billion, would trail Larsen by a factor of more than 65.

Reactions From the XRP Army
One user told King Karan to delete the post, jokingly dismissing the scenario as unrealistic. King Karan responded by saying “It’s just me showing what can happen,” positioning the graphic as illustrative rather than predictive.
Another commenter pushed back firmly, calling the scenario impossible and expressing frustration at what she described as delusional thinking within the crypto space. King Karan agreed, pointing out that this was the reason he posted the image.
One commenter raised a separate issue entirely. He suggested that wallet labels do not confirm ownership, arguing that much of what is attributed to Larsen may not belong to him personally, and that Larsen could simply be a manager or representative for the holdings.
Another took a more market-focused view. He noted that Larsen sold XRP at around $3 in a previous cycle and predicted he would sell again at $10 and $100, estimating that Larsen could reach $1 trillion in maximum net worth over time.
Where XRP Stands Now
The hypothetical feels distant given current conditions. XRP just fell below $1, hitting its lowest level since August. The token is down almost 15% in the past seven days and roughly 38% from its October high. Spot XRP ETFs are recording outflows, and the social sentiment is negative. While things may turn around, $10,000 still seems impossible to many in the community
