When was the last time you did an analysis of the distribution of #XRP on the #XRPLedger?
How and where can you even do that?
And can you do it yourself at all?
I'm happy to show and I've also worked up the data (visually) directly.

Next, for those who might not know, @xrpscan (xrpscan.com) and @bithomp (bithomp.com) are excellent blockchain explorers (and more) for the #XRPL!
Hearty shout out to the teams of both services whose provided data I used.
3|
And also to @WietseWind with whose help the easy creation of the pure data of the #XRPL was possible at all (for me) as well as to @Ripple and its operation of the "S1" server (s1.ripple.com) from which I extracted the data of the XRPLedger for this.

Source: @WietseWind had a service 1-2 years ago that displayed a rich list for the XRPL (ledger.exposed).
But he has stopped this service for reasons you can read there.
So there was no possibility to access a rich-list fast/easy anymore but he kindly put ...
5|
...the source-code for it on GitHub (github.com/WietseWind/xrp…) publicly.
With this it is possible to create a rich-list which as a final result creates a .json file which looks like this:
6|
A file that is 271.3MB small with all addresses/wallets (="a") on the XRPL and its XRP holdings (="b").
Running additional code from Wietse, it is possible to get another .json file with the following content:
7|
From which the following list can be created:
8|
So far - so good 🥳 !
Now one or the other of you may be like me a friend of visual representation, here you search unsuccessfully (at least as far as I know).
That's why I migrated the data into Excel and prepared it accordingly and would like to show you my results...

First of all the basic data:
For this the Ledger (Ledger index): 76,688,291
on which the following number of wallets exist (accounts): 4,512,186
It is dated from (Ledger close time): 2022-Dec-26 | (10:59:32UTC)
10|
Accordingly, the holdings of XRP at the time were as follows:
11|
That there is a maximum of 100,000,000,000 #XRP's should be known,
but why does it say "Total XRP existing:": 99,989,171,380.91 XRPs instead?
This is because XRPs are burned during transactions (xrpl.org/transaction-co…).
...
12|
...It is therefore easy to calculate back or on xrpscan.com (@xrpscan) there is also always the current number (top right corner)
13|
Now comes a correspondingly visually prepared table of the rich list of the #XRPL with different categories (oriented to Wietse's data) as well as two "Doughnut"-charts:
14|
...and accordingly a visual resolution to the question "How much XRP to be in the top _%"?
15|
Now follows the list of all wallets (>minimum of 1,000 #XRP) according to their:
-Placement (Number),
-Wallet address,
-Balance (XRP),
-Name (if available, data from xrpscan.com),
-Activated,
-Last time active (send),
-Comments (for wallets > 100,000,000 #XRP)
16|
Comments are my very own by a viewing of the respective wallets and their behavior.
It is of course difficult to summarize in words what happened on the respective wallet but serves at least once, in addition to the other data, as a rough orientation...
17|
A few examples that have particularly caught my eye:

I hope you enjoyed this tread, feel free to comment what you think.
Maybe @bob_way could give a few"insights"or additional informations to some wallets(some were created maaany years ago)😁.
Also curious if @HammerToe have some additional infos maybe..
Iam curious if anybody know a answer to my question...
The upcoming (EVM)Sidechain on the #XRPLedger uses Tendermint as a consensus mechanism and uses Proof of Stake (PoS)...
So the EVM-Sidechain needs PoS-Validators and Delegators... it).
…

…
but on the most PoS-Chains, unfortunately, there is always 3-5 TOP Validators which mostly together account for more than 50% of the Stake...
Is it possible to define an max limit(in %) that can be delegated to a validator? And would that be something from which…
…
3|6
…
the decentralization grad on the EVM-Sidechain could benefit? (And so the XRPL)
I mean, I could well imagine that if e.g. #Ripple provides a PoS validator, that's exactly where a large part of people will delegate their #XRP’s (eXRPs) to.
