Coinbase rises to third place on the XRP billionaire ranking
Bijie.com news: Coinbase has risen to third place on the XRP billionaire ranking, due to XRPSCAN updating wallet information. XRPSCAN states that Coinbase did not acquire 5.5 billion XRP; instead, it ranked third by tagging 146 existing wallets. Although Coinbase appears to have added more than 5.5 billion XRP in a short period, this increase was not the result of a purchase or new transfers. Rather, 146 previously unrecognized Coinbase wallets were identified, causing the existing XRP balance to move from “unknown” into Coinbase’s combined total. After the update, Coinbase is associated with about 5.68 billion XRP across 152 accounts. XRPSCAN warns that the balances of major exchanges typically reflect the concentration of customers’ funds. Therefore, Coinbase’s ranking should be interpreted as its footprint of XRP custody, not as the investments it owns.
