In the ever-evolving landscape of cryptocurrency, where tokens serve as the building blocks of a new financial paradigm, the hierarchy of holdings has always been a subject of interest.
In the ever-evolving landscape of cryptocurrency, where tokens serve as the building blocks of a new financial paradigm, the hierarchy of holdings has always been a subject of interest.
Recently, prominent X (formerly Twitter) user and crypto enthusiast JackTheRippler took this observation to a lighthearted extreme with his post about the “XRP Ranking Ladder 2025.”
The post began with a playful categorization of XRP holders based on the number of tokens they possess, ranging from the highest tier of “Big Whale,” defined as someone holding over 100,000 XRP, to the lowest rank of “Worm,” for those with as little as 1 XRP.
“The #XRP Ranking Ladder 2025:
? Big Whale = +100,000 XRP ? Whale = +50,000 XRP? Shark = +10,000 XRP ? Dolphin = +5,000 XRP? Fish = +1,000 XRP? Octopus = +500 XRP? Crab = +200 XRP ? Shrimp = +100 XRP ? Worm = + 1 XRP
? Big Whale = +100,000 XRP ? Whale = +50,000 XRP? Shark = +10,000 XRP ? Dolphin = +5,000 XRP? Fish = +1,000 XRP? Octopus = +500 XRP? Crab = +200 XRP ? Shrimp = +100 XRP ? Worm = + 1 XRP
Are you a worm??”
This playful take on the hierarchy in crypto, shot through with self-deprecating humor as he asks, “Are you a worm??” invites a lighthearted challenge or reflection for readers to assess their own holdings relative to the grand scale.
The ranking categories are as follows: a “Big Whale” holds more than 100,000 XRP, a “Whale” has more than 50,000, a “Shark” owns over 10,000, a “Dolphin” holds over 5,000, a “Fish” possesses more than 1,000, an “Octopus” keeps over 500, a “Crab” has over 200, a “Shrimp” holds over 100, and a “Worm” owns just 1 XRP or more.
At present, XRP is valued at $2.11 per token according to CoinMarketCap, and using this rate to convert the tier boundaries into USD would yield the following:
A “Big Whale” with 100,000 XRP would have over $211,000. A “Whale” holding 50,000 XRP would possess approximately $105,500, while a “Shark” with 10,000 XRP would control around $21,100.
A “Dolphin” keeping 5,000 XRP has $10,550, and a “Fish” with 1,000 XRP has about $2,110. Those in the lower tiers, such as an “Octopus” (500 XRP), “Crab” (200 XRP), “Shrimp” (100 XRP), and “Worm” (1 XRP), would correspond to holdings of $1,055, $422, $211, and $2.11 respectively.
The tweet by JackTheRippler offers more than just a humorous classification; it presents a moment-in-time reflection of the XRP community’s mindset during a period of price growth.
With XRP priced at over $2.00 in early May 2025, the conversation around who holds what—and how much—indicates both individual aspirations and a broader collective narrative. While some embrace the ladder as a fun way to engage with the market, others emphasize solidarity and belief in the project’s long-term goals, irrespective of wallet size.
