XRP mints 7,934 new wallets in a day, its sixth-best tally of 2026

XRP's network added 7,934 fresh wallets on Nov. 1, according to on-chain tracker Santiment. That single-day haul ranks as the sixth-highest daily total the coin has posted so far in 2026. The wallet surge landed while XRP's price hovered near $1.25.

Santiment flagged the number in a post on X, framing it as an update on the network's growth. New wallet creation is one of the simpler ways to gauge how many new addresses are showing up on a chain. A day that cracks a yearly top-10 list stands out because it means activity briefly ran hotter than almost any other date this year.

The timing is the interesting part. Wallet growth and price don't always move together, but a spike in fresh addresses while the token trades around $1.25 suggests new participants are poking around rather than existing holders reshuffling. Whether those wallets stick around is a different question than whether they were created.

There's no word from Santiment on what drove the Nov. 1 bump, and the post doesn't break down who opened the wallets or how much they hold. Wallet counts also can't separate genuine new users from addresses spun up for routine technical reasons. The sixth-highest tally of 2026 is the headline number, nothing more.

What happens next comes down to follow-through. If XRP keeps printing several thousand new wallets a day near $1.25, the trend line gets more convincing. If Nov. 1 turns out to be a one-off spike, it joins the pile of single-day anomalies. Either way, Santiment's data gives XRP watchers a concrete marker to track against the rest of the year.
