The data, shared by ETF analyst James Seyffart on X, shows institutional investors building meaningful positions even as the token’s price cooled from recent highs.
Goldman Sachs leads the list with $87.4 million in exposure, equivalent to about 84 million XRP.
Jane Street Group ranks second with roughly $16.6 million, or just under 16 million tokens. Millennium Management follows closely with $16.2 million in holdings, representing approximately 15.5 million XRP.

Investment advisors accounted for the largest share at $120.9 million. Hedge fund managers held $25.1 million, brokerages $17.9 million, and banks $14.8 million.
Other names appearing in the filings include Intesa Sanpaolo with $14.4 million and Marex UK Holdings with $8.1 million.
