Whale watchWhat counts as a whale eventThree kinds of moves get listed here: (1) really big XRP transfers (the size cutoff is set just below), (2) anything touching a wallet we recognize — exchanges, big projects, public companies — that's also above the same size cutoff (token amounts get priced into XRP first), and (3) when one of those recognized wallets opens a trustline to a brand-new token (no size filter — opening a trustline is the signal itself).

Large XRP transfers and any activity by accounts we recognize. The watchlist is hand-curated and public — see about for sourcing.

watchlist sizeWhat's the watchlistA list of XRP wallets we've identified by hand — major exchanges (Bitstamp, Bitso, Bitrue), the Ripple co-founders, big project treasuries. We figured out each one by cross-checking what the wallet owner has publicly announced. When one of these moves money it shows up here, even small amounts, because it tells you what the big players are doing.
sizeWhat 'size' tiers meanChoose how big a transfer has to be to count. A whale is 100,000 XRP or more — a good default for catching coordinated activity. 1M XRP is a blue whale — rare and almost always worth knowing about. 50K shows everything we track, useful on quiet days. Recognized-wallet moves are held to the same size cutoff (token amounts get priced into XRP first); only new-trustline events bypass it. blue whale · ≥1M XRP whale · ≥100K XRP all · ≥50K XRP

How this works: a long-running process subscribes to every validated XRPL transaction and records two things — XRP transfers above the floor (set by the size pill), and any transaction that touches an address on our public watchlist.

The size pills above filter large XRP transfers by magnitude — whale (≥100K XRP) is the definition used across the site; blue whale (≥1M) narrows to the rare ones; all (≥50K) widens the lens. Tagged and watchlisted activity is held to the same size cutoff as everything else — only new-trustline events bypass it, because the who makes those the signal.

The watchlist combines 74 hand-curated first-party entries (sourced from disclosures like Ripple's xrp-ledger.toml) with a broader reference layer drawn from public lists (XRPSCAN well-known names, derived AMM pool and MPT issuer labels). Curated labels take priority; reference labels fill the rest. Each label is shown with its source so you can tell which is which.

All addresses shown are public on the XRP Ledger by design — they appear in every block explorer (XRPSCAN, Bithomp). No private information is surfaced.
