On-chain data indicates that multiple XRPL wallets have remained dormant, holding on to what appears to be their reserve XRP despite recent changes. Notably, Dr. Artur Kirjakulov, co-founder and CEO of XRPL resource XPMarket, called attention to this stat in a recent disclosure, triggering questions among market participants.  592,818 XRPL Wallets Hold 10 XRP Data from XRPL Stats, an XRPL-native analytics platform, confirms the disclosure. According to XRPL Stats, there are about 6,991,542 XRPL wallets at press time. Interestingly, this shows an impressive increase in the number of wallets on the network, which stood at 5,815,583 as of Dec. 31, 2024. XRPL Wallets XRPLStatsXRPL Wallets | XRPL Stats The current figure indicates that the XRP Ledger has welcomed over 1.175 million wallets so far this year, marking a growth rate that has outpaced previous periods. Notably, the mainstream adoption of XRP this year, involving multiple ETF filings, rising company treasuries, and inclusion in the U.S. crypto stockpile, has contributed to this wallet growth. Meanwhile, of the current 6.991 million figure, data shows that exactly 592,818 XRPL wallets, representing 8.47% of the total, hold 10 XRP each as their balance. This represents the mode balance, which translates to the most common balance occurring on the network. According to Kirjakulov, this unusual shared balance across nearly 600,000 wallets indicates that most of these wallets have remained dormant over the years. Specifically, this could suggest that network participants activated these XRPL wallets with the previous reserve fee and abandoned or kept them aside. XRPL Reserve Fee For context, the XRPL demands a minimum reserve balance for activating accounts, a measure for curbing spam. Originally, this figure was 20 XRP, but it dropped to 10 XRP in September 2021. However, amid the rise in XRP's price from November 2024, validators voted to reduce the fee to 1 XRP by December 2024. Nonetheless, most of the nearly 600,000 XRPL wallets holding 10 XRP likely sprang up before December 2024, when the reserve fee stood at 10 XRP. If the owners of these wallets revisit them, they could withdraw 9 XRP, currently worth $25.47, leaving the new 1 XRP reserve fee. Meanwhile, Kirjakulov revealed that the next mode balance sits at 20 XRP, representing the original reserve fee. Specifically, around 560,000 XRPL wallets hold 20 XRP, which may have been activated before September 2021, when the account reserve demanded a minimum of 20 XRP tokens. Besides this, the XRPL also features other interesting stats. Notably, the 6.991 million wallets hold a total of 64.72 billion XRP, with the highest single balance standing at 1.69 billion XRP. Further, of this figure, 33,311, representing about 0.48%, are large holders.

Music body ICMP laments “wilful” theft of artists’ work

The post Music body ICMP laments “wilful” theft of artists’ work appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. A major music industry group, ICMP, has lamented the use of artists’ work by AI companies, calling them guilty of “wilful” copyright infringement, as the battle between the tech firms and the arts industry continues. The Brussels-based group known as the International Confederation of Music Publishers (ICMP) comprises major record labels and other music industry professionals. Their voice adds to many others within the arts industry that have expressed displeasure at AI firms for using their creative work to train their systems without permission. ICMP accuses AI firms of deliberate copyright infringement ICMP director general John Phelan told AFP that big tech firms and AI-specific companies were involved in what he termed “the largest copyright infringement exercise that has been seen.” He cited the likes of OpenAI, Suno, Udio, and Mistral as some of the culprits. The ICMP carried out an investigation for nearly two years to ascertain how generative AI firms were using material by creatives to enrich themselves. The Brussels-based group is one of a number of industry bodies that span across news media and publishing to target the fast-growing AI sector over its use of content without paying any royalties. Suno and Udio, who are AI music generators, can produce tracks with voices, melodies, and musical styles that echo those of the original artists such as the Beatles, Depeche Mode, Mariah Carey, and the Beach boys. “What is legal or illegal is how the technologies are used. That means the corporate decisions made by the chief executives of companies matter immensely and should comply with the law,” Phelan told AFP. “What we see is they are engaged in wilful, commercial-scale copyright infringement.” Phelan. In June last year, a US trade group, the Recording Industry Association of America, filed a lawsuit against Suno and Udio. However, an exception…
