List of the richest Ethereum (ETH) addresses

An evaluation of the top 10 Ethereum addresses containing the most currencies reveals that 6 of them belong to the exchanges.

Top 1 is a smart contract address belonging to Wrapped Ether, a system that allows easy exchanges between ETH and other tokens. This address has over 2 million ETH, for a current value of about $ 380 million.

Binance in 2nd place in the top 10 Ethereum addresses

In second place, with just under 2 million ETH, it is one of the accounts used by Binance, one of the largest crypto exchanges in the world. Binance has several such addresses because it is risky to store all cryptocurrencies in one address.

In third place is another exchange, Bitfinex, which has just under 2 million ETH (about 370 million dollars).

Kraken, for example, has 2 accounts in the top 10, totaling more than 2 million ETH. Huobi has about 850,000 ETH in one of its accounts, while Gemini has just over 800,000 ETH.

In short, 6 of the top 10 most valuable addresses belong to exchange platforms.

From the category of non-exchange addresses, the 5th place in the ranking is occupied by another smart contract created by an Ethereum developer. The smart contract is designed to allow multiple signatures.

In the last place with 127 million dollars

The latest in the ranking is a new account, which recently received 700,000 ETH from Bittrex, which may mean that it may belong to this exchange.

It is interesting to note that in the top 9 is the account belonging to Plus Token. This was a scam that convinced over 1 million people to transfer ETH in exchange for a non-existent token.
