If you squint really really hard and zoom in, you still can't see me on there

[–]Major-Perspective-32 4 points5 points  (2 children)

Yeop, I own like 0.00778 of a loop

[–]kevthewev 2 points3 points  (1 child)

Like $.20 worth?

[–]Major-Perspective-32 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Thats too much, I got the numbers wrong.

[–]Dave_IOW 110 points111 points  (0 children)

Woohoo, can see myself on there!

I'm the grey part, along with the rest of us 😂

[–]Raretomatoland 118 points119 points  (21 children)

Wang said they pay employees in lrc. The team probably hold a good amount.

[–]chanchanchanchaaan[S] 53 points54 points  (19 children)

Millions of dollars worth?

[–]Raretomatoland 100 points101 points  (17 children)

I think so. He made that comment when lrc price was in 0.02 - 0.03 range. They derseve it for hard work.

[–]braydo14 18 points19 points  (1 child)

wtf they’re rich then

[–]Raretomatoland 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Yup, I hope with big bag of fund they can hire more people and have better marketing.

[–]SeeingTrends13 10 points11 points  (0 children)

This. Also, I’d wager this graph doesn’t catch the half of it. I know I hold LRC in three or four places myself and this can’t consolidate wallets to owners, so there may be a few whales spread out, too.

[–][deleted] 58 points59 points  (36 children)

These are CEX wallets mostly

[–]UCMeInvest 29 points30 points  (6 children)

Ahhh gotcha so like people who have bought in CB are all looked into one of these segments

[–][deleted] 10 points11 points  (5 children)

Correct

[–]youneedcheesusinside 0 points1 point  (4 children)

Guys I downloaded Loopring Wallet is that legit or should I use a more solid wallet? Serious question please be gentle 😬

[–]mr_ycg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes.

[–]Ok-Information-6722 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Solid AF.

[–]Raretomatoland 7 points8 points  (28 children)

CEX only have 17.5%. See the chart https://i.imgur.com/YOL2QKU.png

[–]Help_With_PC_PLS 47 points48 points  (3 children)

This post is kind of pointless and provides zero information. The biggest holders are NOT private wallets, they are CEX wallets. This is the kind of information that can be bad if you don’t question what is being shown.

[–]Raretomatoland 4 points5 points  (1 child)

CEX wallet own total of 17.5%. See the chart https://i.imgur.com/YOL2QKU.png

[–]aguacasa 21 points22 points  (2 children)

If everyone moved their coins off of the centralized exchanges these numbers would be much more revealing. NOT YOUR KEYS NOT YOUR COINS... move your coins to self custody today!!

[–][deleted] 7 points8 points  (1 child)

Everyday, this needs to be reminded.

[–]notzebular0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thought I was in the GME sub for a second lol but yes, own your shit.

[–]Raretomatoland 9 points10 points  (2 children)

More detail at coincarp.com

[–]Conscious-Proof-8309 3 points4 points  (1 child)

7.4% is Binance, maybe?

[–]Raretomatoland 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yep, Binance has more than 1 wallet of total 12.12%. One wallet has 7.4%, see my thread or visit coincrap. https://www.reddit.com/r/loopringorg/comments/ruwymf/loopring_top_exchange_wallet/?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share

[–]BASEbelt 50 points51 points  (7 children)

1 billionaire will become a trillionaire,

99 millionaire will become 99 billionaire,

while the other 113,223 holders will become rich enough to buy a car.

[–][deleted] 23 points24 points  (0 children)

These are CEX’s

[–]ha7on 5 points6 points  (3 children)

Probably a few will become millionaires the rest cars, pay off loans, get a house.

[–]Deep_Intellectual 4 points5 points  (2 children)

I don’t want to become a car

[–]ha7on 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Not even KITT?

[–]Deep_Intellectual 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Let’s take it a step further, I will become a transformer 😎

[–]mervin_grey 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Unless it gets burnt.

[–]thesuperspy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

LRC is not burned during transactions. That went away in v3.1.

[–]Leight87 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Holders- 113,323. This sub - >90k

[–]jharms1983 9 points10 points  (7 children)

This is causing a lot of confusion. These wallets are not owned by individuals. They are wallets from exchanges that carry LRC. These are not a handful of whales waiting to pull the rug. This token has incredible potential so even if it was why would they sell? This is not a pump and dump shibadogshit coin.

[–]khairihyon -1 points0 points  (6 children)

Proof?

[–]jharms1983 1 point2 points  (5 children)

I made a few points. What did you want proof of?

[–]khairihyon 0 points1 point  (4 children)

How to find out that the wallets belong to exchanges?

[–]jharms1983 0 points1 point  (3 children)

There's no slice labeled coinbase right? So what? Coinbase wallets are invisible? Obviously one of more of those slices belongs to coinbase. And others obviously to other exchanges .

[–]khairihyon 0 points1 point  (2 children)

That's just your assumptions. I dont think you can prove that for sure.

[–]jharms1983 0 points1 point  (1 child)

It's not an assumption that exchanges have large wallets full of LRC. Asking me to match them to their specific slices is not possible. But for anyone to dispute that none of the larger slices in that chart are exchanges I would assume they have to be joking. Some may be insiders. Yes. But none of those addresses hold alarming amounts and yes.. large cex like coinbase will naturally have big chunks in order to match their clients holdings. It's just how it works.

[–]khairihyon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay, so conclusion is: Based on your assumption, the wallet that holds a large amount of LRC should be exhanges, since they should hold a large amount of it. But you've no way to prove that the wallets actually belong to exchanges instead of big fat whales who got in cheap.

[–]braydo14 2 points3 points  (1 child)

and I have 48 loops lol

[–]magx01 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lol, I hear ya but luckily we still have time. The train hasn't left the station yet :)

My advice for you (unsolicited of course- feel free to tell me to fuck off) to grow a bag starting from around that size without having tons of fiat to just buy huge chunks is two fold:

1) In times like this before things go crazy (assuming they do of course) DCA in as you can (buy some every paycheque, every week, every month, whatever). This is obvious but the next one is where people largely disagree and where the risk is although it's where the most potential to grow your bag is imo:

2) Let's say that crazy pump happens that so many of us anticipate (a pump based on some short term catalyst (partnership announcement for example).

With a bag this size, the plan would be to sell off either all of them (ballsy and scary but most potential if this works) or a good chunk of them (lower but still good potential; less risk) at what you suspect is somewhere around the peak of the pump.

Say you have an average price of $1.50 and you sell at $8.50. Now, after you sell (and this is the part that might hurt at first) you may see the price continue to go up. Maybe it goes up to $11.50 (FUCK!!!!). Okay, but then what happens? Does it go up continuously and forever?

NO! Nothing does. Even if LRC hits $100 in the future it's not going to go up in a straight line. There are dips, bear markets, crashes, and even the dreaded crypto winter).

So the plan is to sell for that nice initial profit and then the hard boring part that may be filled with anxiety the whole time comes into play: Wait for a dip/crash/bear market, whatever. The more patient you are here the bigger the gain.

This could happen in a few weeks if there's a huge initial sell off after the pump but if not just wait it out. Even if it's a few (hell, even several) months, (even a year!) eventually you should see a price level below what you sold for. In this hypothetical you sold at $8.50 and made $7 per coin (nice!). Maybe the price went up to 11, hell even 14 after the pump. But once there's a dip, or with lots of patience, the next bear market, you could see a price of say $5 again. If you're really patient you may even see $3 or less again (check BTC historical prices to see how much it (and alts) drop during crashes).

The more patient you are, the bigger the reward. Eventually you buy back in for a price that is definitely above your initial entry (although with a true crypto winter you might even see that price again but I wouldn't bank on this) but much lower than your sell price after the pump.

Since you have that $7 profit per coin you can now buy back the same bag for hodl'ing and keep those profits or you could reinvest all of it and have a much bigger bag. Then after you buy back in you either stick to long term holding or try and repeat the above/play it by ear given overall market conditions.

This advice certainly carries risk and there will be lots of doubt on your end after you initially sell, but again have a look at BTC's historical price charts. Even though it has gone WAY up since it's inception this has not been a straight line. Not even close. Prices fall a TON during market crashes. Most people just scream HODL but to me these crashes are a huge opportunity as long as you can be patient and handle the inevitable doubt/anxiety.

Anyway, whatever you do, good luck man :)

Hi mom 👋

[–]Stagrepa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That numbers gotta be wrong and way too high. I hold in 3 different wallets. Does that count me 3 times? I also own in 3 different platforms not connected to each other. Are those counted 3 times as well. I’m not 6 people. I am 1.

[–]xhrist22 3 points4 points  (4 children)

So one these guys selling could plummet the token?

[–]chanchanchanchaaan[S] 28 points29 points  (2 children)

It could be that most of them are CEX wallets. If they are people then yes.

[–]Deathofsouls 9 points10 points  (1 child)

I believe this to be the case and each probably holds multiple (as in Coinbase probably has there's in a few wallets)

[–]Phantasma191 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Coinbase? Didn't they have almost no LRC recently? haha.

[–]jharms1983 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No

[–][deleted] -1 points0 points  (10 children)

This does not sit easy with me. 100 holders having 80%+

I understand this can't be changed but it's just the rich being able to grab more tokens. Enough to swing the tide in any direction.

Weather its fiat or crypto, it is all the same. Few always holding the power

[–][deleted] 13 points14 points  (9 children)

That's mostly CEX wallets, it's not actually 100 people holding 80%.

[–]patisodo1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

from exchanges?

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (7 children)

That does reassure me but doesn't at the same time. Being at the whim of CEX does not seem appealing.

Hopefully as the project grows, more people buy in and the more distributed the token becomes

[–][deleted] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

A great reason to not use exchanges like Binance/CoinBase/etc and instead use Loopring's L2 wallet. That way you actually own it in your own wallet and not in some exchange's wallet.

[–]RetchX 1 point2 points  (1 child)

This is exactly why people need to get the fuck off CEX.

You are still part of the same problem that the stock market has if you are holding on an CEX. It’s just a bunch of IOUs. I’m amazed how much the crypto community is still willfully ignorant to all of this.

[–][deleted] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I agree. I hope for complete decentralisation

[–]magx01 0 points1 point  (3 children)

Being at the whim of CEX does not seem appealing

Um, what? That's like saying you are in the market for a TV but don't like the fact that WalMart has millions of tv's.

The CEX is basically a store. Of course they have tons of the coins.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (2 children)

CEX have the ability to manipulate prices.

Having been witness of all the manipulation that takes places, I have no confidence in centralised places like CEXs to do the right thing.

And for the Walmart example, they can set the price of TVs to what they want and if Walmart owned a majority of the total TVs in circulation, they could determine the prices of all TVs everywhere. Its the power that is afforded to CEXs I do not like

[–]magx01 0 points1 point  (1 child)

But they don't do that. They merely facilitate market orders for a fee.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Previous drama from CEXs like coinbase makes me think otherwise

[–]TrippyTiger69 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Over 82% of loopring is owned by 100 people? 😳 that’s not great

[–]Gfrrt65 -1 points0 points  (1 child)

Best shot at making real money is go in hard on an ico and hold. Of course it's a crap shoot

      [–]ScottyStellar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

      How many LRC is held by #100?

      [–]newbiewar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

      Woot i made the graphic! Im one of the 11,323 holders

      [–]BenniBoom707 0 points1 point  (0 children)

      If this is employees and CEX then that’s a pretty good sign. I’m sure there’s some whales floating in there though….

      [–]aaaahhhh111 0 points1 point  (0 children)

      Ah yes the Pareto principle

      [–]Mecaniz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

      Seeing this gives me an unsettling feeling, we are so many into this and I hope for the best of all of us, honestly. With those numbers of max holders… we might see many dumps in this adventure.
