ETH Rich List: Top Ethereum Addresses by Balance

Which Ethereum addresses hold the most ETH right now?

The Ethereum addresses holding the most ETH: what kind of address each one is, who it belongs to where known and how its balance moved.

About

What it answers, and for whom.

This table ranks the Ethereum addresses that hold the most ETH, read with eth_getBalance at a pinned block. Each row says what kind of address it is (a plain account, a contract or a delegated smart account) and who it belongs to where a public source supports a label, so the list explains itself instead of showing bare addresses.

The largest balances rarely belong to individuals. The beacon chain deposit contract holds every ether ever deposited for staking; wrapped ether sits in the WETH contract; exchanges, bridges and funds hold coins on behalf of many people. Filter by category to separate them, and read the 30-day change to see which balances are moving.

Method

How it will be measured.

Every figure will be read at a block, kept with its source and its exact read, and open a receipt anyone can re-check.

How receipts work →
  1. Balances are eth_getBalance for each candidate address at the last block of the day, converted from wei to ETH and kept exact.
  2. Candidates are every address whose balance, rebuilt from value transfers in traces, withdrawals and fee payments, could place it on the list, so no large holder is missed between pins.
  3. Address type comes from eth_getCode: no code means a plain account, the EIP-7702 delegation prefix marks a delegated account and any other code is a contract.
  4. Labels such as exchange, bridge, staking or fund come from public sources recorded with each label; an address with no supported label stays unlabelled.
  5. Share of supply divides each balance by total ETH supply at the same block.

Questions

Questions people ask.

Who owns the most ETH?

The largest balances belong to contracts and institutions more than to individuals: the beacon chain deposit contract, the WETH contract, exchange wallets, bridges and funds. The table shows the order at the pinned block, with each address's label and its source.

Why is the beacon deposit contract on the list?

Every validator deposit sends ETH to that contract, and the contract has no way to send it back out; withdrawals are paid by the consensus layer instead. Its balance therefore records all ETH ever deposited for staking, not ETH anyone can spend from it.

Does one address mean one owner?

No. An exchange wallet holds coins for many customers; a fund can spread its holdings over many addresses; a contract can belong to a protocol. Labels say what is publicly known about each address; a large balance here is not a measure of who owns ether.

How often is the ETH rich list updated?

Balances are pinned once a day at the day's last block, and each row's 30-day change compares the address with its own balance thirty days earlier.

Can I find out who owns an unlabelled address?

Not from this table. An address is labelled only where a public source, such as an exchange's published reserve addresses or a protocol's documentation, supports it; unlabelled addresses stay unlabelled rather than guessed.

Beacon deposit contract
The Ethereum contract that receives validator deposits. It holds all ETH ever deposited for staking and cannot send it back out.
EOA
An externally owned account: an address controlled by a private key, with no contract code.
WETH
Wrapped ether, an ERC-20 token backed one-to-one by ETH held in the WETH contract.
