The original Ship picture: green, purple, and yellow sails, a bear in the crow's nest, a king on an iceberg, an owl on the bow.

Marks in the Ship picture.

Eight things the XRP forums keep pointing at. On a wide screen the pins sit on the chart. The names work on any screen. Every note is a community reading.

Left side of the Ship picture. Black cloud, lightning. The right side is already clear.

A story split. Not XRP’s supply.

One million, only so the Ship picture can be argued in shares. This is not XRP’s escrow, not a cap table, and not a path to 589. The number in the riddles stays a mark.

The log stays closed. The shares below are a way to talk about the picture, not a mint.
Folklore split of an imagined one million. Not XRP’s supply and not an allocation.
BerthShareOf one millionWhat the telling says
Storm side28%280,000The half of the Ship picture still in weather. A share of the story, not a tranche of XRP.
The ice22%220,000The king on the berg. Counted here so the argument has a number. He is not a balance sheet.
Clear water30%300,000The sun side the glass points at. The largest share, because that is where the forums keep pointing.
Owl's watch12%120,000The watcher on the bow. Small, and argued over more than the rest.
The 589 mark8%80,000The number cut into the stone in the moon picture. A mark in the series. This row does not pay it.

Imagined supply, 1,000,000, for the argument only. XRP’s own supply is a different book. Nothing in this table is offered or redeemable.
