According to on-chain data statistics, the number of SHIB holder addresses has surpassed 1.55 million. More notably, in just the first 10 days of 2026, over 2,300 new holder addresses were added.

There is an interesting story behind these numbers. The on-chain address count is just a reference metric—the actual number of people participating in SHIB is much larger than this statistic. Each address could represent a wallet, an exchange account, or institutional holdings, so the true number of retail and institutional investors is significantly higher.

From a trend perspective, the number of holders is steadily increasing, and the bottom support level has been consistently rising. This indicates that the market is accumulating strength, neither experiencing a large-scale exit nor a frantic influx, but rather a relatively balanced entry pace. With this solid foundation, once there is a catalyst in market sentiment or fundamentals, the rebound momentum could be quite substantial.
