However, amidst the celebration of the 5 million holder milestone, studies shed light on the concentration of Dogecoin ownership. BitInfoCharts data underscores that a striking 88.09% of $DOGE’s total supply is concentrated among merely 4,716 addresses. This concentration highlights a significant level of wealth centralization within the Dogecoin ecosystem.
Further analysis reveals that less than 15% of holders currently possess a staggering 99.72% of the total Dogecoin supply, indicating a substantial concentration of wealth among a select group of holders. CoinGecko data reports Dogecoin’s circulating supply at 142 billion.
While Dogecoin’s achievement of 5 million holders demonstrates its widespread appeal and adoption, the coin’s wealth distribution raises questions about its decentralization and the potential impact of concentrated holdings on its market dynamics. Investors and enthusiasts closely monitor such metrics to gain insights into the resilience and stability of Dogecoin as it continues to navigate the dynamics of the crypto market.
