Is Shiba Inu gaining holders even as its price struggles?
SHIB added roughly 150,476 net addresses between the start of 2026 and Nov. 13, according to daily Etherscan-based holder tracking.
That puts its holder count at 1,699,106, just thousands short of 1.7 million.
The growth continued through months of price weakness. Many days saw hundreds of new addresses enter the count.
But there's a catch: holders aren't necessarily people. The figure includes exchange wallets, smart contracts and users with multiple addresses. Even wallets with tiny SHIB balances count.
More addresses don't automatically mean stronger demand, fresh capital or a price recovery.
Is SHIB's expanding holder base a sign of resilience, or is the market right to ignore it?
In 2015, AI hallucinating was the whole point. 🌀
This is DeepDream, running on VGG16. You hand a neural network an image and tell it to exaggerate whatever it thinks it sees. Then you make it do that over and over, each pass building on the last. 🔁
It finds eyes and creatures everywhere 👁️ because it learned to see from ImageNet, a dataset of 1,000 categories packed with animals (about 120 are dog breeds alone 🐕).
Ten years later, the same behavior has a less fun name: hallucination. And we spend a lot of engineering effort stopping it. 🛠️
Same thing underneath, just a different job.
