1 in every 10 Dogecoin millionaires has disappeared in 2026

3 min read

Dogecoin (DOGE) has lost nearly one-tenth of its millionaire holders in the opening weeks of 2026, coinciding with price weakness for the meme cryptocurrency.

Blockchain data from the Dogecoin Rich List shows that on January 1, 2026, reviewed by Finbold with the help of the Wayback Machine, there were 1,052 Dogecoin millionaire addresses, defined as wallets holding at least $1 million worth of DOGE.

That total comprised 889 addresses with holdings valued between $1 million and $9.99 million, alongside 163 wallets holding more than $10 million.

By February 2, 2026, the number of millionaire addresses had fallen to 950, with 800 wallets in the $1 million to $9.99 million range and 150 addresses above $10 million.

The decline of 102 millionaire wallets in just over one month represents a 9.7% drop, meaning roughly one in every ten Dogecoin millionaires disappeared over that period.

The contraction closely mirrors Dogecoin’s price weakness early this year, as the token has failed to sustain momentum amid broader risk-off conditions in crypto markets. In this context, DOGE has dropped nearly 15% year to date, trading at $0.11 as of press time.

Dogecoin’s 2026 struggles

With Dogecoin lacking a hard supply cap and continuing to issue new coins, sustained price appreciation has proven difficult during periods of fading speculative demand. 

Notably, Dogecoin’s lack of real-world utility continues to drive investors away, as capital shifts toward cryptocurrencies offering staking, lending, or more robust ecosystems rather than relying on meme-driven hype. 

Its inflationary supply, with unlimited new coins minted via mining, exerts constant downward pressure, diluting value when demand weakens. 

At the same time, the waning influence of early boosters such as Elon Musk has also played a role, with recent mentions failing to spark significant rallies and leaving DOGE vulnerable to fading sentiment. 

Broader market dynamics have amplified the pressure, as a crypto-wide downturn driven by macroeconomic headwinds, including U.S. interest rate concerns, regulatory uncertainty, geopolitical risks, and reduced ETF inflows, has weighed on risk assets. 

Overall, meme coins like DOGE tend to suffer disproportionately in such environments. 

While some on-chain data shows accumulation during the dip, hinting at potential stabilization if key support around $0.10 holds, bearish technical signals and shrinking trading volumes suggest further downside risk, with some forecasts targeting the $0.05 to $0.08 range if momentum fails to reverse.

Bitcoin 8% Gains Already Make September 2025 Its Second Best

The post Bitcoin 8% Gains Already Make September 2025 Its Second Best appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Key points: Bitcoin is bucking seasonality trends by adding 8%, making this September its best since 2012. September 2025 would need to see 20% upside to become Bitcoin’s strongest ever. BTC price volatility is at levels rarely seen before in an unusual bull cycle. Bitcoin (BTC) has gained more this September than any year since 2012, a new bull market record. Historical price data from CoinGlass and BiTBO confirms that at 8%, Bitcoin’s September 2025 upside is its second-best ever. Bitcoin avoiding “Rektember” with 8% gains September is traditionally Bitcoin’s weakest month, with average losses of around 8%. BTC/USD monthly returns (screenshot). Source: CoinGlass This year, the stakes are high for BTC price seasonality, as historical patterns demand the next bull market peak and other risk assets set repeated new all-time highs. While both gold and the S&P 500 are in price discovery, BTC/USD has coiled throughout September after setting new highs of its own the month prior. Even at “just” 8%, however, this September’s performance is currently enough to make it Bitcoin’s strongest in 13 years. The only time that the ninth month of the year was more profitable for Bitcoin bulls was in 2012, when BTC/USD gained about 19.8%. Last year, upside topped out at 7.3%. BTC/USD monthly returns.
