Shiba Inu wallet count rose by 3,464 in June, holders reach a record 1,590,266

3,464 new addresses added in June

According to data monitored by Etherscan’s SHIB tracker, a total of 3,464 new addresses holding Shiba Inu have been created since the start of June. With these additions, the total number of on-chain SHIB holders reached 1,590,266 as of June 19. Etherscan, widely used in the crypto community, is known for tracking transactions and wallet activity on the Ethereum blockchain.

As of June 19, 2026, the number of on-chain SHIB holders stood at 1,590,266. So far in June, there have been 3,464 new holders added.

This increase highlights continued new user engagement in the Shiba Inu ecosystem. That such growth occurred in a period without a strong price rebound makes the rise in address count all the more noteworthy.

Community grows as price stagnates

Throughout June, SHIB’s price has come under sustained pressure. The asset slid to a local low of $0.00000433 on June 6 before attempting a brief recovery toward $0.0000052, which proved unsustainable. At the time this report was prepared, SHIB was trading at $0.000004662.

Over the past 24 hours, SHIB’s price declined by 2.01%, while its weekly loss deepened to roughly 6.5%. During the same period, its 24-hour trading volume registered at $45.32 million, and its market capitalization was recorded at $2.75 billion. These figures underscore that SHIB’s short-term price action remains under pressure, even as the community base continues to expand.

Macroeconomic factors fuel market volatility

The recent turbulence in the cryptocurrency market has impacted many assets, including SHIB. Uncertainty following the US Federal Reserve’s policy meeting prompted divergent expectations, fueling increased sell pressure towards the end of last week. Liquidations of leveraged positions also intensified the swings across digital assets.

Although a brief rebound occurred over the weekend, fresh economic data from the US failed to fully dissipate the prevailing pressure. For the week ending June 13, initial jobless claims came in at 226,000, just above the projected 225,000 level, adding a further layer of economic uncertainty for investors.

The main question remains on price

The rise in wallet numbers suggests that participation on the Shiba Inu network continues to outpace exits. However, an expanding holder base does not necessarily translate into upward price movement on its own. While on-chain metrics highlight sustained ecosystem growth, the market at large has yet to establish a clear direction.

In the near term, market observers are paying close attention to whether growth in the number of SHIB holders will eventually impact the asset’s price. For now, the disconnect between robust on-chain development and ongoing market pressure is a key point of interest among both traders and the wider community.
