A recent count shows shifts in the DONUT holder landscape as of August 1, 2025, revealing a decrease in Mainnet holders while Arbitrum sees an increase. This shift raises questions about trading patterns and overall market health.
Current Statistics
Recent figures indicate:
Ethereum Mainnet: 5,777 addresses holding DONUT
Arbitrum Network: 1,785 addresses holding DONUT
Total Transactions on Arbitrum: 18,615
That's a net decrease of 16 holders on the main network but an increase of 33 on Arbitrum. Also, we noted a surge of 1,167 additional transactions on Arbitrum.
"The increase of holders on Arbitrum reflects trading influence," commented one active participant.
Mainnet Decline and Arbitrum Focus
The decrease in DONUT addresses on Ethereum Mainnet appears tied to trading behaviors rather than an overall decrease in interest. "At least one whale withdrew liquidity, signaling caution," noted a market analyst.
Interestingly, many people are redirecting their trading focus toward Arbitrum. According to community members, the Arbitrum network is where new supply is minted, and it’s attracting attention from new traders.

Key Insights
📉 16 fewer holders on Ethereum Mainnet signifies concern over liquidity withdrawal
📈 Arbitrum sees +33 new addresses holding DONUT, indicating a shift in trader interest
⚡ 1,167 more transactions on Arbitrum show active trading within the growing ecosystem
In light of shifts in the holder distribution, the community’s focus on Arbitrum could have implications for the project’s future growth and accessibility. Curiously, will the increase in Arbitrum activity draw more eyes and wallets into DONUT trading?
Outlook on Arbitrum's Ascension
There’s a strong chance the trend of shifting interest toward Arbitrum will continue, potentially increasing participation in the DONUT ecosystem. Analysts suggest about a 70% probability that trading volume could rise further as people seek out new opportunities. If new projects continue to emerge on Arbitrum, we can expect at least another 20% growth in the number of holders on this network by the end of August 2025. Furthermore, as more people flock to Arbitrum, liquidity could stabilize, which may compel Mainnet holders to reconsider their strategies and engage with this developing market.
A Parallel in Crypto History
A fitting comparison can be drawn from Bitcoin's early days, when many investors shifted their focus from mining on traditional networks to newer, more efficient platforms. Just as miners once gravitated towards alternative blockchains to maximize their rewards, DONUT holders may now find that moving engagement to Arbitrum opens new avenues for growth. In that case, the movement led to enhanced transaction speeds and increased participation. Similarly, we may witness a thriving community around Arbitrum that grows to rival Ethereum, altering the dynamics of the entire crypto market.
