Hard Fact: Hege Holders Have Diamond Hands
Despite the grueling bear market, long term $HEGE holders still show high conviction. Welcome to This Week in $HEGE!
For the week of February 16–22, 2026.
GM Hegends!
This week we’re diving into some hard data about $HEGE holders. Are they really so loyal and diamond handed as we want to believe they are?
The short answer is: Yes, they are!
@fr33nino had a look at the data. Let’s dive in and see what he found.
The Top 250 $HEGE Holders are 81% Diamond Handed
First off, let’s have a look at the top 250 $HEGE holders.
Out of the top 250 holders, 81% are diamond handed, together controlling 73% of the supply. (And this is even after removing the big CEX wallets from the calculation.)
A diamond hand is defined here as a holder who held for 90 days or more. But in fact, most $HEGE diamond hands have held A LOT longer than that, as the average time held for the top 250 wallets is 356 days.
This shows that despite the brutal bear market, Hege has a core community of loyal holders who still believe in the project. They’re weathering the storm, waiting for the market to turn.
A Wide Distribution Means Supply is Spread Across Many Whales
But only looking at the top holders data doesn’t tell the whole story. In a healthy holder base, the tokens must also be well distributed, with supply spread over many different holders.
$HEGE has a distribution score of 3.00, a HHI of 59, and the median holder is ranked at #69.
Are these numbers any good? Yes, we think they are. In fact, they’re better than many of the popular big memecoins, including SPX6900, PEPE, GIGA, and MOG (just to mention a few).
This Data Shows That Long Term Holders Still Believe in $HEGE
So what’s the story all this data is telling us?
@fr33nino has this to say:
In my opinion, what we see here is long term holders still believing in the project and slowly DCAing in to secure supply (and profit) while we wait for the markets to turn.
This might seem obvious, but the community buying this low does not only show great conviction, it also secures us a steadier price action and healthier profit taking during the reversal. Nobody holding, buying, working, supporting, enduring for a whole year would dump on this project for cheeseburger money on the way to ATH.
This is crucially important especially during (and after) a bear market, where scared investors are only looking for a quick way out. This is our safe haven. The Hege-fund.
Well said!
Coming Up Ahead
Leaving the data behind and looking ahead to the week to come, rumor has it that not only will the remastered website go live this week, but the brand new Hege Merch Store is also ready to launch! Stay tuned.

— Team Hege
