Summary: The DANE domain count is now 2,303,613
Most of the increase from last month can be credited to argewebhosting.nl (~150k domains). Thank you argewebhosting.nl.
On a smaller scale, but also notable, dfn.de enabled DANE SMTP for their own domain and a number of affiliated research insitutitions (34 domains in all). Thanks also to dnf.de.
The number of domains that return DNSSEC-validated replies in response to MX queries is 12,743,720. Thus DANE TLSA is deployed on ~18.07% of domains with DNSSEC.
Speaking of stats, you can now qiery the survey's view of your (DNSSEC-signed) via the "Explore" button at:

The site makes no live queries, it shows the status of a domain during the most recent daily survey run.
Please be mindful of the upcoming Let's Encrypt Issuer CA switch from X3/X4 to R3/R4 and E1/E2. See:

Credits: The coverage of DNSSEC domains continues to improve with ongoing data support from Paul Vixie of Farsight Security. Credits also due to ICANN for gTLD data via CZDS, and to the TLD registries for .CH, .COM, .DK, .FR, .INFO, .IS, .LI, .NL, .NU, .ORG and .SE. More data sources of ccTLD signed delegations welcome.
As of today I count 2,303,613 domains with correct SMTP DANE TLSA records at every primary MX host that accepts connections[1]. As expected, the bulk of the DANE domains are hosted by the DNS/email hosting providers who've enabled DANE support for the customer domains they host. The top 20 MX host providers by domain count are below.

The real numbers are surely larger, because I don't have access to the full zone data for most ccTLDs, especially .no/.cz/.de/.eu/.be. Speaking of countries, the IPv4 GeoIP distribution of DANE-enabled MX hosts shows the below top 20 countries (each unique IP address is counted, so multi-homed MX hosts are perhaps somewhat over-represented).

There are 6220 unique zones in which the underlying MX hosts are found, this counts each of the above providers as just one zone, so is a measure of the breadth of adoption in terms of organizations deploying DANE SMTP.
The number of published MX host TLSA RRsets found is 9296. These cover 10309 distinct MX hosts (some MX hosts share the same TLSA records through CNAMEs).
The number of DANE domains that at some point were listed in Gmail's email transparency report is 395 (this is my ad-hoc criterion for a domain being a large-enough actively used email domain). Of these, 193 are in recent (last 90 days of) reports:

Of the ~2.3 million domains, 13780 have "partial" TLSA records, that cover only a subset of the (secondary) MX hosts. While this protects traffic to some of the MX hosts, such domains are still vulnerable to the usual active attacks via the remaining MX hosts.
The number of domains with incorrect TLSA records or failure to advertise STARTTLS (even though TLSA records are published) stands today at 706. Some of these have additional MX hosts that don't have broken TLSA records, so mail can still arrive via the remaining MX hosts.
To avoid email outages, please make sure to monitor the validity of your own TLSA records, and implement a reliable key rotation procedure. See:

After eliminating parked domains that do not accept email, the number of "real" email domains with bad DNSSEC support stands at 1331. The top 15 name server operators with problem domains are:

If anyone has good contacts at some of these providers, please encourage them to remediate not only the broken domains (I can send them a list), but also the root cause that makes the breakage possible.
Seven of the domains all whose nameservers have broken denial of existence appear in the last 120 days of Google transparency reports:
