Last week, the stablecoin ecosystem experienced new growth — a net increase of approximately 850 million in total supply, with market performance showing typical characteristics of stable operation. Ethereum's dominant position in the stablecoin sector remains solid, continuing to attract institutional capital as the largest supporting chain; the Solana ecosystem also demonstrated strong competitiveness.

The recent growth was mainly driven by two synergistic factors: first, the continuous influx of institutional-level liquidity; second, the gradual improvement of global regulatory attitudes. The combination of these two factors has injected more certainty into the stablecoin market. Although market volatility always exists, the value of stablecoins as cross-chain settlement tools is increasingly recognized by more participants.

ETH-1,47%

SOL-2,95%

Stablecoins have risen again and again, but can this growth really continue? Institutional entry, regulatory friendliness sounds good, but from my ten-plus years of crypto trading experience... haha, whether you believe it or not, I don't really buy it. --- 8.5 billion net increase? That number sounds pretty big, but compared to the entire crypto market cap, it still feels like a drop in the bucket. ETH is still dominating, SOL is chasing from behind, nothing new. --- Institutional liquidity, regulatory friendliness... this familiar line of reasoning. They said the same thing last year, and look what happened. --- Is the value of cross-chain settlement tools just going to be recognized like this? I just want to know when the big players will finally start pouring real money in. --- Wake up, everyone. Don't be blinded by these numbers. Fluctuations always exist; they're just giving you a warning.

850 million in supplies are in place, and ETH's booster remains steady and powerful. Are we about to moon? Institutional liquidity + regulatory friendliness, dual engines ignited, and the stablecoin track is getting more crowded. Sol is watching closely from the side, but ETH's position is still solid. Short-term, there's no sign of being surpassed. Regulatory attitude shifts, and I immediately experience a dopamine surge. This is the certainty the market needs most. Stablecoins are the glue for cross-chain interoperability. The tighter the bond, the more vibrant the ecosystem, and the profit-making effect follows. This steady growth is more comfortable than those rapid spikes and crashes. Wait, could this be institutions laying out their positions before a bottom-fishing move? I'm a bit skeptical. Institutional entry with friendly regulation looks promising, but is the underlying really that stable? Recently, SOL has been active frequently. Don't be blinded by ETH's brilliance. Excited about a supply of 8.5 billion? Is this number really significant in the eyes of institutions? Cross-chain settlement value is recognized, but the real application scenarios are still being refined.

85 million net increase? This is a real signal that institutions have truly arrived. Ethereum's seat is firmly secured.
