Stablecoin Inflows Surge on Solana
The post Stablecoin Inflows Surge on Solana appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
In the past week, Solana (SOL) has witnessed a significant rise in the inflow of stablecoins, with a remarkable $424.87 million increase in USDT and USDC holdings. This surge underscores the growing dominance of Solana as a blockchain network for stablecoin transactions, cementing its position as a leader in the sector. The increase is particularly notable when compared to other blockchains, highlighting Solana’s strength in attracting liquidity.
