The stablecoin market share of Solana has exploded in the last year, going from 1.2% to over 32%. Solana stablecoin activity has surged 650% since it started going up in October 2023. With $317 billion in stablecoin transfers this month, <a href="https://thenewscrypto.com/ethereum-dips-below-2500-will-eth-fall-more/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Ethereum</a> has a market share of almost 33% and leads the industry. But Solana is making up ground quickly.
With $240 billion in stablecoin transactions this month, Tron is the third biggest blockchain. The weekly stablecoin volumes across all networks hit an annual high, according to Artemis on January 16th. It said that the increase was due to the number of USDC transfers on Solana.
The regulated stablecoin USDP, developed by <a href="https://paxos.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Paxos</a> and released on the Solana blockchain, was officially launched on January 18th. Stablecoins were moved across all blockchains to the tune of almost $1.18 trillion in the last year.
Moreover, the total value locked (TVL) on Solana has reached its highest point since September 2022, at $1.36 billion, because of an increase in both stablecoin volumes and decentralized finance activities, according to <a href="https://defillama.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">DefiLlama</a>.
