The report also pointed to a significant increase in stablecoin supply, which jumped from $138 billion to $225 billion within a year, a 63% rise. Monthly transfer volume more than doubled, hitting $4.1 trillion in February 2025 compared to $1.9 trillion the year before, with a peak of $5.1 trillion in December 2024. These numbers paint a picture of growth and diversification. While average transaction sizes stayed relatively stable, occasional spikes suggested large-scale institutional activity. The dual use case, for both retail and whales, has made stablecoins a flexible tool in modern finance. Solana, Tron, and the Global Surge Zooming out, the broader blockchain growth tells a story of rapid development and regional adoption. Following the November U.S. presidential election, Donald Trump’s pro-crypto stance revived investor enthusiasm, and stablecoin deposits surged across several ecosystems. Solana, in particular, witnessed a wave of inflows, with over $1 billion in USDC deposits recorded in December 2024 alone . Solana’s total value locked (TVL) reached $8.57 billion by January 2025, marking a sixfold increase since the beginning of 2024. Tron, meanwhile, stole the spotlight in February 2025 with a staggering $824.5 million increase in stablecoin reserves in just one week. @trondao leads stablecoin inflows with an $824M surge in USDT and USDC, while Avalanche and TON see major outflows. #Tron #Stablecoins #USDT #USDC https://t.co/CSbCYL4d3z — Cryptonews.com (@cryptonews) February 24, 2025 Its dominance in emerging markets, low fees, and strong presence in payment infrastructure have made it a preferred network for USDT transactions. Other Ethereum-compatible chains, such as Base, Polygon, and Optimism, also posted stablecoin inflows. Conversely, Avalanche and TON faced significant losses, $506 million and $280 million in stablecoins, respectively. Despite its foundational role in DeFi, Ethereum saw a $208 million outflow during the same period, hinting at liquidity rotation toward more agile or cost-effective networks. For this month, SUI seems to be the leading blockchain. $SUI saw the highest stablecoin inflows among all blockchains, with an increase of $18.1 million in the last 24 hours. pic.twitter.com/x0PxGo1owa — ToreroRomero (@Torero_Romero) April 15, 2025 The most telling thing is the increasing reliance on stablecoins in emerging markets. Chainalysis and Visa-backed research data indicate stablecoins outpacing Bitcoin in key regions like Africa, Latin America, and Southeast Asia. In these areas, stablecoins are used for savings, remittances, and business transactions in countries grappling with currency devaluation and unstable financial systems. A survey conducted in Nigeria, Indonesia, Turkey, Brazil, and India found that stablecoins are central to financial inclusion.
