Solana stablecoin volume reaches $650B as total monthly volume approaches $2T across major blockchains, highlighting growth in transaction activity

Highlights

  • Solana stablecoins hit $650B as monthly volumes near $2T showing rapid growth across networks.
  • USDC minting and new stablecoins drive liquidity flows and boost Solana transaction activity.
  • Stablecoin volumes surpass gold futures as Solana records rising price and trading activity.

Solana stablecoin recorded a rise in activity as transaction volume reached $650 billion in February 2026. This move pushed total monthly stablecoin volume across networks close to $2 trillion. At the same time, Solana showed the fastest growth among major blockchain networks.

Solana Stablecoin Lead Growth as Volume Surges

Solana stablecoin nearly tripled month over month in February, marking a break from earlier trends. The network processed $650 billion in stablecoin transactions during the period. This figure places Solana among the highest contributors to overall market activity.

At the same time, according to an X post, the total stablecoin volume across all networks approached $2 trillion per month. This level builds throughout 2024. During that year, volumes ranged between $400 billion and $700 billion. However, momentum began to shift in mid-2025, when monthly totals moved above $800 billion.

From there, the pattern expanded further. By the end of 2025, the volume had reached above 1.2 trillion. The most recent figure, which is early 2026, was estimated to be between 1.8 trillion and 1.9 trillion.

Ethereum and Tron had the highest volume of activity across networks. Ethereum recorded continued and linear growth throughout the period. Tron, on the other hand, grew further in 2025.

Liquidity Flows and Stablecoin Issuance Accelerate Activity

The rise in Solana stablecoin also aligns with a series of large-scale liquidity transfers. Circle minted approximately $750 million USDC on Solana within a 24-hour period. This issuance added a fresh layer of dollar liquidity to an already active network.

Reports show that these mint events occurred in multiple phases. One update tracked $750 million minted within six hours. Another confirmed the same amount over a full day. Earlier in the year, similar issuance events occurred within minutes, showing repeated high-speed inflows.

This activity builds on a trend observed in January 2026. During that period, Circle, recently joined the Canton Network, issued $4.25 billion USDC on Solana over seven days.

Meanwhile, new stablecoin products added to transaction growth. Western Union introduced USDPT, while Jupiter released JUPUSD. This expansion increased the range of assets that circulated in the network. As a result, transaction volumes continued to rise along with increased usage.

In parallel, Ripple confirmed a partnership with Convera to expand stablecoin-enabled payments. Convera processes more than $170 billion in annual volume. Under the agreement, Ripple provides blockchain infrastructure for liquidity and settlement. In addition, Convera will handle payment flows for large clients, linking traditional systems with on-chain settlement.

Market Comparison and Solana Price Activity

As stablecoin activity surged, contrasts with traditional markets grew stronger. CME Group gold futures reached $208 billion per month. In contrast, stablecoin transaction volumes approached nearly nine times that level.

At the same time, Solana’s price activity displayed continuing market participation. At the time of writing, Solana traded at $83.84, posting a 1.005% gain over 24 hours. The asset declined to near $80 earlier in the session. However, it later reversed direction and formed a gradual upward trend.

Price movement also accompanied an increase in trading activity. The trading volume recorded an increase of 29.89% to $4.87 billion. This drove the volume-to-market cap ratio to 10.16%.
