Supply grew beyond USDC

See whether crypto's digital dollars are growing, who controls them, where they sit and which large coins are slipping from $1.

Supply rose $3.1bn in 30 days. Remove USDC, the biggest contributor, and the tracked total still rises +0.4%. Across 49 large coins, more rose than fell.

Is new money entering?

Supply shows how many digital dollars exist. It does not show whether that money was spent on Bitcoin, lent out or left idle.

More digital dollars exist. Supply changed -0.1% in seven days and +1.0% in 30 days.

Was the move broad?

22 rose. 16 fell. 11 barely moved.

This covers 49 coins with at least $100mn now or a month ago. 1 new large coin has no clean month comparison.

Who controls the cash?

A growing market can still depend on very few companies. This is issued supply, not a measure of reserves or revenue.

Where does the money sit?

Network balance tells us where stablecoins are held. It does not tell us how much was paid, traded or borrowed there.

Ethereum holds 47% of the network balance shown.

Are large coins still close to $1?

Only coins designed to stay at one dollar are checked. Large means at least $1bn in supply. Coins whose price rises as they earn income are left out.

No large fixed-dollar coin is outside the watch line. The largest fixed-dollar coins are within 0.5% of $1 in this price check. That is calm, not a promise of redemption.

What is supposed to hold the dollar value?

Backing type is the issuer's broad design. It is not a live check of bank cash, Treasury holdings, collateral quality or redemption speed.

The label tells us how a coin is meant to work. It does not prove the money is there when everyone wants out.

What could make the calm picture wrong?

One issuer still matters most

USDT and USDC hold 83% of supply. A problem at either company would matter more than a problem at most smaller coins.

Network balance is not use

Ethereum holds 47% of the stablecoins assigned to the networks shown. This is money sitting there, not payment or trading activity.

A market price is not a redemption test

A coin can trade near $1 while withdrawals are slow, restricted or dependent on a small group of banks and market makers.

What should we watch next?

Watch whether the next 30-day move still survives without USDC, and whether the rise reaches more than 22 large coins.
