Circle Mints About $750 Million in USDC on Solana in 24 Hours

Circle minted approximately $750 million in USDC on Solana over the 24 hours through Oct. 15, marking a large issuance of the dollar-pegged stablecoin on the network. The reported total covers a single 24-hour period and gives the mint’s value in U.S. dollars. Circle issues USDC, which is designed to stay pegged to the dollar. The mint took place on Solana, specifying where the tokens were created rather than describing activity across all blockchains. Solana also surpassed 420 million transactions this month. That count measures transaction activity on the network, while the $750 million figure measures the value of USDC minted. The two figures describe separate forms of activity and do not establish a direct link between Solana’s overall transaction count and the USDC issuance.
