Circle's treasury removed roughly $100.15 million in stablecoins from circulation in another routine supply adjustment The USDC Treasury burned 100 million USDC on November 2, 2026, according to blockchain tracker Whale Alert. The burn took place on the Solana blockchain. Whale Alert flagged it as it happened. Circle, the company behind USDC, destroyed 100 million tokens held in its treasury.
