Circle 的 USDC 穩定幣流通供應量超過 50B 美元，但仍低於 ATH

Circle 的美元硬幣（USDC）實現了一個重要的里程碑，其流通量三年來首次超過 500 億美元。

Stablecoin issuer Circle Technologies’ USD Coin (USDC) has reached a new milestone with its circulating supply surpassing $50 billion for the first time in three years.

穩定幣發行商 Circle Technologies 的美元硬幣 (USDC) 達到了一個新的里程碑，其流通量三年來首次超過 500 億美元。

According to data from DeFiLlama, USDC's supply reached approximately $51 billion on Jan. 22, showing a remarkable recovery from its 2023 low of less than $24 billion.

根據 DeFiLlama 的數據，1 月 22 日，USDC 的供應量達到約 510 億美元，較 2023 年不足 240 億美元的低點顯著復甦。

This marks a significant achievement for the stablecoin, which has seen its supply grow rapidly since its launch in 2018. However, USDC's circulating supply is still about 10% lower than its all-time high of $55.9 billion, which was recorded in mid-2022.

這標誌著穩定幣的一項重大成就，自 2018 年推出以來，穩定幣的供應量迅速增長。 。

notably, the distribution of USDC across blockchain networks has also undergone significant changes over the past three years.

值得注意的是，過去三年 USDC 在區塊鏈網路上的分佈也發生了重大變化。

While Ethereum still plays a major role, its share of USDC's supply has decreased from 85% to 61%. In contrast, Solana's share has increased to 16% from less than 3%.

雖然以太坊仍然發揮著重要作用，但其在 USDC 供應量中的份額已從 85% 下降至 61%。相比之下，Solana 的份額從不到 3% 增加到了 16%。

This shift in distribution can be attributed to traders' preference for Solana's lower transaction costs, especially for speculative trades involving memecoins and AI-related tokens.

這種分佈的轉變可以歸因於交易者對 Solana 較低交易成本的偏好，尤其是涉及 memecoin 和 AI 相關代幣的投機交易。

Moreover, the launch of new blockchain platforms, such as the Coinbase-backed Base, an Ethereum layer-2 network solution, and Layer 1 networks like Hyperliquid, have also contributed to this trend.

此外，新區塊鏈平台的推出，例如 Coinbase 支援的 Base、以太坊第 2 層網絡解決方案以及 Hyperliquid 等第 1 層網絡，也推動了這一趨勢。

These platforms offer faster and more cost-efficient alternatives, catering to users' demands for efficient trading solutions.

這些平台提供更快、更具成本效益的替代方案，滿足用戶對高效交易解決方案的需求。
