Circle mints 5 billion USDC on Solana in one week

BIG: Circle has minted 5 billion USDC on Solana over the past week.
The scale of issuance highlights growing stablecoin activity across the Solana ecosystem.
Large USDC mints do not necessarily mean all of the capital immediately enters the market, but they can signal rising demand for stablecoin liquidity and settlement capacity.
For $SOL, expanding stablecoin supply remains an important metric to watch as onchain activity grows.
