Solana Surpasses 6 Million Monthly USDC Senders
Solana has surpassed all other blockchains in monthly USDC senders, reaching approximately 6 million. This milestone marks a significant increase from late 2023, when the sender count was less than one-tenth of its current level.
The growth can be attributed to the network's sustained climb, which has turned Solana into the closest thing crypto has to a mainstream payments network. In February 2026, stablecoin transaction volume on Solana hit $650 billion, a record for any blockchain within a single calendar month.
The USDC supply held by the network is estimated to be between $8 billion and $12 billion, supported by continuous minting operations that keep liquidity deep and user confidence stable. Weekly transaction counts on Solana have crossed 1 billion, underscoring that the 6 million sender figure is not an artifact of a few whales moving large sums.
The use cases driving this volume are notably mundane, in the best possible way. Salary disbursements, peer-to-peer transfers, and retail payments account for a meaningful share of activity.
