> **Visual Note:** A stacked area chart titled "USDC dominates onchain lending" shows total stablecoin deposits (USDC, USDT, USDs, sUSDe) on lending platforms across all chains from April 2020 to August 2026, with USDC reaching $51.6B of $22.7B total (note: likely $227B), peaking near $40B in late 2025 before declining into 2026. The chart supports the post's bullish $CRCL thesis by visually demonstrating USDC's overwhelming market share dominance in onchain lending, which counters the "stablecoin economics aren't viable" consensus the author argues is wrong.

 is up 28% from the bottom and i think it continues to outperform from here

there are two consensus views that are wildly off and the market is finally starting to realize it:

1. the first is that stablecoin economics aren't viable because issuers will continue leaking"

This is starting to remind me of the setup I saw in 
$MRVL
 before the move.

I’m seeing clear strength building across crypto, and if 
$BTC
 keeps showing strength, I expect 
$CRCL
 to make a serious run over the next few weeks.

One thing though:"
