> **Visual Note:** The image is a table titled "Main stablecoins with the largest supply reductions (burns/redemptions)," listing USDC (~$5–7B decline), USDT (~$4–6B), USDe (~$2B), USDS (~$2B), and PYUSD (~$1–1.2B), along with their primary drivers such as DeFi collateral cooling, MiCA-related delistings, yield compression, and savings rate cuts. This breakdown directly supports the post's claim that the stablecoin market cap shrank from $322B to $305.6B, showing that the decline was concentrated in these five issuers—Circle, Tether, Ethena, MakerDAO, and PayPal.

> **Visual Note:** A Castle Labs chart tracking "MegaUSD Supply" from January to August 2026 shows circulating supply spiking to roughly $600M in April 2026 before collapsing to around $18M by July, visualizing the post's claim that USDm (MegaETH's stablecoin) lost 95% of its value in three months after subsidies ended and users exited.

> "MegaETH's stablecoin USDm  
Supply shrank from 600 million to 18 million  
95% evaporated in three months  

Star L2 teamed up with Ethena and even took on BlackRock's BUIDL for reserves  
The setup is downright luxurious  

But users voted with their feet  
Subsidies stopped,"
