The stable coin supply growth on Tron coincides with an increase in transaction volume, which has grown by 5.1% over the past 30 days and 158% year-over-year to $58.75 billion. Other chains such as Ethereum and BNB Chain have seen increases of 103% and 46.5% year-on-year respectively. Stablecoin transaction volumes on Solana have dropped by 75% over the same period.
