TREE NEWS reports: Unique wallets sending peer-to-peer stablecoin transactions in China grew 43-fold between Q1 2024 and Q2 2026, Chainalysis data shows. The growth reflects a shift in Chinese crypto activity toward direct wallet-to-wallet transfers rather than centralized platforms, even as the country’s crypto restrictions remain in place.

The significance is less the headline growth figure than the migration it describes: activity moving from platforms that can be monitored or blocked to wallet-to-wallet rails that leave no central chokepoint. That shifts the compliance burden toward on-chain analytics rather than venue-level oversight, and it matters for counterparties and intermediaries exposed to Chinese flows. Whether this wallet growth reflects genuinely new demand or the same users fragmenting across more addresses is the open question, as is whether enforcement attention follows the volume.
