USDC Treasury Mints 250M USDC on Solana

Fresh minting on Solana is a supply-side signal rather than a demand metric on its own: treasury issuance typically follows or anticipates redemption and settlement flows, so the notable part is where the liquidity is landing, not the headline figure. Solana's role as a venue for high-throughput stablecoin transfers keeps expanding relative to its earlier reputation as a retail trading chain, which matters for payment and RWA settlement routes that need cheap finality. Whether this supply stays resident on Solana or is bridged out is the open question worth watching.
