TREE NEWS update: SoFiUSD, the bank-issued stablecoin from SoFi, went live on Polygon, adding the network alongside Ethereum and Solana for the firm’s more than 17 million members. The expansion gives SoFi’s users another chain on which to access the stablecoin. SoFiUSD is issued by a bank, distinguishing it from many stablecoins in circulation.
SoFiUSD Stablecoin Goes Live on Polygon, Expanding Beyond Ethereum and Solana
The notable detail is the issuer profile rather than the chain count: a bank-issued stablecoin reaching a large existing member base is a different distribution model from the crypto-native stablecoins that dominate circulation. Multi-chain support matters less as a technical milestone than as a signal that SoFi wants the token usable wherever its members already are. Whether a bank-issued token can translate a mainstream user base into genuine on-chain usage, rather than staying a closed-loop product, is the open question worth watching.
