The milestone matters less for its headline figure than for what it reveals about stablecoins' role: they are functioning as settlement rails for card payments, not just trading collateral. That shift touches card networks, issuers and merchants who now indirectly touch on-chain liquidity, and it puts stablecoin issuers in a position where payment flow, not just trading volume, shapes their relevance. Whether this spending mix stays concentrated in the two dominant dollar tokens, or broadens as more cards launch, is the open question worth watching.
