Onchain records confirm 500 million USDC from Circle
A September 19 report described a combined $750 million stablecoin injection into Solana, attributing $500 million to Tether and $250 million to Circle. The linked evidence tells a different story.
The underlying transaction coverage said Circle completed two 250 million USDC mints within roughly 40 minutes. Solana’s transaction records confirm both transfers.
