Solana is flipping the stablecoin volume script. It's now pushing more weekly volume than Ethereum — with 10x less supply sitting on-chain. That's velocity, not just hype.
Real-World Assets tell the same story. $ETH's RWA base dropped 10.6% over the last 30 days. Solana's climbed 27.9% in the same window. One's contracting, the other's expanding.
Ethereum still holds a 5x lead in total stablecoin supply. But size without momentum is just inertia. The growth is happening elsewhere.
This matters for cycle positioning. Mid-to-late cycle, capital flows to where activity is highest and fees are lowest. Solana's winning that trade right now. If you're rotating into alts or hunting DeFi plays, follow the volume and the RWA inflows — not legacy narratives.
Ethereum isn't dead. But it's not leading this lap.
