Looking at the flashy $865 million in revenue for $USDC this quarter, I almost thought the market had really exploded. 🤯

I got excited and jumped in with the money flow, but when I sat down to break down the numbers, I was stunned. 📉

Turns out nearly $182 million of it came from token presale revenue $ARC , not core revenue. ⚡

Subtract that, and actual revenue is still down year over year, even though trading volume $SOL or $ARC remains high. 💔

Expanding usage is one thing, but turning it into sustainable profits is a major challenge. 👀
