Moneta’s USDM contributed approximately $13.5 million, while RealFi’s USDrf and Anzens’ USDA together made up the remaining smaller fractions of the stablecoin ecosystem.

Cardano’s native token, ADA, was trading at $0.221022, up 0.8% over the last 24 hours, suggesting modest positive sentiment that may be linked to the expanding stablecoin usage.

The growth in stablecoin volume indicates deeper liquidity and broader DeFi participation on Cardano, which could attract additional developers and users seeking a low‑fee, scalable environment.
