According to EmberCN’s monitoring, after the market dropped tonight due to the release of U.S. CPI data, a whale that opened a long position of 20,000 ETH at $1,936 at the very start of this rally two months ago has closed out the position to lock in profits. The address opened the long position of 20,000 ETH on August 19 at $1,936, and closed it today two months later at $2,421.6, generating a profit of $8.93 million.

Standard Chartered Global Head of Digital Assets Research Geoffrey Kendrick said in a Wednesday report that he still forecasts the stablecoin market capitalization will hit $2 trillion, but the timeline for reaching that target has been pushed back from 2028 to 2030 due to stalled supply growth this year. Over the past 12 months, stablecoin supply has hovered roughly between $300 billion and $320 billion, and currently stands at around $309 billion. Kendrick attributes the slowdown to cyclical rather than structural factors, linked to the weak crypto market, noting that similar historical phases are typically followed by expansion as market conditions recover. The report also highlights that stablecoin usage continues to grow: this year’s average monthly on-chain transaction volume is nearly $10 trillion, up from $4 trillion in 2025, with a record of around $19 trillion logged in May alone. Average monthly turnover has risen from roughly 15 times in 2025 to around 30 times currently. USDT has an average monthly turnover of about 7 times, and is mostly used for U.S. dollar savings in emerging markets. USDC’s average monthly turnover has climbed from around 45 times to roughly 80 times, with the stablecoin increasingly utilized for payments, financial transactions, and payments between early-stage AI agents.
