Investors have piled into Solana-linked products and on-chain cash, pushing the network back into the spotlight. Based on reports, the total supply of stablecoins sitting on Solana recently climbed to about $15 billion, a new peak that traders say is adding fuel to activity on the chain. Related Reading: 2%–4% In Crypto? Morgan Stanley Thinks That’s The Smart Move Now Stablecoin Liquidity Hits A Milestone The bulk of that supply is held in USDC, which accounts for roughly 75% of stablecoins on Solana, according to analytics cited by market commentators. That concentration has helped trading desks and decentralized apps move larger sums with less friction than on some rival chains. On top of the on-chain cash, US-listed ETFs tied to Solana and related products have recorded fast early takeup, giving institutions a simpler route into the token and staking rewards. The REX-Osprey SOL + Staking ETF, known by the ticker SSK, passed the $100 million AUM mark within days of launch, showing how appetite for regulated access to Solana can materialize quickly. ETFs Bring Fresh Flows And Visibility Reports show that REX-Osprey’s suite of crypto ETFs has now crossed half a billion dollars in combined assets under management, a sign that product innovation on Wall Street is translating into real capital flows into the sector. Market watchers say ETFs let big investors get exposure without interacting directly with wallets and custody solutions. Network Upgrades, Use Cases Part Of The Move Observers point to recent code upgrades and faster settlement as part of why more stablecoins are parked on Solana. Those changes aim to reduce delays and lower costs for traders who move USDC and other dollar-pegged tokens. Although technical gains in and of itself do not produce price movement, they can enhance a network’s attractiveness for high-frequency activity and for projects focused on tokenized assets that require transaction finality.

According to a recent reports, multiple firms have updated their submissions while the regulator is still reviewing.

The Dogecoin price action is now being closely examined through the lens of M2 Global Money Supply trends, with a new analysis pointing to a powerful bullish setup. Charts comparing Dogecoin and the M2 global liquidity curve suggest that the meme coin could soon make a decisive move toward $1. At the same time, long-term technical patterns suggest a potential rise toward a market capitalization in the hundreds of billions of dollars. Dogecoin Price And M2 Global Money Supply Signal $1 Breakout On October 4, crypto analyst Bull Bear Spot on X social media highlighted a striking correlation between Dogecoin’s price and the growth of the M2 Global Money Supply. His accompanying chart showed that as M2 liquidity expands worldwide, DOGE tends to follow in tandem, forming a bullish trajectory. The overlay suggests that the meme coin, currently trading around $0.25, may be gearing up for a renewed push toward the $1 milestone, representing a significant surge of approximately 289%. Related Reading: Historical Risk Levels Say Dogecoin Price Has Not Topped Yet, More Upside Coming? Furthermore, the analyst’s projection and logic are rooted in liquidity cycles. Typically, as central banks and global economies increase their money supply, risk assets, such as cryptocurrencies, often benefit from the spillover of excess capital. Dogecoin’s price structure over time has mirrored these macroeconomic liquidity waves, with previous peaks coinciding with surges in M2 growth, as seen in the chart. According to Bull Bear Spot, DOGE’s current bullish setup indicates that it could “pump at any time,” possibly taking the market by surprise. While Dogecoin is often dismissed as a speculative meme coin, the connection between its price action and global liquidity offers a unique perspective—one where the cryptocurrency could experience one of its most explosive rallies in years if historical patterns repeat. Dogecoin Market Cap Could Hit Hundreds Of Billions Adding to the bullish outlook, crypto market expert EtherNasyonal presented a long-term technical analysis indicating a significant increase in market capitalization. His chart illustrates Dogecoin completing a textbook Cup and Handle formation, a bullish continuation pattern often seen before major upward moves. Related Reading: Dogecoin Price Is About To Complete Another Golden Cross, Why $0.33 Is The Key In his analysis, Dogecoin has already broken above a key resistance line, a level that had capped its price action for months. After the breakout, the meme coin successfully retested this resistance as new support —a critical step in confirming the strength of the breakout. This technical validation sets the stage for what EtherNasyonal calls a potential “DOGE season,” where the coin’s market capitalization could surge toward “$100 billions.” With Dogecoin’s current market cap hovering just under $40 billion, such a move would represent an exponential increase, bringing the meme coin into the same leagues as leading altcoins like Ethereum and Solana. EtherNasyonal’s chart indicates that a confirmed Cup and Handle breakout signals continued momentum that may drive DOGE well beyond previous highs.

Investment flows into crypto exchange-traded products surged to a record level last week, signaling strong demand from large investors. Related Reading: Bitcoin Breaks $123,000 As Rising Open Interest Signals More Action Ahead According to CoinShares, crypto ETPs drew close to $6 billion in new money in the week that ended Friday, the biggest weekly inflow on record. Bitcoin led the move, taking in $3.6 billion alone as traders and funds piled into BTC offerings. Bitcoin Dominates The Week’s Inflows Reports have disclosed that the latest total beat the prior high of $4.4 billion by about 35%. The week’s gains were not evenly spread. While earlier records had been split more between Bitcoin and Ether, this time Bitcoin funds attracted the lion’s share. Ether ETPs still registered strong interest, adding $1.48 billion and bringing year-to-date inflows for Ether to roughly $13.7 billion. Solana ETPs pulled in $706.5 million, and XRP products saw $219 million. These figures show that investors are putting fresh capital into a range of crypto products, even as BTC takes the lead. Macro Headlines Drove Fresh Buying Based on reports, traders pointed to a mix of macro events that likely pushed allocations into crypto. A recent cut to interest rates by the Fed, weaker-than-expected employment numbers, and concerns about a US government shutdown were all cited by market watchers as triggers. Some investors treated crypto as an alternative play while political and economic worries persisted. Markets reacted fast. Bitcoin climbed above $125,000 during the week, a move that pushed total crypto assets under management past $250 billion, reaching a little over $254 billion. Technical Readings And Analyst Targets Add Fuel According to market analysts and on-chain data observers, the supply of Bitcoin on exchanges has dropped to levels not seen in six years. That trend is often read as holders choosing to keep coins off market platforms, which can reduce selling pressure. As long as Bitcoin $BTC holds above $117,650, the Pricing Bands point to $139,800 next. pic.twitter.com/DTPtz3Wj52 — Ali (@ali_charts) October 4, 2025 Glassnode’s pricing bands were used by some analysts to argue that Bitcoin was holding a key support area and that upside toward $139,800 was possible if that support stayed intact. Related Reading: 2%–4% In Crypto? Morgan Stanley Thinks That’s The Smart Move Now Another forecast mentioned a lower time horizon at around $135,000. These targets were used in the market commentary, and they helped shape market expectations during the move up. Trading flows, too, indicated a clear bias: investors were generally long. As James Butterfill, head of research at CoinShares, describes, buyers did not even turn to short investment products at price highs. If this behavior does not reflect an intent to hedge against the uptick, then it reflects confidence that the asset continues to appreciate. Featured image from Unsplash, chart from TradingView
