🚨 USDC Supply Is Expanding Fast

Circle has minted $2.25B in USDC year-to-date, with $500M added today alone. That’s not a random number — it’s fresh, deployable liquidity entering the market through the most trusted dollar stablecoin.

Stablecoin issuance is one of the cleanest leading indicators in crypto. Before risk assets move, capital usually parks in USDC first. When supply expands this aggressively, it often signals pre-positioning by funds, desks, and large traders getting ready to rotate into opportunities.

The timing matters. Liquidity expansion like this tends to benefit high-beta sectors first — emerging narratives, smaller caps, and infrastructure plays that move early when capital starts flowing. Watching names like $BREV , $ZKP , and $BABY during this phase makes sense, as early inflows usually chase momentum before headlines catch up.

Smart money doesn’t wait for confirmation candles.

It watches liquidity. And right now, liquidity is quietly turning on.
