GHO and FDUSD Stablecoins See Massive Supply Growth in Recent Debut
In a recent turn of events, the cryptocurrency world has been introduced
to two stablecoins anchored to the U.S. dollar — Aave’s
gho (GHO) and
First Digital’s stablecoin FDUSD. These dollar-tied tokens have rapidly gained momentum, witnessing substantial growth in market capitalization soon after their debut.
In mid-July, the decentralized finance (defi) lending protocol
Aave approved a governance proposal and unveiled the platform’s gho (GHO) stablecoin. On
July 17, 2023, there were
2,510,269 GHO tokens in circulation, and now there are more than
11.25 million TO. This implies that GHO’s supply expanded by over
348% within the last 16 days.
The 24-hour trading volume of
GHO has hovered around $1.52 million, and Balancer’s Vault accommodates
59.2255% of the entire
GHO supply. The present supply and market capitalization of GHO position it as the
31st largest stablecoin in August 2023.
While a
348% supply surge is impressive, FDUSD has exhibited an even
more remarkable ascent since its introduction. On
July 26, 2023, etherscan stats revealed that FDUSD’s supply was approximately
1,114,126 just a week ago.
An estimated
96.0563% of FDUSD’s supply is held in a wallet named “Binance 14,” while
1.4325% resides in another wallet called “Binance 15.”
