PayPal’s PYUSD Stablecoin Faces Limited Adoption

Less than 20% of the $44.37 million supply of the dollar-pegged stablecoin has been circulated, meaning the majority are still unreleased.

Only $6.49 million PYUSD stablecoin is now in circulation, according to data from Defillama. Given that the stablecoin’s introduction was over a month ago, this number is shockingly low.

The circulating supply of a stablecoin, which reached its peak at $6.52 million on September 9, has slightly declined over the last 24 hours, indicating a decline in its early adoption stages. On-chain data shows that Paxos Treasury holds $37.88 million of the total supply, with 534 addresses and centralized exchanges dominating the list of holders.

PYUSD adoption has been slower than other stablecoins, such as Aave GHO, which experienced a supply surge within a month of its introduction. Currently, PYUSD ranks 61 among stablecoins by market capitalization, alongside other relatively unknown stablecoins like RAI Reflex Index, Parallel PAR, and NXUSD.
