October's tracked Solana stablecoin card purchases set a monthly record at about $141 million; a separate $36 million weekly reading on Nov. 9 measures activity over a shorter period. The weekly measure covers purchases made through cards, leaving other stablecoin activity outside its scope.

September's total was $113.9 million; October's reading was 24% higher and about seven times the $19.7 million measured in October 2025. That tally counted on-chain spending across nine of 13 Solana card programs being tracked. Off-chain issuer data was excluded, meaning the figure did not include every stablecoin card purchase by Solana users.

The weekly and monthly totals cover different measurement windows, so they cannot establish a week-to-week growth rate.

The spending measure adds to other indicators of stablecoin use on the network, including EconoTimes' earlier report of 14.2 million stablecoin holders on Solana. Holder counts and card purchases describe different kinds of activity.
