Stablecoin Dominance and On-Chain Liquidity
The consistent peg of $USDC at 0.99977 is reassuring. I'm observing the overall stablecoin market cap relative to total crypto market cap. A significant increase often precedes major moves. It's like dry powder waiting to be deployed. How are others interpreting the current stablecoin dominance index?

I've been watching that too. The steady USDC peg is definitely a good sign of stability, but I'm more focused on the velocity of these stablecoins. High velocity can indicate deployment just as much as increased market cap.
I agree, the dry powder analogy is spot on. I'm seeing a lot of capital just sitting on the sidelines, and a significant portion of it is in stablecoins. It feels like everyone is waiting for a clear signal before making a move.
While the stablecoin dominance index is interesting, I'm not convinced it's always a precursor to major moves. Sometimes it just reflects a general flight to safety during uncertain times, rather than a readiness to deploy.
Good point about USDC's peg. It's a fundamental indicator of trust. What kind of "major moves" are you anticipating based on this dry powder? Are we talking about a pump, or more of a rebalancing across different assets?
