Circle added 750 million USDC to Solana through three mint transactions recorded on Sept. 25, with one 250 million transfer and two more 250 million mints spaced hours apart in U.S. Eastern Time. The transactions were carried out by USDC’s authorized minting infrastructure and are recorded onchain as new supply on Solana.

Key claims & sources

✓
An onchain transaction showed 250 million USDC minted on Solana by the stablecoin’s authorized minting infrastructure.
✓
The mint created new USDC supply on Solana, and the transaction by itself does not show that a buyer took the full amount.
✓
The USDC Treasury completed two 250 million-token mints on Sept. 25.
✓
Those two mints were recorded hours apart in U.S. Eastern Time.

What it means

USDC users and Solana market participants see fresh supply appear onchain, and that is visible immediately in the network’s liquidity. The mint records themselves do not show a purchaser for the full amount, so the observable change is the new issuance rather than a confirmed transfer to one buyer.

In practice, the ledger now shows two 250 million-token USDC mints on Sept. 25 separated by hours in U.S. Eastern Time. What changed is the timing and number of issuance events on Solana; what did not change is that each mint is still just a recorded supply addition onchain.
