Ethereum and its Layer-2s handled 77% of stablecoin transfers, with Base leading in volume over mainnet.

Between July and October 2026, Ethereum mainnet and its Layer-2 networks settled $16.75 trillion in stablecoin transfers, representing 77% of all stablecoin volume across blockchains. Notably, Base, a Layer-2 network, processed $8.5 trillion, surpassing Ethereum mainnet's $7.1 trillion. This shift highlights users' preference for lower-cost Layer-2 solutions within the Ethereum ecosystem, driven mainly by large institutional and DeFi activities. For investors and developers, ignoring Layer-2 networks like Base could mean missing significant stablecoin transfer activity and fee opportunities.
