JPYC stablecoin circulation has surpassed ¥2 billion, signaling growing interest in yen-based DeFi. However, liquidity in the JPYC/USDC trading pool remains shallow at around $275,000, limiting larger transactions and cross-market opportunities.

The shift of stablecoin capital to Ethereum, especially USDC, is crucial for JPYC’s deeper integration into DeFi, but until liquidity improves, JPYC’s DeFi potential remains constrained.
