Roughly $1.61 billion in fresh inflows poured into USDC between May 3 and May 10, 2026, giving the stablecoin one of the strongest weekly performances among the sector’s largest issuers. Sky’s USDS claimed the bronze position with a $7.88 billion market cap, though the token clearly endured a bruising week after slipping 6.37%. Meanwhile, Sky’s DAI held steady in fourth place at $4.66 billion, managing a modest 0.63% increase over the same stretch.
