Stablecoin Influx to Binance Surpasses $2.1 Billion

Stablecoin influx to Binance hits $2.1 billion amid Fed rate cut talks.

On September 17, 2025, the influx of stablecoins to the cryptocurrency exchange Binance reached $2.1 billion amid a Federal Reserve meeting on reducing the key interest rate for the first time since December 2024. This is according to data from the analytical platform CryptoQuant.

The regulator’s decision aligned with investors’ expectations. Traders were accumulating stablecoins to open positions following the Federal Reserve’s announcement.

“Dry powder for a potential rally in the crypto market is accumulating: stablecoin deposits on exchanges grew ahead of the interest rate decision. According to the latest data, the influx of USDT and USDC (ERC-20) amounted to $2.1 billion on Binance, $1.6 billion on Coinbase, and another $3 billion on other platforms,” note CryptoQuant experts.

The research also records an increase in altcoin deposits on exchanges:

“Over the past seven days, the total inflow volume reached 55,000 units, whereas in May and June, the figure remained within 20,000–30,000. Most deposits are on Binance — 25,000, followed by Coinbase with 6,000, and another 15,000 distributed among other platforms,” note CryptoQuant.

The number of active addresses interacting with exchanges increased to 42,000 from 23,000 at the beginning of September. Binance accounts for 19,000 addresses, while Coinbase has 6,000.
