Wednesday, June 3, 2026 · SOLTRACER market wrap
The payments story got a heavyweight endorsement today. The chart did not cooperate.
SOL market moves
SOL printed $74.14, down 8.7% over 24 hours and 11.4% over 7 days. It is off 11.6% over 30 days. Market cap was about $42.9B, with $3.68B in 24-hour volume, a sizable turnover for a down day.
On-chain data
DeFi TVL: about $5.00B, down from ~$5.38B a week ago.
DEX volume: $2.43B for the prior day (up 9.3%) and $13.10B over 7 days.
Stablecoins: about $15.43B in USD-pegged supply on Solana.
Key news
Mastercard adds stablecoin settlement. Mastercard expanded its settlement capabilities on June 3, adding intraday, weekend and holiday settlement plus on-chain settlement in regulated stablecoins, with Solana among the supported networks. That plugs Solana into a network spanning 3.7 billion cards and 210+ countries and territories. (Source: Solana Foundation June roundup)

The SOLTRACER take
Price is doing one thing and adoption is doing another. A top-five card network naming Solana as a settlement rail is a structural win, and stablecoin supply is holding above $15B even as SOL sells off. Our read: watch whether payments volume follows the headlines. Track it live on the Dashboard and the Top 20.
