On-chain analyst Ember said on X that USDG's market cap grew from $300 million to $3.5 billion within a year, with $1.95 billion of that sitting on OKX's X Layer. The stablecoin, which gets little mainstream attention, climbed to sixth place by scale thanks to real use cases like yield on stablecoins, Boost and payments on X Layer. Ember attributed the steady growth to OKX Wallet's large, active user base, adding that X Layer achieved through product modules what other stablecoins usually accomplish only with heavy subsidies.

USDG is not a stablecoin most people recognize, and it gets relatively little promotion or media exposure. X Layer supports USDG mainly through real use cases including stablecoin yield, Boost and payments, which helped it become the sixth-largest stablecoin by scale.
USDG's growth over the past year has been steady rather than pushed up quickly by heavy subsidies. Ember said this reflects the large, active user base of OKX Wallet: even with the market currently quiet, X Layer has used its product modules to deliver results that other stablecoins can only reach with significant spending.
