MEASURABLE EFFECT

THE EVIDENCE

What to measure

Compare outstanding token supply, reserve composition, weighted maturity, redemption patterns and bill-market size.

THE STRESS CHANNEL

When the mechanism matters

Large net redemptions may require reserve assets to mature or be sold, depending on liquidity management.

Interpretation trap

A stablecoin’s outstanding supply is not a one-for-one measure of direct Treasury purchases.

RESEARCH METHOD

How to verify the claim

Begin with the underlying balance-sheet, contract or market-series evidence rather than a secondary headline. Check the definition of each exposure, its reporting date, and the institution or jurisdiction to which it applies. For stablecoin treasury demand, a useful starting route is: Issuer reserve attestations, Treasury market data and BIS research.
