Definition

The Stablecoin Lending Metrics endpoint provides aggregated metrics for USDT, USDC, DAI, BUSD, and TUSD across supported lending protocols on Ethereum, Arbitrum, Optimism, and Avalanche.

Details

Stablecoins are among the most actively used assets within lending protocols and serve as a strong indicator of protocol activity and health. This endpoint aggregates lending activity data for major stablecoins, enabling insight into:
  • Total deposited
  • Total borrowed
  • Total repaid
  • Total withdrawn
  • Number of flash loans
  • Liquidated USD amounts
  • And more
Metrics are available across all supported lending protocols, such as Aave V2, Aave V3, Compound, and Maker. The data can be queried at the hourly or daily level and supports historical lookbacks, making it suitable for tracking activity over time or correlating lending trends to macro events. For example, analysts can examine spikes in stablecoin borrowing following significant regulatory events or market shocks. This endpoint helps assess risk, liquidity trends, and comparative activity across lending protocols and chains.
