Samsung Wallet Adds USDC on Solana for Eligible US Galaxy Users

Samsung Wallet’s USDC account on Solana is now available to eligible Galaxy owners in the United States, according to a Solana Foundation update.

Samsung Wallet’s USDC account on Solana is now available to eligible Galaxy owners in the United States, according to a Solana Foundation update. USDC (USDC) is trading at $0.9998. This is an original TLT brief based on reporting by NewsBTC, with live market data added, as of Sat, 07 Nov 2026 17:30:04 UTC.

Why it matters

The rollout gives a defined group of US Galaxy users direct access to USDC within a Solana-based wallet environment. It also places a consumer wallet product alongside a stablecoin with roughly $70.5 billion in market value, while Solana remains under short-term market pressure.

Key takeaways
  • Samsung Wallet’s USDC account launched on Solana on November 2.
  • Access is limited to eligible US Galaxy owners.
  • USDC trades near $1, with a $70.52 billion market cap.
  • Solana fell 6.67% over seven days amid broad market weakness.

NewsBTC reported that a Solana Foundation update dated November 5 confirmed Samsung Wallet’s stablecoin account went live on November 2. The service is available to eligible US Galaxy owners, establishing the rollout’s launch date, user eligibility and geographic scope. The report identifies USDC as the stablecoin offered through the account on Solana.

As a single-source report, the information is not independently corroborated in the supplied coverage. The available summary confirms the November 2 launch and limits access to eligible US Galaxy owners in the United States, but does not provide additional details about eligibility requirements, supported devices, transaction features or the account’s broader expansion schedule.

The announcement arrives against mixed conditions in the broader crypto market. DeFiLlama reports Galaxy’s total value locked at $116.92 million, down 0.3% over seven days, while USDC’s circulating supply stands at $70.68 billion. Solana-related market activity is therefore occurring alongside a measurable decline in the reported Galaxy TVL figure.

At the time of the report, USDC was priced at $0.999782, up 0.02% over 24 hours and down 0.02% over seven days, with a market capitalization of $70.52 billion. Solana traded at $89.59, down 0.93% over 24 hours and 6.67% over seven days. The total crypto market capitalization was $2.61 trillion, the overall market was described as flat, Bitcoin was down 0.18% over 24 hours, and the Fear & Greed index stood at 25, labelled Extreme Fear. The next points to watch are the rollout’s availability to eligible users, continued adoption of USDC accounts and how Solana and Galaxy TVL develop against this backdrop.
