Unchained and Decrypt agree that SoFiUSD is now live on Polygon alongside its existing availability on Ethereum and Solana, confirming Polygon as its third blockchain. Unchained focuses on functionality, reporting that SoFi members can buy, hold and convert SoFiUSD through the SoFi app, while Decrypt identifies the token as the first stablecoin from a U.S. national bank and places the launch on Polygon Open Money Stack. Neither outlet reports a conflicting figure or contradicts the other on the rollout; the difference is primarily emphasis rather than substance.

Polygon Labs announced that
SoFiUSD is now available on Polygon, adding a third blockchain to the stablecoin’s distribution. Unchained reports that SoFi members can buy, hold and convert SoFiUSD on Polygon directly through the SoFi app. Decrypt describes the deployment as part of Polygon Open Money Stack and says the token now operates alongside its
Ethereum and
Solana versions.
The expansion follows SoFiUSD’s existing support for Ethereum and Solana, with all three networks presented as available within SoFi’s app. Decrypt characterizes SoFiUSD as the first stablecoin issued by a U.S. national bank. Polygon’s ecosystem currently holds $2.64B in total value locked, according to DeFiLlama, giving the latest deployment an established on-chain environment.
Both outlets corroborate the core rollout and the three-network availability, but they highlight different aspects. Unchained concentrates on the customer-facing actions and app integration, whereas Decrypt emphasizes the token’s national-bank issuance and its placement within Polygon Open Money Stack. No material conflict appears between their accounts of the launch.
SoFiUSD was trading at $0.999143, unchanged over 24 hours and down 0.04% over seven days, with a reported market capitalization of $321.01M. DeFiLlama separately lists the circulating supply at $320.96M. The broader market is broadly lower:
Bitcoin fell 2.97% over 24 hours, the total crypto market capitalization stands at $2.45T, and the Fear & Greed index is at 28, indicating fear. Ethereum trades at $1,994.94, down 2.85% over 24 hours and 16.08% over seven days; Solana is at $80.74, down 3.72% and 14.89% over those respective periods.
The deployment broadens the network reach of a bank-issued stablecoin while Polygon’s TVL has declined 5.4% over seven days. Relevant indicators for the rollout include whether Polygon’s locked value stabilizes, whether SoFiUSD remains close to its dollar peg and whether the new network attracts sustained activity. The launch itself adds functionality rather than establishing a direct cause for any current market movement.
Since this brief published about 11 hours ago, Ethereum (ETH) has moved from $1,994.94 to $2,002.05 — +0.36%.
The chart plots ETH's price: grey is the move before this brief published, the vertical dashed line marks the moment it published, the horizontal dashed line is the price then, and the coloured area is the move since — from TLT's market data (daily resolution). It shows what happened after the news, not that the news caused it; many factors move prices. Not financial advice.
At today's peer-to-peer rate, 1 ETH ≈ ₦2.82M (about $2,002.05), down 2.9% over 24 hours. The naira itself trades about 4.2% above the official rate on the P2P market, so a Nigerian buyer's effective cost differs from the headline dollar price.
