STABLE · a monthly release that is about to be switched off.

Despite the name, STABLE is not a stablecoin. It is the staking and governance token of Stable, a layer-1 chain where you pay gas in a stablecoin instead. All 100B were created in one event at launch and no more can ever be made; about 25.77B counts as tradable today.

Sell pressure. ~2.67B STABLE a quarter, from one source only — the foundation letting its ecosystem allocation out at 888.89M a month. Nothing is minted and nothing vests.

Buy pressure. Zero last quarter — no buyback, no burn. But rewritten tokenomics lock roughly 8.92B back up on Oct 5 2026, and nothing releases again until Dec 8 2027.

Net. +10.35% to market over the last quarter, then −30.14% next — the float is scheduled to fall back to where it started.

Sell pressure
1. Protocol inflation
0

Stable cannot create a single new token. The whole 100B was issued in one event at launch and the chain confirms it — total supply reads exactly 100,000,000,000 and has not moved. Staking pays rewards too, but in the stablecoin the chain charges for gas, not in STABLE, so securing the network mints nothing.

permanent · no change
2. Vesting unlocks
0

The team and the investors hold half the supply between them and none of it has unlocked. The original terms opened a one-year cliff on Dec 8 2026, already past the end of this quarter — and the rewritten terms published in August pushed the first release out to Dec 8 2027. Nothing here reaches the market in either window.

3. Foundation + unscheduled unlocks
~2.67B STABLE

This is the whole sell side. The foundation holds the 40% ecosystem allocation, released 8% of the supply on day one, and has been letting the remaining 32B out at 888.89M a month ever since — 32B divided by 36 months, to the cent. Three of those releases landed inside this quarter, on Jun 8, Jul 8 and Aug 8 2026, so the row is 2.67B. The float has gone from 18B on day one to 25.77B, and every token of that difference is foundation supply.

4. Long-term locked or bankruptcy
0

The chain launched in December 2025. There is no estate, no trustee, no creditor distribution, and no expiring lock that could hand supply back to the market.

permanent · no change
Buy pressure
1. Programmatic buyback
0

Stable buys back nothing. Gas is charged in a stablecoin and collects in a treasury that validators can pass to their delegators — still in that stablecoin. None of it is ever converted into STABLE. Routing revenue into buybacks has been discussed publicly and no commitment has been made either way.

checked · Aug 27 2026
2. Protocol fee burn
0

There is no burn, and we checked it two ways rather than one. The burn addresses hold exactly nothing at both ends of the window, and total supply reads the same 100,000,000,000 at both ends too. Neither moved. Structurally there is no path for one to move: transactions on this chain are paid for in a stablecoin, so STABLE is never consumed by using the network.

checked · Aug 27 2026
3. Foundation buy
0

No public evidence of release in window — monitored. No dated open-market purchase of STABLE by the foundation or anyone acting for it landed inside the quarter.

checked · Aug 27 2026
4. New long-term lock
0

Nothing was locked inside this quarter, but a very large lock is dated and published for the next one. The rewritten tokenomics take effect on Oct 5 2026, and on that date the foundation tokens released since launch above the 8% day-one figure are locked back up alongside everyone else's — about 8.92B, roughly a third of everything trading. After that nothing unlocks again until Dec 8 2027.
